What one person’s must haves is another person’s “Hell NO!” LOL
There is no right or wrong what you buy because your lifestyle is slightly different than others. No right or wrong. Just sometimes regrets.
if you are going to dry camp, then Generator Prep and Generator may be a must but also having a third 30lb propane tank in the bed of your truck would be a consideration for backup.
Yes to Dual Pane Windows to add to the quiet factor.
Yes to disc brakes for better stopping.
Yes to Slide Toppers. If one lives in high windy areas maybe one would consider it an annoyance due to sound of flapping toppers.
Some love Norcold dual Fridges, some call them Nevercold.
Yes on some form of surge protector (aftermarket) and battery monitor
You plan on Generator Prep, Generator, Solar Panels, washer/dryer, dishwasher, dual pane Windows, then you may want 8k axles & brakes only bc the CCC on the 310GK is a little light. Plan on traveling with 90 gallons of fresh water when you roll out? Then that alone is about 750 lbs.
I ordered mine with the Generator Prep but not the Generator. I already have a Honda EU3000is from my tent camping days. Maybe one day I will find a good used Onan to install.
some things one orders upfront because once built, it’s built. Everything else is part of the POW, Project On Wheells Andrew can be done over time.
Good luck with what you choose. Just go on a journey, make an adventure, and have fun. All you need is the truck, keys, and trailer for that I. Regards to RVing.

Opinions are like certain parts of the human anatomy... everybody has one. That said, in my opinion, one thing that is not optional is an adequate tow vehicle. When loaded - and depending on options - the 310GK will put 3,000 - 3,400 lbs. on the pin. The truck needs to have adequate payload for that plus occupants, fuel, hitch, "stuff" (as George Carlin would say), etc.

So true.
I find it interesting when I hear so many people willing to make the compromise to stay in a Tow Vehicle that is not rated for what they tow for whatever reason. So often people acknowledge they are at the limits, few hundred pounds over BUT it’s not a problem. It’s not because THE Problem has yet to present itself.

Maybe you should take a few minutes to calm down a little and read this post.
