Don't forget a laptop with everything herk puts out here for information on it. A generator to run the laptop just in case where you need the tools and information isn't around AC. LOL I'm just here to help too.

 When you go camping just park beside herk7769. He will have any tool you will need. Sorry herk I just could not help myself. A good small tool kit and a volt meter with several different types of repair tape and spare fuses and bulbs. As stated you could have every tool in your house with you and the one you don't have is the one you will need.

A 50 page packing list dictates that is the reason they camp next to you...LOL
a small rv park could have nothing and you would have enough to supply them what they needed...

Don't know if it's the same as haywire because all I ever saw hay tied with is twine,but I use steel tying wire which you can get at building supply stores.

Try Home Depot, I used some rebar tie wire just yesterday.
Got to make sure the 7/8" clevises on my truck bumper don't magically walk off... Its thinner than hay wire. I wonder if you could find hay wire in the chainlink fence section? Maybe as tension wire??

A guy at work camps with his brother in law and he carried a spare axle assembly for his 5er. And, the guy from work had to borrow it to get home once.

Haha, wow.
Sorry, but that sounds like the perfect excuse to not come to work on Monday. "Sorry boss, I'm stranded in the middle of nowhere with my trailer."
