We use everything...including the oven, outside shower and yes the RVQ grill that came with our TT. I grew up camping in a pop up and I'm still tickled about all the features of our TT that I never had as a child.

We also don't use our TV ant. (I didn't think they still broadcasted tv that way anymore). We also haven't used our KZ outside grill. Oven used x1 when it rained outside so no campfire.

We use pretty much everything except the Microwave. Outdoor shower for watering the dogs, oven for making birthday cupcakes, antenna mainly for news in the mornings. We camp year round so inthe winter all these come in very handy..

I used to never use the Generator.....trying to save the fuel, and the hours for re-sale. Then I did the math on how much it would actually cost me to run it to let the kids watch movies on the 3 different, non-front, tv's, and run the microwave to make snacks. Decided that the peace and quiet of happy kids on a long haul was well worth it!

I should get a solar system and have the best of both worlds.

We don't use the oven other than for storage, the jacknife sofa has never been used as a bed as the dinette seating. Also don't use the folding door between sofa and bed. Would like to remove sofa and put in recliner chairs for more comfortable seating while watching TV. The outside shower works well for bathing the dog.

I just remembered. We don't use the outdoor speakers because we don't want to annoy neighbors in the CGs and Resorts.
