With all that in mind, is it wise, necessary or a waste of money to get the following things done on yearly basis:
Wash and wax with a UV roof protectant. ~$220
Campingworld 45 point inspection ~$300
Maintenance on the water heater. ~$85
Maintenance on the AC. ~$100
Maintenance on the furnace. ~$149
Maintenance on the breaks and bearings. ~$300

My RV is 15 years old and in excellent condition. I do not do any of this. I am just finishing up my yearly maintenance. I go over every square inch of the exterior looking for issues, mainly looking for areas that need resealing. This year I am rechaulking around the running lights. I am no longer a full timer so I do need to drain my water heater each winter. I replaced the ignitor a couple of years ago, otherwise I cannot imagine what qualifies and maintenance on this unit. I have never had "maintenance" on the A/C unit. I did replace the filter for the first time last year. It was still in pretty good condition. The AC unit is sealed and does not require any sort of maintenance. The furnace is sealed with no maintenance required. I have never even removed the cover. If you are not moving much, you should not need to repack the wheel bearings. My tires maintain air pressure pretty much for an entire year. If you are losing pressure, you should have the tire checked carefully.
I am also about finished with waxing. I applied ZEP several years ago. It is still in good condition.
