I'd now look to the Forest River C's for enclosed and heated tanks if we wanted a newer model.
Our 24 foot Itasca has electrically heated tanks. What advantage over this do you see to enclosed tanks being heated by the propane furnace??
Granted, it takes pretty good batteries backed up by a generator recharging system (under grey skies) to power the on-off cycling heating pads day and night if drycamping in 24/7 freezing weather .... but from what I read many/most cold weather campers are on hookups anyway in cold weather, so the converter is powering the tank heating pads.
