Over the past year, we’ve been ordering 12-volt refrigerators in our new RVs whenever possible—and for good reason. While traditional gas/electric fridges and even residential-style fridges have their place, the 12V option is proving to be a game-changer for everyday RVers and boondockers alike. Here’s why we’re big fans of 12V refrigerators, especially the Everchill models we’ve been installing.

Tire issues are one of the most common—and dangerous—problems RVers face on the road. That’s why at Roughrider RVs, we highly recommend adding a TST Tire Pressure Monitoring System to your RV setup. Whether you're pulling a fifth wheel, travel trailer, or toy hauler, TST TPMS gives you real-time peace of mind by monitoring your tire pressure and temperature while you drive.
