Sounds like a deal, didn't occur to me. Did end up with one of these that fits nicely between the 5th hitch and the cab. It was cheaper if ordered directly from Class A ($109 shipped a couple of years ago).

New Fresh Water Fill Station, the plastic cover hinges wore out and the cover will not stay in place all the time, I am afraid it will fall off some day. New Sewer hose kit also.

Two cabinets from Ikea for clothes. Our closet space is nearly non-existant, but the area by the stairs is clear and perfect for some tall pine cabinets and shelf organizers so our clothes aren't stuck in a basket anymore. I honestly couldn't be happier and it keeps our cats from sleeping on our freshly washed clothes (which seems to be their favorite spot once a week)

Just received "AP Products Slim Shade" replacement door window. Had them on my previous units and should be a standard equipment.

new for the RV
We own a toyhauler and have been camping this past week here in Ohio. It didn't do bad but 2 times ran out of LP, both at 3 am and in the cold. So on another forum some people I know has this kit and said it is great for keeping an eye on their LP tanks. One of my 30 lbs will last about 5 days, considering temp at 67 deg, cooking in the oven 3 times and also using LP on the hot water tank when wife was showering.
I know it would not work for a MH but for us I hope it will keep me from doing the 3 am drill with he LP tanks again.
It should be coming in the mail within the next few days, and since we are still camping I can try it out this year.
We are doing a Pigeon Forge trip for Thanksgiving week and going to try out the new LP kit.

Repaired the back grille after the tiny tack welds broke on the right hinge. I used aluminum angle and pop rivets and it is better than original. I suggest checking the welds if you have this configuration, looked like they forgot to do full beads after tacking them. All the other welds are full length. Amazing how heavy this thing is so you will need help. [ATTACH]

Do you have a changeover regulator on your tanks. If so you should not run out of propane.

I was just going to post that that was what I did this morning - installed the new Slim Shade. I hated the frosted glass that came on the door.
BTW I got mine from Amazon warehouse deals for 25% off. There was another available at that price when I got mine on Friday.

I'd love to see photos! Did you secure them to the walls or floor?

It doesn’t work on the built in tank, but that has an accurate gauge. I bought the Tank Check for the portable tank I use with the Extend-a-Stay. It is Bluetooth enabled and will let you decide what level to get a low tank warning. Sure beats those 3 am tank changes!
You'll love it!

No we don't have the change over regulator, took it off. Reason is when we do run out I still have a tank to use. We have had friends and us on our old RV, that had the auto changeover regulator, only to run out of LP in both tanks and not being able to change to the other tank.
In the summer not very bad, but at this time of year it can get cold. You know other people get upset when you are out of LP when it is 35 deg outside. So I figured it is easier sometimes to get up and change over at 3 am in the cold, then to run completely out of LP
