I’ve pulled away with Xchocks in place on a travel trailer being pulled only by an EcoDiesel. Agree with the fact they’re easy to pull through. But the do take a little of the motion away for us. Noticeably so, actually.
‘Must Have’ List for Best Experience

Though I don’t have one yet, you reminded me about the ladder.
These Dometic chairs with the foot rest are worth every single penny. Subjective opinion but really comfy for us.

Pex tool & a few fittings, plugs, i carry 2 short pieces of pex, to get me out a jam. Longer screws, gorilla wood glue, volt meter, at least 2 of each fuse, including the glass 7.5a for the water heater
For those who carry an air compressor please: I've carried a Makita DMP181ZX 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless High-Pressure Inflator for some time, but until recently, have only used for 'topping off' or to inflate airbags (when I had my F150). Until recently I had (& used) an FR Cedar Creek 40CCK for which I needed to pump up the 4 tires to 80# (they all were low after sitting for a while under a pole barn) - getting ready to turn in for a 2026 32RLS. I went thru several batteries to do so.
So, my ? is what air compressor do ppl use? In my experience, they've been very heavy & bulky (but didn't have one for either of my (soon to be prior) RVs. I'm fine to get one, but I'd rather learn what works well from others TY in advance; Appreciate the lists of 'stuff' & would like to get a little more down into a little more detail.

The VIAIR 450P is quiter than many are. AND it's 100% duty cycle, unlike many.

Carry GreenLeaf I think thats the name, fits under back seat in truck plugged into the 110V for charging while driving. ALways ready to go. Provides plenty of air just not the fastest in the world but mainly use it to top off tires. Comes with battery and charger.
My go to is a DeWalt 20 volt inflator It can air my 80 psi tires. I have lots of Dewalt stuff and lots of Dewalt batteries.
I also carry A 110 Volt Harbor Freight air compressor I seldom use it but it's there if I really need a compressor and a pinch. I could run it off my 5'ers inverter Or my when 3600 dual generator if I really needed to.
My DeWalt inflater gets the job done 99% of the time.

80 must be just for your truck? My 2023 340RL tires are at 110 psi.
Yes, You are correct 80 psi is for my truck.It will also top off RV tires I generally keep them at 95 psi or so. I concluded the full 110 psi might be a little too much so I settled on 95 psi
That is what I carry along too.

Open a restaurantThat pretty much my approach as well. But I won't claim all the stuff I carry is must have. A lot of it is overkill or "just in case".
Nevertheless I have the room and payload capacity to carry a bunch of stuff. Including lots of tools, meters and duct tape.
But do I really need 22" Blackstone, Q1200 grill, electric griddle, deep fryer,crock pot and air fryer. Of course not.
Overkill maybe and understatement. Maybe someone needs to start a thread on what not to bring,Brining everything as I do might not be the best approach either
I live in the Ridgid ecosystem so bought their 18 volt inflator and carry it in my truck. I have two handfuls of batteries for all of the various tools and a charging station on the wall in the basement. A 4Ah is more than sufficient for all but a 0 to 80 tire inflate. The inflator comes with a long cord to plug in to the 12v receptacle in the truck if the battery dies. It has an auto setting that lets you set, start and go on to other tasks while it pumps away.
I routinely raise my truck tires 10-15 psi in prep for towing and top off my trailer tires as well.
It ranks well in head to head YT reviews. I’m on my second having used it extensively over the past 5 or 6 years. Others, who have taken my recommendation, are equally impressed.

When's dinner? I'm kind of a hobby chef and that set up sounds awesome!
This is not tongue in cheek, maybe we should start a camp recipe section.
