After a long winter of mods we finally got to take the 31G out! Very happy with how everything well except for one weird deal. Both Friday night and Saturday night the furnace stopped working in the middle of the night. I'm thinking it's actually the thermostat but not sure. Once I turned the system off and back to heat it worked fine. Bummer to wake up to a 50 degree trailer at 3 am.

Past that, it was a perfect weekend of riding and camping. We had Wilderness Rider Buffalo Ranch in mind when we decided to buy the 31G and equip it for boondocking. Absolutely our favorite place to ride. 3000 acres of spectacular vistas. Their camping spots are not the easiest to get to but worth it if you like being secluded.



















 
What a great trip. Thanks for sharing the wonderful pictures.

Next time the heater quits check the voltage on the batteries....

Hmmm... The furnace fired right back up when I turned it off at the thermostat and back to heat and ran the remainder of both nights and into the mornings. I have replaced the 12v deep cycle with a 200ah hybrid gel. I checked it with my Klein DVM on Sunday morning and still had 12.13. Pretty low but I don't think it should be a low voltage situation but it's possible I suppose. Not sure what voltage the furnace would cut off. I still haven't installed the battery monitor that I've had laying in my shop for weeks. :confused:
