Fulltimers - What do you bring?

Ok, I have to ask all you fulltimers out there....

What length of sewer hose do you carry on board?

What length of electric cord do you carry on board?

After our first experience with the national rally, and a couple of wildlife refuges we worked at and wanted a better view, we carry 30' of sewer hose. After being a couple of places where druggies were stealing shore cables to sell for the copper, we carry a spare 25' extension cord and an adapter so it can be used as a shore cord (had to make the dog bone adapter myself since I couldn't find anyone who made one). As has been mentioned before, the connectors to make the dog bone are very pricey, but now we have a total spare. Only used the extension cord as an extension cord once and once again it was camping at a wildlife refuge off of the actual site.

We carry a 15', a 20', and a 30' sewer hose and we have used them all in various combinations with the appropriate adapters- I bit the bullet and had an electrician buddy of mine make up a 35' cable of very flexible [expensive] cord to replace the 50 amp anaconda cord that came with the unit and a 35' extension cord- We have on occasion used both- JMHO- Don

We carry 3-10' of sewer hose and the standard 25' cable with dogbones to size down if needed.

We carry not only the mentioned above items but we also carry a lot of pieces of 2x8 and a few blocks of 4x4 in different lengths to accommodate the forever NOT level camping spots.

Furrion 25' cord and 25' extension cord made from old montana power cord that was done in by park shore power issue (prior to purchase of progressive pt50). Sewer hoses change as they bite the dust, but currently a 10 and 15'...both valterra viper. Water hoses...three 25', two better drinking water safe with heavy brass fittings from lowes and one camping world water hose with cheap, thin molded fittings. If I run into someone needing a drinking water hose, that unused c.w. hose will be gone. John
