Carbon monoxide poisoning is an odorless silent killer.
You don't have to smell exhaust or wrap your lips around an exhaust pipe to die. :R
I am very surprised how many RV people do not know this.
Sleeping in a 'parked' big box which is what an RV is.
Which IS why you should open a window/vent so the carbon monoxide can NOT build up within the inside. Seeing as the exhaust pipe is right outside up against the side of RV's. Any slight breeze sends the exhaust right under the RV. You are not driving a car at 50 miles an hour where the exhaust is blown away from the vehicle.
Sit in a parked car running and roll the windows up......can't tell me you have not heard of how many people die this way either by chance or by choice because it IS the quickest way to commit suicide.
And if you believe that no one has ever died in an RV from carbon monoxide poisoning you must have your head in the sand.
