Very Nice Nrthwds! Enjoy your trip down the coast

Yes, you loose 4" of the aisle. Went from 31 to 27. Don't remember anything about the width being different. The 4 cuft frig has a flat door and the 3 cuft has a curved door.

Thanks to all! It will be a long exciting drive to go pick up (5 days).

which way are you traveling?

nrthwds · 09-05-2016, 09:42 AM

From Chilliwack down to Washington, Oregon and then see what the weather is in the mountains, snow? Yellowstone and Tetons if no snow. Maybe further south and then east. Will decide as I go depending on the weather. Figure I will take a about a month to get back home.
Suggestions are welcome! Will stay mostly in BLM, forest, national or county parks.

which way out, thru Canada or in the states?

nrthwds · 09-05-2016, 11:47 AM

Through the states. I pick up trailer 9/21 and will stick around Chilliwack for a few days and then head to Washington and Oregon. Heading for warmer weather in late Sept to early Oct. Should be able to see some fall colors and wildlife.

Thanks for the invite. That would be great fun however I will probably be in Yellowstone or the Tetons by then. I will keep it in mind if I am still around.

I thought the sewer connection for all RVs is in a universal location on the driver's side, not passenger side. All dump sites I have ever been to have the dump located on the driver side as you pull into it. You would have to enter the dump site thru the exit to be able to use the passenger side for the dump & of course would have to wait until no one else is in line to use the dump site as they would be entering the site at the entrance.

Someone please explain this! I am considering a 21'; is the dump valve on the passenger side of that model too??

I believe this is a mistake, it should say driver side. So Valerie, nothing has changes.

That is the driver's side, in front of the first wheel well, the light has been moved down low on that side to illuminate the area, the standard position now for the driver side light, the sewer connection in front of the first wheel, notice no mud flap, notice the furnace is over the first wheel also, all on the driver side.

Very nicely coming together Dave and Kim!!
Your Jeep Grand Cherokee: a diesel or gas? Would love to know how it pulls for you.

dkirk · 09-15-2016, 02:37 PM

Jeep GC is a V6 gas rated at 6200# towing. We are also very interested in how it pulls. It has pulled our 15' Escape flawlessly so far.

We will take a week after the trailer pickup to explore Washington State and area. I should have a better idea how it tows by then.

PS We will try towing without weight distribution and sway bars first, if it does not feel right we can add them later.

Next year. Baja!
