Best RV Accessory?

[pegger]

rock, The cooler is a Coleman about 6yrs old it works well, although things get a bit wet after a few days. Inside and on the road it is plugged into the 12v outlet by the entertainment center. Outside I have rigged up a 12v outlet with a long cord in the battery compartment.

I have a colemnan cooler also and also bought the 110 adapter for it so that it plugs right into the 110 on the outside of the TT. It also works great.

My Cabelas Camp Kitchen is a must. Folds up into a neat canvassuit case. You can cook up a storm on this baby. And under the center table is a sink to wash the dishes. plenty of storage underneath and plenty of counter space.

Let us count the ways I lover her and her collection of Patio lights, mind you most of them we have in pairs because of the length of the awning. 1. Lanters (flickering), 2. Tiffinies 3.Chille Peppers. 4. US. Flags 5. Globe lights. 6. Old Miss. 7. Texas Long horns. 8. LSU. 9. Titans 10. Saints. 11. Colts. 12. Vikings. 13. Houston Texans. 14. Pumpkins. 15. Turkeys. 16. Christmas lights 17. Valentine lights.... She is currently looking for Schnauzer Lights. Patrick Please do not find these But I did trick her, I threw away the jokers in her card decks to save on weight

Frank, When Janet finds those schnauzer ligfhts, do NOT post it...I don't want Lindy hanging them on my awning....ok, her awning.

[fhenn]

Walt it will not come from me, I think she has way too many lights as it is, and I have to change them. Friday nights College Team lights Saturday night pro teams. Our only problem is Patrick on the left coast who loves light projects. He is responsible for all of the College Lights and the Pro lights. Janet has order so many from that unnamed outfit, that they have a direct line to her, and a parking spot reserved in her name

[shoetravel]

Hey Frank, if you don't want Janet spending so much on party lights show her how to make her own. I got the idea from this page...

I am sure you could find a way to help her on this one... I still haven't figured out how to get the bottles on the string but do have enough for multiple strings...

[fhenn]

Nice try Patrick She wants her puppy string of lights Beside Abita Beer dose not come in plastic containers, or for that matter cans

Has many uses around the campsite. I have used it for installing awning lights, grill stand, cooler stand, place to sit, impromtu work bench,backstop for the horseshoe pits, easy step up to the truck bed to unload firewood, generator stand (sothe gennywouldn't sit in the mud), did I mention installing the awning lights?

Hey Shoetravel, what are the dimensions of that step? Both folded up and set up.



Thanks in advance

[shoetravel]

Sorry for the late reply, I'll have to check tomorrow with the measuring tape. It folds up small enough to fit in the front or side storage. Unfolds tall enough to set up awning lights. And works as a cooler stand high enough to make fetchin' cold ones real easy...

[canacamper]

All the measurements are in the link provided, look in the specifications tab.

[shoetravel]

Canacamper, thanks for pointing that out. Quite frankly I just got home, its dark and raining outside. I don't feel like going out to measure... sorry Bipeflier.

By the way, how is that CF31RE? Mywife and I are really liking that floorplan and with it being available in a Patriot edition are thinking about trading inwithin the next year.

Shoetravel, I bought one of those several years ago when I was building our gazeebo. It has proven to be one of the most useful things I've ever purchased. I use it all the time in my shop, house, yard, and RV.



The platform is about 40"X12", and the legs extend to about 20". The only caveat I would add is that it can be a tad unsteady when the legs are extended, so just move cautiously. I would really recommend this thing as one of the "Best RV Accessories!"

[shoetravel]

Yep, very useful item. I bought mine to stand on when I was working under the hood of my lifted, off-road bronco. I soon found a lot of other uses. This past summer when I was re-packing the wheel bearings on the trailer I set it up by the side of the trailer and it was a nice bench to lay out the tools and parts while working. And there was the time we were camping with some friends in the national forest, the only level spot to put the horseshoe pits was near my trailer where my daughter was playing. We set the platform on its side at the back of the pit to stop the stray shoes so they wouldn't go rolling thru the play area. Also use it when washing the trailer and cleaning the awning...

One of the best accessories for a dirty job, the Flush King. I boughtthis item several years ago and used it with another 5th that did not have black tank flush kit. It still is useful, it lets me see the progress of the black tank flush and it is great for backflushing the grey tanks.
