Hi, I am George in BC

Hi Y'All,

Have been lurking here for awhile, looked like just what I was looking for. A great information exchange site for small RVs.

I am currently upgrading my Trillium to keep me comfortable during a 7 month road work contract in Yoho and Glacier national parks up here in BC.

Adding:
Woodwork to support the following and add a less plastic feel.

Furnace: Suburban NT 16SEQ - the Q means it's quiet.
Fridge: Nova Kool R3000 DC W, I'll be using my shoe horn for this one.
AC: Coleman Mach 8, 9200 BTU 47201B876 - The B means its Quiet, The older A version was very noisy. Roof reinforcing required
Generator: Westinghouse iGen2500
Batteries: 2 6v golf cart.
Charger: NOCO G7200 12/24V 7.2-Amp for now. (G26000 12V/24V 26A when paycheques start!)
And.......

Just bought my new tow car, a Toyota FJ Cruiser, 5000 lb towing = Unstoppable.

Previous was a Golf TDI, less than 1000 lb limit...

More on this project later.

Pictures when I remember to take them...

I always get involved in the task at hand and neglect to document my progress until too late.
This is going to be a memorable project on a tight time line.
Don't want to omit the details.

I traveled to NC for work over a bunch of years. On my last trip I took a road trip to Skydive South Carolina, was going to make a jump but it was windy and I was too far from a friendly Canadian hospital...
Anyhow, I will try to feed progress reports in here as it goes.

Welcome, George; Triliums are cute little trailers, the jalousy windows handy, and your upgrades sound super. Will happily see photos of your woodworking as you take them...so many FGRV'ers do amazingly great woodwork!
Really upgrades the interiors!
