Heat from engine block
So we finally got underway after having to stop at camping world again since the 45 point $250 inspection failed to detect that our fridge woulnt run on lp. Noticing that the engine block separating driver and passenger creates quite a bit of warmth. Any suggestions?
Good info. I have never had a rig with a doghouse before so maybe this is just how she rolls. I put a rug down on the floor and it was okay. Just wondering what it's going to be like when we hit OK and NM with all that extra heat being generated. Fridge got fixed, but still required a 3rd visit to get it done. Not sure what was included in the 45 point inspection we paid for. Apparently it wasn't the generator or the hot water heater or the refrigerator. But, we have driven our first 350 miles in Bertha and she did fine.
