Just bought our first new trailer!

My wife and I just bought out first ever new trailer. We bought a Coachmen Catalina 323bhdsck legacy edition.

We have done a lot of camping in our first trailer, which is a beast. It is a 1986 prowler lynx 31zb if I recall correctly.

Anyways, I am just excited to go camping, or glamping as some would say, but I am ok with that too. AC for the first time out there will be awesome. This summer we got stuck trying to sleep in our old beast when it was 36 degrees celsius. It was miserable.

As one who also lives and camps here in Ontario I must be missing something. :h You just bought a new trailer that measures a considerable 35' 10", are excited to go "glamping" which usually means camping with all resources, at a minimum 120 vac shore power, yet you're thinking of investing in solar? :@ Presumably you have your reasons, especially since you're already experienced RVrs, but I must be missing something here ... where in Ontario are you intending to dry camp with such a large trailer and so often that you're willing to invest in solar? This model you've chosen and the amenities it offers would certainly qualify as an excellent candidate for "glamping" but that's going to require services ... and if you have services then your battery will be full charged anyway. What's the advantage to solar? :h

And before anyone jumps all over me for these questions - I'm just asking. :W
