My parents have everything they need, (I think). I am looking for gift ideas for Christmas. What is a must have? They have a 38 foot 5th wheel. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance!!

Yes, if they don't have some type of wheel chocks, that's my recommendation too! They greatly help the movement in our 5ver. Or if they like campfires there are some neat gas "campfires" too. We have one to use if there is a burn ban or no fire ring.

I have never seen these before. Are they steady/solid ? Or do they have some wobble in them?

If they are solid I'll be adding this to my christmas list.


It's solid. Had one on our first 5er and loved it but forgot to take it off before I traded it in so bought another one. Not sure why more people don't use them.

Year's membership to Passport America (if they are not members already)

Gas card.... (their preferred brand of gas/diesel if you can find out)

Gift cards are so un-personal and why sales of them are now declining year-over-year. Might as well just hand em cash.

How about a set of zero-gravity reclining patio/lawn chairs? My wife and I fight over the one nice one we have:)

I have hinted to my kids many times, Camping Passes!!!! I know Missouri State Parks offer gift cards. Get them passes for one of their favorite parks! You could set up a weekend or week long family camping trip. Like was previously mentioned, something for the RV would probably just get discarded unless you know exactly what the want or need. Good luck and let us know what you get them. Maybe they will get lucky and get some CAMPING PASSES!!!!!

Thank you all so much, I really appreciate the responses and am starting to realize that this might be way over my head. Lol..I guess you could really nickle and dime it to death.I'm guessing no more than $200, Thanks again.

Why don't you give us a price range that you're interested in paying. In our family, we're the ones with the fifth wheel who have "everything". But if I know the approximate range that you're comfortable spending, I'm sure I can come up with a list of potential candidates for you.

Walmart, Lowes or some supermarket chain giftcard.

Tough to actually get something for the 5er. Upgrades & such are very personal & researched before purchase. Good intentions but useless things stay in the box & take up valuable space.
