RV furnace
Powerful
Mobile
Keeps tanks warm
More consistent temps in rig
Fuel is portable
Runs off grid and 12 volt source can be charged with solar or generator
No fumes like catalytic
Cheaper than elec I would believe
Best place for an electric heater is while staying at an rv park on a daily or weekly rate so as to use their electric. Monthly rates dont usually include electric so it would probably be cheaper to run propane.
So....depends on how you use it and at what temp. Best to have both systems
