I think the exhaust tube is metal but I never took it apart to know for sure. Some people on here have removed the furnace and could probably answer that.
Probably the wrong thread to discuss this venting stuff.

interesting pics..it looks as if the new type extra insulation option is visible in this pic...and the reflectex is required behind the fridge.
The ceiling has no insulation, different color, or perhaps not installed yet?
the cabinet attachment points are easier to see in this pic with the insulation providing contrast.
thanks for sharing the pics!

It never stops being a treat to see the trailers coming , even for " never up-sizing 15ers" .

Thanks everyone. With 4 big mutts, I probably should leave it open! I'm hoping they'll take the permanent bed and leave me a small table to sit at! I will definitely keep posting - where else can I find people with similar rabid enthusiasm??

Wow, one of the few times the Urban Dictionary did not come back with a sick description'
green and purple
This is a very rare color combination that is not always seen by anyone anywhere, reflecting a strong friendship of two people that are very close to each other and are not of the same gender. The two people are very different which makes them attract each other in every way possible. The color Green is the guy and the beautiful and cute Purple is the lady. Used only when they are very close that they will give anything to be with each other at anytime.

blhvet it looks like your pics are only a few days behind ours, so your trailer will be ready well before the April pick up date you see to have against your account? We pick ours up on Jan 31 and already anxious and ready to get going, south somewhere.

They moved up my build date by over 2 months - I had less than a week to finalize my build sheet! I thought I changed it on my profile, but maybe not. Yours wasn't the 19' with red graphics that I got pictures of, was it?? New completion date is Feb 7.

Ours is the 17B in post 709 on page 71 of this thread. We were very lucky and originally had a date next November but when all the dates were being moved up, some forum members indicated that because of existing committed travel plans, they didn't want their new dates. So we contacted ETI right away and said we would take any date they couldn't find a taker for and they told us we had to finalize our build sheet in less than a week which we happily did, so our pick up date is now Jan 31.
