This is going to be my first trailer, so I know I'm going to need a wdh, probably a Equal-i-zer. Also, a friend who who camps said to get the following:
The best sewer hose they have
fresh water hose
Brass pressure reducer
and a good set of chocks
I've gone threw the sales game with cars, trucks, and motorcycles more times than I'd like to admit, but this is my first experience with trailers.
Many RV dealers provide you a "complimentary starter kit" that typically contains a roll of TP, an electrical plug adapter, a cheap sewer hose and an even cheaper potable water hose. As others post, not even that is free, you pay for it in the price of the trailer. I already had stuff from our first RV that I kept, all of it paid for by me and recommended by longtime RV'ers, some bought from RV websites, some from CW, all of it better quality than the "starter kit".
If you need a hitch, you can probably find the hitch you want elsewhere and at a bigger savings than an RV dealer might "give" you. If you can install it and adjust it yourself you would be money ahead. Our most recent RV purchase was a travel trailer, and I needed a hitch so I let the dealer order and install it. Probably spent $350 more for it than the same hitch could be purchased from any other Reese dealer in the area. Live and learn................
