Yup, we're checking things out this coming Thursday through the following day, Friday, at one of the popular campgrounds offering full hookup and pull-through.  I'll let you know what we find.  I'm still experiencing TT GFCI tripping, hooked to 15-amp home current.  Hopefully, hooking to 30-amp service will eliminate the tripping problem……if not, have wiring problem via Neutral and Ground wiring in TT.CryJohn

Well, gang, Donna and I had a wonderful time.  Our 14RK sure is cozy.  Plugged into 30-amp service, the GFCI lonly tripped twice.  So, next stop is Matt @ KZ, KZ Engineering, my MN licensed Electrician and dealer for resolution. Frown

Sorry I misled you.

Correction:  Matt @ KZ is not a mechanic, he is one of three of our Customer Service Reps. at KZ factory in Indiana.

Donna enjoyed her kitchen.  We used the microwave (plugged into one of the GFI outlets) and air cond. at the same time, different circuits, though.  We made coffee plugged into a different GFI outlet.

Donna and I watched a DVD and tuned in a local digital channel off the powered antenna, too.

We both slept really good and thought the cushions were pretty comfortable to sleep on.  Donna aqnd I especially enjoyed having warm sleeping bags, when the temperature dropped into the low 50's, early Friday morning.  Remember, you can expect anything to occur here in Minnesota.  The northern reaches of our state experienced snow about two or three weeks ago.

Our little dog behaved pretty well…..next trip out, we'll take both the dog and cat.
