RE: Leveling the Refrigerator
Why have I never had a problem with the level of a fridge?
I have had motorhomes (Bs and Cs) for thirty years. Unless it is a pretty good incline, I just don't worry about it. A few degrees from level and I am fine. I have never had a problem with a fridge not working properly because of a slightly off level situation. When we boondock (which is about 95% of the time) I just try to get it reasonably level.
The advice above that if half the bubble is in the circle is right on target as far as I am concerned. The advice above that if half the bubble is in the circle is right on target as far as I am concerned. It just seems to me that we sometimes tend to scare newbies in particular with "what ifs" that it could take away from their confidence and enjoyment.
I think this quite interesting since I tend to find it pretty difficult to find a spot that'll get me within a half a bubble.... Well that's mostly around the hilly forested Eastern side of the country anyways.
For me leveling is a PITA and I strive for the bubble to be ~ 10%+ in the circle.

RE: Portable Air Compressor
I picked this B&D 125psi, 2gal oil-less from Target for $35 clearance (actually 3, and gave 2 away as gifts).
CLICKY
It's been great for my tires and blowing out my water lines (also use anti-freeze).
Not sure if they still sell them though.

RE: Bike rack for B with rear spare tire
Oh yeah, forgot to mention,
depending how serious the biking will be, I also really like folders for the B. I can get two 16" wheeled folders, or one 20" wheeled folder under my rear seat/bed.
This is with my two vintage Dahons:

For reasons of weather, security, parking footprint size, etc..., unless I'm heading to a biking destination which I'll take the Thule/real bikes, I almost always have a folder with me.

RE: Bike rack for B with rear spare tire
Thule Revolver, expensive, but worth it.
4 bike rack, although 4 is tight and 3 fits perfectly. No hitch extension necessary (well, for the RT at least). Adds just a few inches to your length when folded. Swings away, with or w/o bikes, so you can access the rear doors. Locks for bikes to rack, and rack to vehicle. Very quick to load/unload if you have standard bike frames, needs an attachment/adaptor for unusual frame. Very solid mounting, bikes to rack, rack to vehicle. First bike should be mounted front wheel to right side of vehicle.
My RT with rack folded.
