Congratulations! Hope you enjoy it. When we got our last year, there were several things that we got right away:
1.50 amp surge protector to protect the electrical system. You never know what you will encounter at a park.
2. Water flow pressure regulator for the water intake hose.
3. A water hose. These are white not like a regular garden hose.
4. Hose to empty the gray and black tanks. We got a clear connector between the hose and the connection on the 5th wheel. That way we can see when the black tank is empty of debris.(Not fun, but part of the 5th wheel experience.
5. Chocks for the wheels. We didn't want ours to roll away while camping.
6. A 50amp to 30 amp adapter for those campgrounds that don't offer 50amp service.
7. RV toilet paper. The stuff at home should not go into the RV toilet.
8. RV black tank chemicals.
9. Clip board and pen: to write down all of the things that need to be fixed during the warranty period. We have a Cougar by Keystone and found that quality control wasn't their best feature. After having a few things fixed early in, we have not had any problems since.
I hope this helps.
