Welcome! We're new to our MH and I just asked the same question about "must haves"! Great minds think alike! Y'all are going to have tons of fun...we are picking up our Tiffin on Wednesday; cannot wait!

Welcome to the forum. This might help you a lot. It looks like a good list. The funny thing is just when you think you have it all there is something else you need or somebody has a neat thing that makes something easier. We have been camping for 20 years and it still happens to us.

These lists are super helpful. Thank you. We've taken her out a few times now and are starting to learn the ropes.

Can't believe I didn't take any...was such a crazy busy 2 days. We picked it up, left our truck for the tow pkg install, and while going over the coach with the dealership guys, discovered leveling jack issue. So we spent one night in the new MH then drove it back to the dealership for the leveling jack fix, picked up our truck, and drove home. Needless to say we were disappointed but understand this kind of thing happens and the dealership service team could not have been nicer/pleasant/more apologetic...so, now it's a matter of when it's ready to pick back up. Ugh...hoping your delivery goes a lot smoother. Advice; ask your service team to check out the hours on your generator and check the leveling jacks BEFORE your pick-up day. The jacks had to come from Tiffin and that was going to take a couple days. (Another thing they discovered was our generator had whatever number of hours on it that indicates a service, so we also had to wait for that. Apparently our MH had been at a show before we bought it.) Makes for a very long pick-up day!

Excited to get it back and will post pix when we do!

Great lists! I would add that copies of rabies certifications for pets need to be on that list. Most of the fam camps we've stayed in require those certifications! Can't leave home without those traveling fur babies!
