I am new to RVing; I just bought my first Travel Trailer. I plan to travel and I would like to know from other people what is the most important things they take on their trips and why. What is important to pack in your RV for your trip?

ANSWER: Greetings Loveis thanks for submitting your question on our Ask An RV Question Page.

First let me congratulate on your new Travel Trailer and welcome you as an official RVer. I am sure that we are going to get a lot of comments on your question. Because every RVer has their own opinion on what is essential to take with them when they go camping in an RV.

I will start it off with what my wife and I must take on every one of our RVing trips; Wine for her and Beer for me :-). Yup, there is nothing better than relaxing at your campsite watching the sunset and enjoying an adult beverage.

The first thing you will need is a basic checklist to get you started. Vacation-Lists.com has a great free printable RV Packing List you can use.
