Just picked up my 2017 301 Blast. They caught a few minor issues on the PDI(broken cupboard latch and broken tailight screw).
While waiting for the weather to improve I switched out the single Grp26 battery to a pair of Grp31 from my old trailer. Also added a power disconnect switch as the trailer would drain the single battery in a few days with nothing on.
Seems like a pretty high draw to me for what I assume would be just the CO/Smoke/Propane alarm. Fridge, lights and furnace were definitely off.
Once our old trailer sells we'll be looking at a solar panel/inverter system as we camp exclusively off grid and hate the sound of a genset.
Does anyone know where the tanks are located in relation to the axles? I have not installed the W/D hitch yet. Towed home great empty but then I put our Ranger in the back and went for a short drive and it was all over the place. I'm guessing all that weight behind the axle screwed up the hitch weight. I'm hoping that the extra batteries and filling the pass thru storage will help with that. However I wonder where that 90gal fresh tank is at....
