Garmin GPS, Fast Lane transponder, Sewer hose extension tube, valve stem extensions, spare tire (just in case). That's it for now, it's only 8 months old. I'm sure I will be able to come up with some new idea's as time goes on.

Solar screen shades (90%) for windshield and front side windows. Keeping sun and heat out has been very good.

Added lots of things over the years, but these are some of my favorites:

-Hadley Ambassador Air Horns on Roof
-Garmin GPS
-Subwoofer for in-dash Stereo
-New Shower Head
-Driving Lights (fog lights)
-Side Camera (hooked to back up monitor)
-Outside 15 inch LCD TV on a swing arm in storage compartment

Favorite Toys:
- EZ Level (the thing with the lights on it and helps me know when I am level)
- RV Quick Shades ( I just got these sent to me last week. I seen them at the FMCA Rally in St Paul and they looked interesting but they didn't have my size in Black at the show. They attach to the inside of the front windshield with suction cups and provide privacy and keep the sun out while still being able to see out through the window. Used them once last weekend and love these things!!)

Switched solenoid CG water shutoff
================================================================
I haven't seen nor heard of this. Where did you get it?

I usually shut off water when I remember it. Had a line going into the toilet break one time while in town.


I got a 120vac ASCO 3/4" "normally closed" soleniod valve off eBay ($25). Installed it inline in my utility bay and wired it to a lighted switch (Radio Shack, $4) in the galley near a juction box to facilitate an electrical source. A easy mod that allows us to cut off CG water pressure upstream of the rig's plumbing at the flip of a switch. Also a handy shutoff when filling the water tank.

I found it was a PITA to turn off CG water manually at the outside tap, and once having done so, usually forgetting to turn it back on when I returned "home" and having to go back outside again.

Now it is quick and convenient, so we never leave the rig pressurized.


I just have to respond to these posts. Last year while on vacation, we were taking our usual evening stroll. We rounded a corner and what a sight we did see! It was like a gusher up in the air! The poor guys water hose had developed a hole and the water was spraying all over the side of his coach. There wasn't anyone at home so we turned off their water at the faucet and kept an eye out for their return. We told them as soon as we saw them get back home what had happened.
I can understand not wanting the pipes in the coach to spring a leak, but what about this type of situation? We now turn our water off whenever we leave the campground and yes, DH inevitably has to go outside and turn it back on when we return. But that is a small price to pay.
