The TM (or any RV/tent) is really just a place to sleep. Of course you have indoor plumbing, cooking and seating. If you have little to no experience it will take awhile to decide what you need and how you will use your TM. Will you use it as a base camp just for cooking and sleeping, or will you spend most of your time in it or some where in between. Will you pack all your food and "stuff" before you depart or get most of it after you arrive at your camp site? I couldn't agree more that you can make do with things you have at home until you figure out your personal style ... and needs. Some great advice here to try to use what you have and make notes about what you think you need that you don't have, what would be nice to have but you don't really need and what did you bring that you never used?
Almost all used RV buyers expect an awning and air conditoner. Beyond that I would think it is all a matter of preference. No doubt you have been reading the forums and can decide if you need a hanging cabinet or a swing away hitch. Alot of your decisions can be made based on your life style. You'll probably camp much as you live .... spartan or material girl, as the shoe fits.
Part of the fun of camping is the adventure and the unknown. Enjoy your journey!
