Basic Rv starter kits. Your dealer should throw one in as part of finalizing the sale, many do.

From the FAQs on this forum:

Camping List

It is a big list, and you don't need everything on it--but it is good to look it over to see what is important to you.

Also, bring along a pad of paper and a digital word processor (pencil) and write down what you need to get before taking off on your next trip.

Have fun!

The things everyone mentioned are great but a few extras might be folding chairs, mat for outside, griddle and cooking supplies for outside (we enjoy cooking outside), wood and things for campfire just to mention a few. Another thing we have found needed is windbreaker for the cool mornings.

We always camped at a CG close to home when we got a new RV. That way we were not too far if we needed to run & get something. Some people camp on their driveway the first couple nights and they are even closer.
