Spare Parts To Carry

Just when does it end? From past experience I carry a generator board, HWH pump, HWH misc. parts, spare tire, starter, AC unit caps, Lord knows how many tools I probably don't need, etc. I carry so many parts that I had to make a list of them and keep it in the parts bin as I just can't recall how many parts I have. When does it end? Today the topic I just read was water pumps. Do I need to carry a spare water pump as I don't want to be without water? Some places I camp are far from decent supply places.

When you Full Time you soon realize that you just can NOT plan for all situations and therefore carrying spare parts is futile.

Deal with situations as they occur.

Cash, debit, credit -----size/cost of issue dictates which is used.
Is it time for your medication or mine?

Where do you camp that FedEx can't get to you?

I used to carry spare bulbs, but now they're all LED. I do have a spare tire.

I suppose the toad and bike can count as two spare vehicles. ๐Ÿ™‚

yeas ago I read a column in one of the RV magazines of a women who wrote of her husband who would go visiting the neighbors and come back to tell her, " guess what he has?" and then go out and buy one. He had a guy who rode with him, his name was "Justin Case". some times I think it was my wife who wrote the article.

Yup, if it won't move spray it with WD40 and if it does move use duct tape.

If your a survivalist, or just really enjoy RVing in the back country I guess the list of spare parts is almost unending. Serpentine belt, generator parts, water supply parts, hydraulics for the slides and jacks; and these are just a few of the vital units, forgetting the superfluous like sound and entertainment, oven, lighting. As for me, I too have accumulated many spare parts which I have lost track of, so my major accessory is my Credit Card and Cell Phone. I don't leave home without them.
