Pretty much what has been posted, I would add a Jump Pack,
I also carry 1" - 1 1/2" box end comb wrenches & sockets. A shovel, Farm Jack and mooring line instead of tow strap.

Gamble Hausfeld, Wal-Mart, about $49. Works perfect but slow, use it on my 22.5 tires all the time.

I also carry a spare serpentine belt and a 24" break-over bar to install it. I have needed it only one time but I then drove from east Kansas through Oklahoma to Amarillo before I found a replacement for it, so they are sort of "rare". But I at least had one when I needed it!

By the way: DW was NOT happy about me stopping at all of those "Cat" houses looking for a belt when I had "JUST" put on a new one, but she doesn't have a MAN'S mind.

We carry some variations of what has already been mentioned...sometimes more if I plan to do a project while on the road (installed a satellite dish on one of our trips).

One thing I did not see mentioned (unless I missed it) is stuff for the roof in case of leaks. I keep two tubes of DICOR (one self-leveling and one non-leveling) just in case I need to patch a crack/leak on the roof. I also have some plastic tarp and waterproof tape to use if one of the vent covers or the skylight were get get cracked from a falling branch, hail, etc. And, I carry a tube of white bath/kitchen caulk...just in case.

I also have a spare fuel pump, air filter and spark plug for the generator. And, I carry an oil extractor pump, and some oil, for no-mess generator oil changes every 50 hours (we often run it to power the AC in hot months while driving). I could use the same for the motorhome engine oil while travelling if I needed to (and it's what I use to change oil in the motorhome and other vehicles at home).

Good ideas gang. I'm with you on most but need a reminder at times. You have done that for me and possibly others.
On the spare serpentine belt, YES, I will replace the one on it now and keep the old one for a spare. I've been doing that for years with my pickups etc.
Thank you kind people, and, Happy Thanksgiving to you all.

I carry a complete service manual set for my chassis.Pointless leaving it home in the shop. Good reading if you ever have nothing to do. Most everything else has been mentioned.

All of the above. My father always said "when going RVing always take your tools your going to need them" boy was he right.
