Regarding winterizing...
DH is going to insulate the storage compartment doors. Last year we also bought foam pipe insulation and covered the heat tape and waterhose, wrapped hosebib with the foam & electrical tape. In the really cold weather always leave a water tap running. Also thinking about a small electric heater in storage compartment. When we were in Alberta noticed some of the campers had wrapped the hose bib with fiberglas insulation & plastic sheeting and then placed a plastic pail over that. We did NOT leave out the sewer line, only connected it when we needed to dump, didn't want to risk a frozen sewer line.
