To buy an Rpod (or other camper): I am home today, quite bored, as I can do nothing as I wait for the heating/cooling man to show up and repair the motor on my heat pump - which decided to expire in the middle of the night. The forcasted high for today is 99F, with the heat index approaching something called "magma". As I am outside this morning, fiddling about to see if I can get it to work, what do I spy in my driveway??? A LIFEBOAT! My camper has an air conditioner that WORKS! And you thought they were just for recreation!

I hit 100* yesterday. But the northern states are really getting hot! Great idea you had for cooling down! Terry ------------- RP-175 W/Lift Kit 2011 Ford F-150 4X4 Saint Augustine, FL: The first permanent European settlement in the USA: 1565 |

I can't tell you how many times we've done that with our various campers, for things such as heat, air, hot water and the frig.
