What if it Snows?

We do the same. Big one for guests, little one for her and me.
I guess folks are funny about their grilling, but for me, kettle grill and Kingsford pretty much does the deal.

 

Got a raise and a bonus for sticking with my company for a little over a year. Feels good not being a constant job hopper.

 

Oh goodie..........

I think the battery operated HVAC system is called a epu right? That thing is the hotness. Made the truck super comfortable to sleep in, i’d almost ditch this volvo for a cascadia.

 

Its why we have a porch with storm windows on it. If we must barbecue in the dead of winter? We are out of the wind and barbecue warms the porch. Tho we like @otterinthewater idea.

 

Have a factory installed unit, made by Dometic in this International. It does good most of the time. When it starts hitting 117 degrees, it will struggle. I think that has more to do with the batteries. I need new ones.

 

Yes, they are generally called an EPU. Know a few that have the Tripac-E unit. 2 are in T680’s and one in a Cascadia. They work very well. The T680’s have an auto start, so if the batteries get to low, it will start the truck. Don’t know if the Cascadia has that.

This will mess with your eyes.
