A lot depends on how much you want to spend. If you want to spend a lot, there are things like the barker tongue jack or the magellan roadmate for RV's (forget what it is actually called). Moderate would be the zero gravity recliners (these are wonderful!!!!) or what shape is his patio mat in? Get him a replacement. Cheaper are new awning lights or a gift card to camping world or a new wooden name/welcome sign for the TT. Even better is either you or the grandkids (if there are any) going on a camping trip and having a cookout as a family. My dad was always happiest when he got to have a nice family dinner with his kids and grandkids (we are too far away for that to happen now but it was his favorite).

Why would they sell a hose spreader if you couldn't spread the hose?

The few post so far deal with material items.. How about if you agree to go family camping, when you get older. Cost nothing and it will be the best gift ever.
You Dad probably has everything he needs already, he has you doesn't he?
If you are desperate, for a gift, just give him a hug! I'am serious...
Us Men really do not need alot of gifts. We just need to know the one' s so near and dear to us , know they they are loved. Dad's are simple people.
The absolute best to you!!!!

I have the x chocks, and yes they do work. Great idea! I was also going to suggest some new tacky lights for the awning. Good luck!

I wish that I could be there but he is 3,000 miles from me!! What do you guys think of a pair of X Chocks? If you use them, do they work?

You might want to find out what kind (make/model) trailer he has or the distance between the trailer axles to make sure you get the right size. Some trailers (ie many crossroads) have a wider stance between axles requiring larger x chocks.
