I didn't order the front slider because I didn't have one in the truck but it was delivered with one anyway. It has come in handy for allowing window cleaning access. It can also be used for ventilation if the bugs aren't too bad.
I haven't used the awning, rear steps or water heater / shower very often but I think they'll get a good workout on next years Baja trip.
I like the refrigerator but it wasn't able to keep up with the Moab heat during the day.

Did you get a chance to get down to Bluff for a float trip to Mexican Hat? Well worth a detour and its not too far from Moab. We a were all over the area last summer. It had been 10 years since we'd been in Moab. Wow!!! Urban sprawl has taken over the town I remembered with just one paved road.

my unit has the "magic fan" ....the small fan out on the vent duct on the fridge. IT MAKES A BIG DIFFERENCE!!!! wow.
on really hot days the cooling seems to diminish....flip on the fan and BOOM! its all frosty again!

Does it look like that fan can be retroed? Ben told me the fridge is supposed to be 40 degrees lower than ambient. So in 100+ it aint tooooo cool. Does the fan make a huge dif? Can you take a pic of it?
Thanks.

40 below ambient? odd....i had the inside of the unit below 40...i keep a thermometer in it. in fact i have been testing it to see how it behaves as my gas runs out. i had thought that it was over with due to reduced gas pressure...but no way....it was over a 100....4th and 5th was hot....i flipped the fan on a got a good surprise.
the tank says empty but stove hot water and fridge are still good.

I went throught Bluff and Mexican Hat on the way home but didn't stop. Couldn't wait to get back to the cool Santa Barbara mornings. I plan to go back and spend more time in the area but it will be in the spring or fall. The area is beautiful and there are great Jeep trails everywhere you look.
Jeff,
I have the refrigerator vent fan and it helped a little but not enough. The first couple of days I was in a park with shore power and tried the frig on both propane and 110v. The propane seemed to work better but not enough for an icy cerveza. I could freeze water bottles in the freezer over night when it cooled off a little but during the day the frig wouldn't stay cool enough to keep the food from spoiling. Maybe the box just isn't insulated well enough.
