Default Hello from Fresno



New owner in Fresno, Calif. I found a 1998 FD / full bed in Oregon for 23k and flew up to get it. So far, so good (minus a catalytic converter replacement). The generator has 3 hours on it, the refrigerator has probably never been used (but I fired up), original well batteries that needed replacing (which I find a positive) etc, etc. So far, the main theme is surprise - I read Tynan's book and other online postings about modifications. The first thing you do as an owner is modify all the old equipment, esp. the fridge. Yet I don't see the point unless, for instance, the frige drains the propane quickly, etc. Still trying to figure out why, when I walk into it in the morning, a fan is running in the back. Anyway, hello.

We have '05 FD Twin. No we have not modified much. Fridge does not drain propane much.



Would you have an access panel or vent from the fridge compartment, to the outside? When you use fridge on propane, does VERY warm air vent into the cabin?
