Thanks Jim.
Was the plywood try to raise the floor of the cabinet up to get it at the level of the bottom lip, allowing for ease of sliding the gen in and out? Or something else?
I have a 3/4" piece of plywood on the bottom of the compartment to clear the bottom lip. Then I have a tray of 1/4" with some edges so I can slide the generator part way out of the compartment and turn it so I can reach the pull cord. My camper is a Northstar Igloo. Northstar actually redesigned this camper so that for the new version the generator compartment would be on the other side and the pull cord would be facing out.
Thanks Jim. That sound like a good way to go. Pretty nice to see a manufacturer respond to a small nuance like and make a change.I'd say that's a mark of a good company. Small stuff like that can go a long way. Like going from our Mazda 5 to an Audi SQ5. 4 wheels and goes from A to B. But gosh dam, when you sit in it and everything just feels good and "feels" right, boy it makes A to B much more enjoyable. And that will also be the psychology I'll be using on my Mrs. when it comes to which version of the new F350 DRW we choose! :p :B
