Anytime I move a coach cross country for someone and it is October through March, the first thing I ask is "Does the furnace work?" I do not ask about the engine, or the trans, or the tires. The furnace comes first followed by the engine driven heater.

We had freeze warnings here last night and I'm 350 miles south of Chippewa Falls. You and Colonel Ken got out of town just in time. Had the rally been one week later you would have wanted that furnace. I only had 120v - 20 amp service there so electric heat was not an option. When we were there I did turn on the furnace one night and supplemented it with electric heat. When the coach was warm enough, I turned off the furnace and ran an electric cube heater the rest of the night.
