20# portable propane tank
Can I store 20# white standard propane tank for portable BBQ in the cargo bins in a class A? I do not have a connection on the on-board propane tank for BBQ.

I didn't want to have a high-pressure propane hose lying the the grass between the MH and the BBQ on the picnic table. Also, I bought a 10-pound "squatty" propane tank that has the same base ring as the 20-pounder, as I didn't want to be lugging the heavier one around.
I also bought a "gas cylinder base stabilizer" at Camping World. I positioned it close to the forward wall of the stow-bin next to the rig's propane cylinder bay and bolted it to the floor. That bin has a 4" removable plug in the floor which I left open when the tank was stored there. I was planning to add bungee cords to hold the tank in place, but the base stabilizer was such a good snap fit on the tank, it wasn't necessary.
The set-up worked fine for the four years we had the MH. The "squatty" stayed with us when we sold the MH and I use it on the Weber Q100 grill on the patio at home. The base ring went with the MH when it was sold.
