We don't use an LP oven, so had them build in drawers. Don't need a window behind the TV (on a lift), so had them make them not cut one out. Don't use the bathroom window, but forgot to have them eliminate it.

Everything but the antenna and outdoor shower, gets used constantly!

I actually do use outdoor showers. Usually, the only issue I have with outdoor showers is the amount of debris that's inside of the old, rusty pipes. Well, when you travel, you can simply unscrew the showers at these public sites and clean out the water filters and put it back on. With the amount of discount filters out there, you can probably stock up on different models and have them in your RV when you travel. Try it!

I'd also recommend shower mats, but that's another post on another day.

We use everything in our RV but the jackknife bed. It's only the two of us plus the three cats so no need for another bed.

Just for kicks, I pulled out the sofa bed. Yeesh. I'd rather sleep on the sofa while it's folded. Funny because I just spent a couple hours this afternoon picking a new mattress for the bedroom. My RV's about to have the best mattress I've ever owned in my life.

The recliner and passenger seat are on the chopping block. I want to put a desk and entertainment center in that space.

Haven't used the oven in 3 trailers. It makes a great bread box.

In the 6 RVs I've owned I have yet to use the spare tire. When I order the next unit I will check that option again and hope my luck continues.

Love my oven. Get tired of BBQ'd and fried and I refuse to ruin meat in a microwave.

Hate the hide-a-bed...a never use.

Only 2 things never used ... spare tire and booth dinette as a bed.

TV antenna, that's a good one. I have no use for that at all and have never used it. In fact just found out it's frozen in the down position. I also have never used the TV shelf in the bedroom. I have a simple 25 foot trailer so there's not much left for me to not use. Oh yeah, have never used the oven.

fold out couch, not now, we have a bunkhouse for the chillins
Awning, all the time,
Exhaust fan, very necessary in the shower

TV, digital, analog, air cable, I gave up on that thing
