4. RV Mat - I'd wait on this and see if it's something you'd use.
5. cooler - do you want to freeze items or just keep them cold? How long will your trips be? Will you be able to refill ice during your trips?
6. I'd do a few short trips using stuff you have at home. Then you can see what will work best for you.
