the RV dealer should have a parts department and a brick & mortar floor where you can get all this stuff. I had a list of stuff I needed and then asked the parts department to walk me thru (I had called them in advance to ask what I had on board after pickup was completed). I had looked up prices ahead of time, so the only thing I didn't buy there was a power cord extension (50 amp service) cause I could get it for 1/2 that cost online. you may not have that luxury.
we had stocked up on other things.. plates, silverware, broom, ...
and had the tow vehicle packed with storage containers of stuff to move into the rv. (as it was 1300 miles from home)..
we still ended up going to the hardware store and walmart for other stuff. toilet paper holders!
edit:
as part of our packing, we looked at all the features of the 5th wheel and brought something that would allow us to test it out.
metal something for the microwave on convection,
something small to cook on the stove (pots & pans, utensils)
DVD for the dvd player.
we needed heat the 1st night, and a/c the second night.
(600 mile daily travel, its harsh, but we had a schedule to keep).
We are going away for a week, next week in our little pop top TT we have & are going to make a list of everything we use in it as a start.
Will specialized items for the FW that you mentioned previously be cheaper from a dealer like PPl or Camping world?
