I wonder if the issue might be that you would be putting the RV into storage a day before your paid storage actually begins? How about if the storage period were to be March 31 through September 30? Just a thought.

One of the moderators moved it to the proper location.

Yosemite National Park is a place that you could spend a lot of time in, especially if you like to hike. But you will need to have reservations to stay there so get them soon. It is 300 miles from Anaheim to Yosemite via the most direct route. If you then leave the park and travel west to the coast and follow it south back to Anaheim that will be about 600 miles return trip. It will not be possible to do what you have in mind in 6 days if you only travel 150 -180 miles per day. Google Map of the proposed route

Legally there probably is no reason that you couldn't sign early but you will still need to work with the person in the office. Keep in mind that a friendly approach asking for some help is much more likely to be successful.

I never owned a Heartland RV but have several friends who have and all were satisfied. Heartland RVs is an American manufacturer of recreational vehicles located in Elkhart, Indiana. Founded by former Damon Corp. CEO Brian Brady in 2003, it was purchased and became a subsidiary of Thor Industries in 2010. I also found this set of specs for your model and the following picture.

An absorption refrigerator will not work without proper ventilation and it can be dangerous to try. If you were to get one of the new, 12V compressor refrigerators it would work without the extra ventilation. If you do decide to cut a new vent, be very sure what is in the wall where you plan to cut as you might affect the structural integrity of the RV.

When do you plan to start your trip and how long will you be spending on the total trip?

While I've not done that, it shouldn't be very difficult to do. If you look under the RV there should be an iron pipe that carries the propan from the location of the propane bottles and regulator back to very near the current propane appliances. I would tee into that with more iron pipe to get next to the location of the new refrigerator. I'd just supply it with propane in the same way as the trailer manufacturer did with what is there now. You do need to use propane rated pipe dope and such.

If you have not traveled by RV in the US before I think that you will find most RV travelers to be easy to meet and make friends with. We can also help you with planning a route if you think that would be helpful. There are a lot of folks from Ontario that winter in the US south so you should be able to locate some, even if not through this site. If there is a local RV club, try contacting them.

If you look at the map online, you can see where each of the campgrounds are. There are now new directors in charge so some things may be different but most of the events and activities will be in the buildings numbered 2, 3, & 4 on that map. As you can easily see, the closest campground for full hookups is Pilot Butte with White Mountain next. Boar's Tusk is about a mile from the activity area and we didn't use it at all the first time so I don't know what the transportation situation will be but for me that would be a choice of last resort. We will not. We missed last year for the first time in 10 years. I was part of security for 7 years and team leader for 5 but age and health issues for Pam have brought all of that to an end. I sold our travel trailer last July as it had been 1 year since it was used. I sold my truck this past fall so we have no means to take part now. I have a difficult time accepting it but we are now past 80 and slowing down. I would probably still be doing it but Pam is not able. We lived in Cheyenne, WY for 18 years and have been to that area many times. EDIT: I might add that there was dry camping for those who wanted that in several areas close in as well. The triangular area just to the east of Pilot Point campground, and the small parking next to the dog park & across from Pilot point were both dry camping areas as was the green area to the east of the horse stalls. Not being on staff anymore, I do not know if the new directors will do that again.

No email address??

I think that you would be better off in the park that you don't have to leave, but make sure that is true as it may be the reason for requiring a tow vehicle. If all that they require is having a tow vehicle but you don't ever have to move, you could alway just find the cheapest half ton pickup and park it, then keep your Jeep to drive. The second park is going to get to be a real headache to move out and in twice a year and that will also get expensive.

I am taking this to a PM since it is just conversation.

What you are experiencing is a very normal thing with an EDPM roof. As they age they will chalk off the surface and while some of the aftermarket treatments help, nothing will totally prevent it. Assuming that the membrane of your roof is original as it likely is, the 19 years of use is playing a part and it may quite likely be nearing the end of it's life. There are numerous EDPM roof coatings available that can extend the useful life of the membrane. There are also more permanent roof products like RV Armor or Flex-Arnor and several others available. Your rood may have several more years left and there are cleaning products that you can do yourself to help. The first thing to do is to get on your roof and examine it. If it is starting to look like the picture it may be nearly time to replace it.

Still here but gave up the RV last spring. Good to see you back!

I agree. Get a 2500/250 as they are not that much more expensive and will tow much better.

It might help if you share more specifics of what you want. You mentioned an interest in other states but so far have only listed parks in AZ.

Lambert's Cafe is a US restaurant chain with locations in Foley, Alabama; Sikeston, Missouri; and Ozark, Missouri. It is known for throwing hot rolls to the customers.

It would be possible to modify things in order to replace the present over with a propane toaster oven but that would involve a major modification of both the RV and the oven. There have been no propane toaster ovens designed for RV use to my knowledge and I'd be surprised to see one introduced because the market for it would be so small. If you did find one you could expect the price to be pretty high. The stove top toasters are still available and you must have a really cheap one as we used ours for more than 30 years.

Have you considered getting a lot in one of the Escapee co-op parks? While many of the co-op parks have a wait list, The Ranch at Lakewood NM has 2 lots that are available right now. The last I knew, Lone Star Corral at Hondo TX had a fairly short wait time to get in. If you have not done so, you should check out the Escapee Co-op parks to see what might be of interest to you. It will cost you nothing to get information. I really think that those are probably among the least expensive and most secure long term places that you could choose.

We had a toaster like that back when we were tenting and through all of the various RVs over the years.

While I have never seen one in an RV, Amazon has some propane powered but I suspect that they are all of outdoor use.

Welcome to the forums. We will do our best to help you and let's start by getting you a copy of the Dometic Service Manual which you can download. If I understand the refrigerator is working find but has no indications at all. Is yours the manual or the automatic ignition? The model that you have is not sold in the USA so I doubt that any of us have experience with it but, in looking at the electrical diagrams of the service manual, it appears that plug X15 on the power circuit board supplies the display so that is where i'd start to check. Have you tried the operation in all modes? Starting on page 30 of the service manual there is a series of steps for diagnostics, so I'd try that to see if it will work with your situation.
