First-Season Starter Kit

Everything a new travel trailer owner needs, ordered by when you need it: leaving the dealer lot, pulling into the site, hooking up, the first night, the first dump.

Leveling & Chocks

Getting the trailer level and getting it to stop moving are two different jobs needing two different products. This is which is which, and what to buy for each.

Power & Surge Protection

A campground pedestal is an unknown piece of wiring you plug your home into. This is how to check it, what protects you, and what a cheap device will not catch.

Sewer & Water

The part of RVing nobody demonstrates at the dealership. Done right it takes ten minutes and you never think about it. Done wrong it is the story you tell for years.

Towing & Security

The gear that matters between the dealer lot and the campsite: seeing behind you, keeping the trailer attached, knowing about a tire before it fails, and still owning it in the morning.
