Agree with these comments fully. We full time in all kinds of weather and about 30% of the time boondocking. We have a residential fridge, 600 amp hours of lithium batteries, 900 watts solar, an 8K diesel generator and three sources of heat with propane furnace heating our tanks and living space. We’ve used it all and enjoy a 10 gallon three way hot water heater along with a massive propane tank. We also have 100 gallons of fresh water, 110 gallons of gray and 70 black storage and dual pane windows. The downside is maintenance on a complex and older diesel pusher. We have a 98 Foretravel.

I would like for you to review a Rockwood/Flagstaff Minilte trailer!

I'm not clear on how a gas absorption refrigerator gets ruined in cold weather. I lived in New Jersey for two winters in my RV and never had an issue. I then moved to the mountains of southern Arizona and actually had my pipes freeze once in the winter, but for years I never had a problem with the refrigerator. Yes, it was gas absorption and I used propane most of the time. (I lucked out on the pipes freezing, they were not really under pressure at the time and only the faucet head in the kitchen popped out. Nothing else was damaged and I never had a leak.)

Can’t wait for the comparing of models

The microwave didn't work first outing; wasn't even plugged in, the outlet fell out of the wall, and the outlet read open neutral on my diagnostic equipment. The p trap under the kitchen sink came loose and dumped water all over under the sink. Bunch of other small, dumb issues as well (random screws rattling loose, trim pieces loose, floor squeaks at night, couch squeaks, bugs keep getting inside from somewhere, the solar controller wiring wasn't even hooked up, etc.). Tried to get warranty work, Camping World said they'd need to hold onto it for months. We full time, so I am just fixing stuff myself.

And yes, this will have to be a do it yourself project as I don't know of any RV made set up that way. Anything that runs on propane means you have to buy it from time to time. That could be a problem if living in it year round and budget is tight.

Unfortunately no. Propane mode and electric mode are alternative heat sources to boil the ammonia in the cooling unit. Because the problem is with the ammonia in the cooling unit gelling, it does not matter what heat sources you use. Norcold makes a cold weather kit which is a heater that allows for operating down to 0deg Farenheit, and Dometic makes a replacement vent door with no vents for use under 45 deg Farenheit. It just blocks air flow and should make the fridge operable down to -22 deg Farenheit. That is what they advertise, I don't have enough data to say how well those systems work as I just get called to fix the ones where people did nothing 🤣

Word of caution....if you don't have a DC to DC charger between the house and chassis batteries, if the house batteries get low they will draw excessive current from the engine alternator and can damage the solinoid or the alternator. For example, I recently had to replace a blown 125amp fuse on a motorhome with a large lithium battery bank because they were running the AC off inverter power while traveling. When the battery bank got low it drew more than 125 amps from the alternator and blew the fuse. I've replaced many solinoids that were damaged by high current on motorhomes with standard batteries because the solinoid is usually only rated for 80 continuous duty. Because of the alternator limitations, you don't want to put a more heavy duty solinoid in. Easiest thing is to only discharge batteries 50%. If you want to cycle them deeper, or have lithium, I reccomend a DC to DC charger because it limits the charge output to an amperage level that is safe for all components. On your Tiffen, I don't know what you battery set up is, or your travel habits, so I don't know if you would run into problems. But I would encourage you to keep an eye on the charge level of the batteries while traveling and run the generator if needed to keep up the charge.
