Hi There,
We just picked up our new 2018 Rpod 180 at Pete's RV in Indiana yesterday! I have been reviewing the chat room a lot in the last few months. I remember I saw a list of things to buy for your new Rpod at one point; and now I can't find it. It was a long list of items to consider getting. Anyone know where that list is on here? We have nothing! Just the Rpod, our tow vehicle (a Ford F150), with a sway bar. We are getting ready for a cross country trip in August! And will do a few weekend trips here in the midwest before we go. Woohoo!!!

Welcome to the forum and congratulations on your new Pod!   

Always happy to have another Hoosier on board. When I saw your IP, I new you had to be close by.

I don't remember the list of which you speak. Most of the "essentials" can be purchased at Walmart:

Dump hose
Fresh water hose (white)
Black tank chemical
Water pressure regulator (for city water hook ups)
RV bath tissue
Electrical adapters
Wheel chocks

I'm sure others can add to this list.
