Refrigerator

Any news on how the refrigerator has been working in the new 21 without the fan (in hot weather).

I had no problem on the way home from Chilliwack keeping it lit and at 40 degrees set on #4 and automatic. It switches between propane and 120v if hooked up. I have the standard sized unit.

Hey Jim

How about doing a photo tour of your camper so we can get a good view of the new model?

Will do in next couple of days. Here is a good picture of the awning and awning light taken at the rally last week in Iowa.

Love the awning...! Where is the light switch for the light strip or do they come on automatically when the awning is extended?

No wonder you bring along two good guard dogs: every one would want a trailer like yours...!

Going to start a new thread called Prairie Schooner and post some pictures. The awning light is remote controlled as is the awning, there are 2 separate remotes, actually 3 now if you get the MaxxFan upgrade.

I'm not sure about that guard dog protection, At Scott County my dog went over to harsh their mellow and within two minutes all three of them were laying back down including my dog. Nobody even barked. If in fact it's a decoy to bring bad people in real close, they are very good at it.

I'd be interested in how the medicine cabinet's been working. Staying close during drives. Ease of using it while in there. Stuff shifting around too much while driving. Stuff like that.

Love the photo. I was wondering how bright the awning light is at night. We do not like overly bright, glaring lights at night but prefer a more subtle glow. Looking forward to future photos.

Fridge temp: how warm/hot were the outside temps during your trip? And my size question posted on your other thread is answered here.

Hi there, we have a 2017 17b trailer with the medicine cabinet. I love the cabinet and being able to store toiletries but it does not seem to be staying shut while driving. Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas on how to secure the door while travelling?

Did you try adjusting the friction catch, perhaps with needle nose pliers? Mine was to hard to open and that is what I did.
