I like the idea of a donor pop-up, but you have to be careful or you will be buying a junk pile. The old school fridges are propane powered and they aren't very efficient on electricity and you would be better off with one of the new 12V compressor models. A water heater would be nice, but an old one might just rust through shortly. The stove would probably be ok, test the furnace before you buy it. They are loud and suck up a lot of power.

About the fridge idea, I don’t see a issue with using propane for my fridge. Most lengthy time I expect to be out is 4 days maybe.
But I am not opposed to a full on fridge with a freezer, cost is an issue as mcDave says but I don’t like sacrificing quality either. I am mostly concerned with the how to. Plumbing and wiring and so on, I can frame stuff in, welding is easy enough, Electrical wiring is lost on me.

We worked with that kind for years, the are sensitive to being level and take a while to cool down, but otherwise they work fine. You can also check the RV junk yards for deals.

Well, those mountains look familiar! Where in UT did you end up building? I am jealous, we have been wanting to break ground for over a year now. Sure wish we had concrete poured. That's exciting, you should be in for the holidays!

We have kids in Orem and Herriman, so yeah, periodically we get up that way. How is the house coming along?

Nice! I see you made the garage door big enough to pull the trailer inside. What is that, 12' high 14' wide?

The small door is 10 wide, 8 tall. Mommas side,
My side is 18 wide and 12 tall, I can push the header up if I ever need to gain another two feet but I don’t see that being the case. The smaller door will get a loft above it in the short future
