Woulda, coulda, shoulda-what would you have done differently?

Hi all,
Wondering if you could 'do it again', what would be things you would have added to your TH (if it was custom made, or bought a different one, etc.). Anything you added or 'needed' to have on your TH that you look back on and ask yourself why?!
Just trying to get some insight on features that are really necessary, and from experience (we have none and to spend this much $$ for something like this, we really have to lean on the advice of y'all), what is really needed.
Thanks!

When we factory ordered our Sabre DW wanted the 40" TV upgrade. I was fine with the standard 32" but she won. It was a good thing .

Better insulation, better axles, better brakes, residentail style interior. Just of the top of my head, what are you looking for?

We're weekend warriors, some of these we have now & some are what I'd review in a TH for long term camping:

Two A/C's
More slide outs the better for more SF
Plenty of windows on both sides of the camper
Dual pane windows
King bed
2nd bathroom
Auto level (6 point)
Residential size frig
Outdoor TV entertainment bay
Heavy duty axles
Arctic insulation package
Air ride/bag pinbox
Large(est) grey tank you can get
Large residential bathroom (shower)

To name a few...Good Luck camper shopping!
