Added an ATS and a 2 gallon pressure tank. Today I will insulate under the bed area with rigid foam and luan to dress it up. Will use the unit next weekend for the 1st real trip. 2012 Attitude L27CBG.

I did a couple of things today. I added a switch inside the Toy Hauler that will allow me to turn on all the outside marking lights when not connected to the truck. I thought If I was parked in a pretty dark place it would be nice to light the TH up. I got a lighted switch. Ran power from the switch to the fuse panel, grounded the switch and finally ran the load wire to the hot side of the marker light.

I also added some more Led lighting the inside of the TH. I am about 50/50 now. I do a lot of dry camping so I think this will come in handy. And it's nice that Camping World has them on sale at about 50% off. They are a double 36 diode led with a double throw switch. So you can have one or both sides on.

1L243...I see you have a metal car port cover for your rig. I'm considering this for mine...what size car port you have and what did they charge you for it?
The lights look nice. That's actually a really neat idea.

It was originally 18'x 26' with 8' legs. It has a center height of 11'. When I bought the longer TH I had them come out and add another 10'. So now it is 18' x 36'. I was going to have them add 12 foot legs but it was not cost effective. They wanted to take the entire thing down and build it again. The story here is to get the biggest stucture you can fit or afford. You may get a bigger rig in the future and you will be ready for it. The initial cost was $1800 and then $600 for the added 10'.
