In helping a friend pool together an order of items to buy for his -10, I figured that it might be helpful to have a centralized area where people could reference a few common RV-10 'to buy' items. Of course this is not an exhaustive list. There are plenty of other sources and products out there. This is a sample of a few items to think about and where to find them. Leave a comment if you have another good source for one of these items, or any other item that is specific to the -10 that would be handy to have here.
