Little Buddy Heater
Almost bought one today, but than I read it might shut off at 7000 thousand feet. Experience with this?

Yes, I had 2 Little Buddy heaters. Got the first, and it didn't work on our first trip where we tried to use it. Exchanged it, and the new one also would not work. We camped at 8,000 and 9,000 feet when they would not work.
Found some very fine print on the box that even the salesperson claimed to not know about. It says it does not work at high altitude. 7,000 feet is the highest we could get it to work at. Got rid of it, and got a catalytic heater. It worked at high elevations with no problem.
Got our current trailer, and let the catalytic heater go with the old popup.
I would not recommend a Buddy heater for use in most of Colorado, or where you plan to be above 7,000 feet regularly.
