Water pressure regulators don't work if they freeze. Even after they thaw. I had 2 adjustable regulators and they both stopped working after freezing. Advice: take them off for the night and reconnect the water in the morning after it warms above freezing.

Zero gravity chairs work well for us - relaxing in our outdoor space! We do have a couple "bag chairs", one being a "love seat"/double, which is great for campfires, etc. Regarding tools, I do carry 1 LARGE one, an electric impact driver. Need that to get tire lugs off, since we do carry a spare tire, based on remote places we like to travel. And yes, no "glass"/ceramic plates or mugs, with 1 exception.... 2 small glass pyrex dishes for use in the microwave.

After RV’ing since ‘93 with basic outside folding chairs I discovered zero gravity chairs! I bought two on Amazon Black Friday sale, hubby quickly claimed they were too bulky. Soooo since I WANTED one we settled on one Zero Gravity chair and two easy folding chairs, but guess who is ALWAYS taking MY chair?😂 So I share🤷♀️❤️❤️❤️ Fully agree on most all your tips, except I hate drinking out of plastic so we still have a few ceramic mugs, and I like Corelle dishes (though we sometimes use paper plates). I have a bin where I can STAND the plates on end with a paper plate in between and all the other items bowls etc are in one bin. We also took out one of the arm chairs from our rig because we don’t use them both! And the fold out bed, ,, don’t use it either so we took the frame out and hubby built a frame for the couch cushions so I have great storage under there! We have always used the Camco filter and after one time with a water flood we have a pressure regulator like your’s. See? 👍Old dogs can learn new tricks😂

We also use a Berkey for our drinking water so no plastic here. But I will not give up my china, crystal, ceramic or glass items. And because I use felt sheets in some places and the drying grass rack (think baby bottle drying) we have not had an issue in 4 years of rving. I've certainly never had to pack our dishes away for travel. There is nothing like having a china mug for your morning cup of tea :)

A lot of YT channels add a small click like & subscribe animation somewhere in their videos at the bottom of the screen. I only mention it because I’ve heard that helps the algorithm push your videos. Also they leave a min or so at the end of the video with channel info/music to give time for the clicks.

Frankly the only thing the banana slicer is useful for is the thousands of hysterically funny reviews on Amazon. But the one unitasker I adamantly insist on is . . . a corkscrew! Don't leave home without it! I fully agree on the water filters and hoses. People go nuts worrying about drinking water. Even the worst water in the US is far and away better than 90% of the world. How are we the same generation that grew up drinking from a public fountain or garden hose? And cheap hoses . . ugh. I had a couple Wal-Mart hoses I used here at the house for filling the fresh tank. Coiling those things was like trying to coil up an angry, epileptic cobra. However, we've always stuck with non-adjustable pressure regulators. I've seen too many adjustable ones fail. 45 PSI is 45 PSI. I might buy a new one ever 3-4 years but they are inexpensive and no moving parts. And funny you removed your zero gravity chairs. For 13 years we camped with plain old bag chairs. We still have them for easy of carry, etc. But 2 years ago I added a zero gravity chair. I'm not sure how I ever got along without it and the naps I've taken have made it some of the best camping money I've ever spent. If push came to shove I'd remove our generator to make room for it if I had to! And i've never figured out why people feel the need to carry a flock of plastic flamingoes everywhere along with a fake palm tree, gazebo, etc. I'd add something to the list as well. Like you, I know we are in the minority on this, but I have never seen the need or purpose for a giant piece of outdoor carpeting. I can't even imagine packing that up after a rainy trip or where you'd carry it. The dirt saved from entering the interior of the RV would wind up somewhere in the RV when you pack it up.
