 It is so funny to read some of the comments on heat and hot water.
One moment it is too hot and need the gen on for counless hours to use A/C then the next it is too cold and needing the A/H on for endless water and heat!!!!
What ever happened to to the old answer for cold like putting on a sweater or?
We have many nights in freezing and lower temps while travelling and have not ever had a problem keeping our toes warm. We also do not sit in the coach all day hugging the vents but get out in the "fresh air" and enjoy the scenery, even if it does have 6" snow on it.
"whatever makes you comfy" hey Dave?

I suppose one does get used to creature comforts, and as one has more, one gets used to more. We once took our tent trailer out in January here in Idaho. The morning low was 19 degrees and it snowed. Now that I'm used to a fifth-wheel, I don't think I'd ever do that again, but it sure is fun to see people's reactions when I tell them. :)

A sign I recently saw, "Camping ain't what it used to be. Thank goodness!" :))

"Roughing it" is when you have to start the generator. I was pleased to go tent camping and pop-up trailer camping with my young family. I'm pleased when my son does the same with his young family. I'm now pleased to travel in my apartment with engines and wheels. ^.^d
