RE: How to wire a 2002 Jeep Wrangler for towing?
I ran 4 wire trailer wire from the front grill through the frame to the rear of the vehicle. Split the wiring to each rear tailight and installed diodes inside the fender well behind the tailights. No problems over the last 10 years.
And no fuses to pull.
I wired a seperate 4 wire receptacle at the MH to eliminate having an extra adapter.

RE: Vent for Compartment Door
Remember that a vent is only as good as the replacement air you provide. With all these ideas of exhaust fans being bantered about, nobody has mentioned anything about an air source for the fan.
Ideally the air source would be across from the exhaust to allow the fan to draw air through the entire compartment.
Just some thoughts to consider.

RE: Towing a car hauler vs. four down
I tow a Jeep four down and as you have mentioned it is really simple. I too have thought about an enclosed trailer but what holds me back is the weight, ability to connect it on my own and where to store it when you get to your destination.
Weight. Is your coach capable of towing trailer and jeep/car weight. Mine will not.
Ability to connect. I can easily maneuver the jeep around to get it hooked up but backing up to a heavy trailer would be a different story. I see getting in and out of the MH several times to hit it right.
Parking at your destination. Most parks that I have been to will charge a fee to park a trailer if they have the space.
Just some thoughts. Good Luck.

RE: Removing Exterior Decals and Stripes
When I removed my decals I tried pretty much everything. Heat Gun, chemicals, razor, eraser wheels, etc.
Because all of the decals were not in the same state of cracking, some methods worked better than others.
What I found that worked the best was a product made by 3M. It consisted of a set(5)of rubberized disks attached with a mandrel and placed in a drill. It took some time but it removed the decals and adhesive in one pass. Each pass was about 1/2" wide so you can only imagine how long it took. The 3M disks also lasted the longest out of all methods used.

I repainted the stripes with automotive paint in a new color scheme.
Good Luck

RE: Roadtrip gas grill help
I put a Tee with a Brass valve on my MH propane tank before the regulator. On the Tee after the Shut off valve is a quick connect that I use to connect a 20' hose that can be used to run the Roadtrip Grill or lantern or anything else I need.
