Hmmm ... I guess I need to appreciate a little more what Winnebago did in our small Class C.
There is a heat duct in the bathroom (and air conditioning duct also) that not only keeps it toasty warm, but also helps keep the plumbing around the shower and toilet from freezing in extreme cold. Of course this would not work if we camped in cold weather with hookups and tried to use only portable electric heaters or portable propane heaters to keep warm.
It takes the propane furnace and it's ducts to best hold off the effects of low temperatures.
I wonder if any motorhome has heating/air conditioning controls in it that would allow BOTH the propane furnace and the air conditioning fan - with heat strip - to be turned on at the same time for superb heat distribution in chilly weather?
