Excellent ideas here. Common sense will be your most valuable tool and keeping up with the posts here from the sharper fellows. My $0.02: 1.) If your MH has air brakes, obviously you have an compressor unless your engine is dead. Make sure you or the dealer installs an air outlet quick-connection. 2.) Good quality cordless drills also have available good quality work lights, I have a Dewalt fluorescent. A good quality light can be invaluable. 3.) I am not a big fan of the large tool boxes with drawers even though I have one, my favourite method mentioned above are the canvass (Klein) or synthetic fabric tool bags (Craftsman) of various sizes, I have three of those. Klein also has the smaller canvas pouches I use for the smaller stuff. The fishing tackle boxes are a good idea if you have the space. 4.) Various size zip ties. Good luck, Mark

Wayne, Hey, I didn't know that, thanks for the head's up! I'm going to go by their office today and ask them about my options. (The license bureau is about like the IRS, each office has a different answer!) Take care, Mark

Hello everyone, I must say logically get the most license you can for safety's sake. So what if it is a Class A CDL? You will learn a lot and possibly save yourself/others from a serious accident. Take a CDL driving course if you have to. I have the Class A but of course not the Haz mat or tanker endorsement. You all must realize that operating your motorhome takes due diligence and a very professional attitude. What is more professional than a Class A CDL? You will feel better about yourself if you get the CDL, I know I do. One question, do you know what each of your axles weigh? Good info for the back roads. Keep the rubber side down, Mark
