We have never had any issues with staying warm on the road until last year. Our furnace quit just at the Southern Iowa border on our way to Dauthan Alb. It was 17 degrees out that day for a high temp. Normal would have been in the upper 40's. About another 200 mile later the coach heater started to leak. By passed the hoses. Went to start the generator. As I had test run it 2 days before. Now that I really needed it. It would NOT start. And yes. It started two days later when I didn't need it. So we had no heat all the way there. We froze all the way there. That was why I was in a bad mood when we got there. Plus. It was cold there. I forgot about the furnace issue last week. The space heater will due at the convention. RIGHT. Well it did fine sort of. Now we're at the Twin City's. Furnace still not working. Our daughter has a 15 amp service to the out side plugs. The generator works. But the homes around her might not be happy. Normal high is 69. Normal low 50. Today hig
h 42. Tonight 27. And ONE space heater. Can't run two with only 15 amps. I didn't think I'd be in this situation ether. But I AM. And it's my OWN FAULT. Linda can't get to the bed rooms in the house with the wheel chair. So, the space heater is on. It's down to 45 in hear and dropping. It's going to be a vary long, cold night. My advice. Keep the propane.Cold Bob Dunahugh
