Pretty much any thermostat compatible with a two wire furnace will work with the RV furnace. In such an application, the thermostat is just a fancy switch, connecting the two wires together for heat. This means any digital thermostat with battery power for its controls. There are many available.
BFL13 describes how to connect it up quite well. The R and W codes are somewhat standard on thermostats, along with a few other letters, all of which seem to have been assigned more or less at random.
If you need the thermostat to also control an RV air conditioner, things get a little more complicated...or, in some cases, a lot more complicated. It's still often possible to make the swap.
