    Do the new C Class Gens run on propane?

    Looking at a 2024 Entrada 2950OK, the salesman said the generator runs on propane not the gas tank, is this true? I can't find anything on the East to West web site, I don't want the coach if the generator runs off of the propane tank, I can't imagine why anyone would. The iverter Gen said...

    Time to Replace CO/Propane Detector?

    Fill Microlite propane tanks?

    We are relatively new to trailering and are about to embark on our first multiweek trip.

It appears that in order to fill them we'll need to tow the trailer to...

    Rv carbon monoxide/propane alarm replacement

    Our 2019 Rockwood MiniLite 25BDS needs a co2 detector replaced. The model that came installed is a SAF-T-ALERT model 25-742. Can I replace it with a 25-741 model? What’s the difference other than $75 vs $130? Are other manufactured brands acceptable to use?
