An empty page fix-it to-do list I keep on Google Drive so I can keep track of the current things that need repair.
Our coach has everything, but not all of them work.

Hot tub. Shock absorbers. Better holding tank sensors. More outside storage. Spare tire underneath. TV amplifier switch that can be reached without stepladder or contortions. Better antenna. Double pane windows. Bullet-proof tires.
We have a travel trailer so our list is maybe a bit different....

Better insulation
TPMS from the factory
CCC is fine but rear axle can be easily over-loaded so better weight balancing
LED lights
Smaller black tank but a bigger gray tank
Better quality slide toppers (better UV resistance and better in the wind)

Sure hope the manufacturers are following this thread. If they go with one post, I vote for this one.

With all of the technology and electronics now built into an RV, I wish they would spend a few dollars and install a GOOD surg Protector. NOT just the factory installed. ALso a water softner built in to protect the water system, sinks and showers

Zippered or velcroed wood trim on the front slide where the lock is installed.

I wish mine came with a rebate check for the $4000 in after sales price add-on items.

Some of the things the mfg does is really silly. Our Dolphin is very well insulated in the walls and ceiling with ridgid foam and then they install an uninsulted front cap. Hello! Ours comes with dual pane window which are quiet and help with heat and cold transfer, but then they install an entry door with a single pane. Our heater is 13,000 BTU but the ducting is uninsulted plastic flex hose so almost no heat comes out of the vents. Why do they think a little piece of velcro is going to hold the front curtain open when you're driving? Just silly things that make me wonder if they thinkabout what they're doing.

One other thing. The engine is 4" below the floor but I have a 6" high dog house. Why? I guess I wish mine came with some common sense.

Sales literature that includes square feet. With three and four slides the difference from one model to the next is substantial.
