Question What is something in or about your coach you could not live without in the next coach

[Neal]

What is something you love about your RV that you could not live without if you got a new RV?

For me - it's electric gate valves. I cannot stress enough what a dream this is to be able to dump tanks without going outside and crawling under a slide. For those that don't have this I cannot sell this hard enough to get it. It is a dream and I could not see having another RV without being able to dump tanks from inside the coach.

Heated floors!

Electric gate valves sound wonderful - I can only imagine. I purchased a 12 year old RV (full timer) and I would love to have the manuals covering every item the RV has. I spend hours researching filters, hoses, motors, and different replacement parts, etc...so I'll keep my wish list fairly simple = manuals!

electric gate valves

...with automatic tank flush? And, roll-up Sanicon hose with auto-connect/disconnect? This is camping, @Neal; gotta have some reason to get outside.

I suppose a full-wall slide can present a bit of a challenge there. I haven't had to ponder that one yet.

TV across from theater seating (or recliners)
Full time bedn - no folding when slides are in.
Pantry drawers

Heated floor. On cold mornings the tile is definitely cold.

The ability to easily to get to the rear and use the rear bath when the slides are in when you stop for an overnight and just want to sleep. Easy to take shower have coffee and head out.

X3 on heated floors. They are the bomb!

Fancy electric gate valves? Dumping once or twice a week doesn't bother me but heated floors ...... that makes me jealous. . What about the fireplace? When we first bought our coach my wife laughed at it ..... said it was a waste of space. Now she can't live without it.

I bought newer one time, not again. Myself being one that can appreciate small carbon foot print. A must have but not found item would be energy efficient.

 

[J&JD]

Agree

Totally agree.

Certainly wouldn’t want to have a pusher without a Jake Brake, especially here out west.

Heated floors and I'm with @skychs wife, I love my fireplace!

+1 on the Electric Gate Valves. This is the one thing that always gets used...and has saved me from having countless headaches. Having the Wet Bay under the Full Wall Slide was a real pain...now, it’s not a problem anymore.

Come on you guys. Getting out in the pouring rain/snow/sleet in the middle of the night to empty the tanks is my jam! Just can’t wait to have to do it. ?

I can buy that logic! Even remembering to ALWAYS wear a hat when I go to the wet bay, I've had my share of headaches.

I will never buy another unit that doesn’t have both a grey and black tank rinse.

That may be a bit limiting. Are there ANY RVs that have a rinse for the gray tank? I am not aware of any.
