Yes, that’s our hatch & basement! ???? We really like it. Now that we’ve used it for a while we do wish the hatch was just a bit wider & taller. It would make the area more accessible for storage items. We are thinking about adding a removable divider in the basement. If we need/want to put longer items in the basement we could easily remove the divider.

The is a full timing Airstream couple that tows a 30 footer with a van. They have been out West extensively. You can look them up and reach out to them for experiences. #lessjunkmorejourney is their blog.

Here's another tip for the Reflectix insulation, when you cut it to size, cut the first piece to fit behind the window latch on the fixed side of the window. This way it can either sit behind the slide window, allowing the window to open over it or it can also be pulled inside more to complete the seal. Then cut the piece for the sliding side a couple inches longer so the Reflectix can become a slider itself. Cut it long enough to cover the lock. It works great and this way the Reflectix can be opened also without having to take it out to let the sunshine in :) I was brainstorming this morning and wow! It fits perfectly behind the shade and when cut to size to fit behind the shade and inside the rail, the shade holds it in place and allows the Reflectix to become a slider on its own :) The window shade still slides up and down perfectly over the top of the Reflectix, making the whole cold weather package even better :) Reed

Thanks for the reminder: we are so thankful that our daughter survived a brain aneurysm symptom free. Only 1 in 20 do. We are grateful of where we live in this land of rugged beauty, plenty of creature comforts surrounding us and family. Also we know the open road goes both ways. We can get out and see the rest of our glorious nation, but when the time comes, we know we can go home...

I went over to the storage yard this morning and took a couple of pictures of the installed vent cover. Hopefully this gives a better idea of what the finished product looks like. Bill
