Hello all,
I'm fairly new to the forum. I picked up my new R-190 on November 9th from Jeff Couch's RV Nation.
I'm happy with it so far. I've had a few minor issues but feel confident I will get them resolved soon.

Welcome from right down the road....we're in Mt. Pleasant close to Concord.  We've been trying to hit all the NC Parks we can plus we love OBX.  Have fun in your new set-up!

Thanks Stephen, that makes perfect sense. It’s 4am and the little $30 Walmart space heater has done its job so far. I will wait till we get home and burn off the furnace. Other than that we’ve had a great time. I can’t wait to start breakfast. I’ll be doing that outside on the Blackstone of course..

First time using the furnace as well as the convection microwave, you will need to take down your smoke detector and open a window just a little as well as the vent. Run the vent fan on low. This will not need to be done after the initial manufacturing oils are burned off them. However, it would be good to have the vent open just a crack and possibly a window also to reduce the condensation that comes from living and breathing inside the 'Pod. Cooking also adds moisture from the stove. The furnace does not add moisture.

After the furnace has been run a while, the smoke detector can go back up. However, you may find like I did that cooking tends to set it off as well.

Great looking rig AL1010, and it looks like you have that hitch set up nicely based on how level everything is, with just a slight squat on the rear axle. See you on the OBX!

Different things can be done to hold things in the pass-through storage. Plastic tubs work great for confining things. You could add some of the waffle-weave rubber shelf liner to the bottom to give it more friction to reduce sliding. With experience, you will figure out what works for you.
