Just got word from Jeff that they are going to start our Ocelot build next week! We ended up going with the 72" model, 2 roof vents with one powered, awning , awning lite,cold weather pack,110 volt system,full length tracks,furnace,12volt outlet w/USB, and the aux.battery system. We also had them install an AT can holder,drawer above the furnace/propane cabinet,small window on driver side and a sink drain beside the furnace cabinet. We would like to thank all the WTW members who answered questions either through the forum or PM's. Also THANKS to Jeff at ATC for answering all my questions during multiple phone calls.     THANKS again. Glen.

Glen, sounds nice! Congrats, you’re going to love it!

I’d recommend adding the water fill door as well. You might never use it, but if you add a water tank, it will make things easier. Solar?

Congrats and enjoy it when you get it. They always take time to answer questions . I have emailed them a few times . They always are willing to help and go way above for you. If I was to order a new camper
It would be with them . Especially when they want to make what you want and need . Great owners that take the time which is lost in most companies

Never thought of a water fill door. Thanks!  Where would you suggest putting it? As far as solar goes, I have been talking to a local Guy that will hook me up with what I need when I get home. ATC is  going to rough it in with #10 wire .

Typically, tanks are across the front, so I’d recommend the door go far forward on the drivers side. That would minimize hose routing. Talk to Marty about it.

Try to get them to use a heavier gauge wire. Ten gauge is ok, but bigger would be better. Not a huge issue unless you have a lot of wattage on top.

That's great Glen.I thought of you when Ski posted his ATC visit photos.

There was a Ocelot there and I thought it might be yours.

The time will go quickly. Water door would be good thing to have now even if you don't use it.
