Chateau Le Cargo. "Done..with pics to prove it"

It is a Dickenson Marine propane heater. Unfortunately, it does not have a thermostat.

What is the towing vehicle pictured at the Home Depot? That looks like a beast and a half... just the vehicle I'd want to replace my ageing van.

Cheers, Dewi

Dewi: It's a Nissian Frontier....not really a beast but they have grown over the years. It only has a V6 but it pulls the trailer no sweat on the flats and good enough for me over the mountain passes.

I will let you know when I get a chance to weigh it without all our junk in it.

BC Dave: We added the brass reducer valve from Dickenson as well. We always ran the flame as low as we could and still it got super warm. I have 3" of foam board waiting to go in the floor... just need a warm day to install it! After that I'd sleep in any temperature without a second thought.

Weight; Just for refrence refore renos my CT was rated at 1200 lbs (didnt take it to the weight scales before renos) after renos it weighed in at 1600 lbs unloaded; loaded probably 2000 lbs (without water toys or tools).

lol ... yes I find it too warm even at dead low; but its easy to crack a window or 2. Floor insulation is worth the trouble.

In my album; heres a photo of my front poarch camping in the CT Ja 09 12 got to -9C ...in 2 ft of snow on my little 1/2 ac mt. retreat

happy trails! BC Dave
