  1. We come from the truck camper world. We have ordered an Elite II and have our tour and meeting to finalize options on 10/21. Having spent hours on the forum and Facebook, your list is spot on. We won't get our trailer until late June '22. I already raised the question of compressor fridges. We have two, one in the camper and another in the truck. They are awesome and with lithium batteries power will never be an issue. Acrylic with windows that are hinged on the top and can be locked into several position, would keep rain water out and allow windows to be cracked. Until we spend time in the trailer and experience everything, I wouldn't want comment on your other suggestions. You did miss one😎. The porch lights would be better with an Amber lens. The light by our camper door is Amber and no issues with bugs.
  2. We recently ordered a Legacy II. We will be traveling to Tennessee in a couple weeks to finalize options. Coming from the truck camping side, we have been used to compressor fridges 12-vol/110). There seemed to be more problems with the 3-way than the compressor fridges. Everyone has their preferences. We will have Lithium batteries and the 340W solar. Some people will drive with the propane on. Others say it is dangerous. I know that driving with 12-volt will drain acid and AGM batteries pretty quickly, but not sure about lithium. I would love input on how all of you run the fridge when driving. Since Oliver only sells the 3-way, we will need to get used to this. We also have a National Luna 50L top loading fridge that we have in our truck. I usually plug the top loader onto shore power or into our generator during the day and then Goal Zero 400 Lithium power pack at night. I'm thinking I can plug it into the trailer in camp and will experiment with that. Thanks for your advice and feedback.
