and everyone knows that ice weighs more that liquid water.

When it is real cold, fill your fresh water tank disconnect the hose and put it inside and close your black and gray water tanks. I would also drain any water out of the sewer hose so it doesn't freeze into one big icicle.HitNtheroad said:Thanks for the info. I bought a 50' heated water hose so hopefully I will be good in that department. I was more concerned with driving down the road with water in the tank but that has been addressed. I appreciate this thread and all of the knowledgeable info posted. Thanks again!

I would run the furnace to give you enough heat if it is riley cold. The furnace should blow some heat to the wet area to prevent it from freezing. I also leave the hot water heater on propane for the same reason + I like to have hot water to wash my hands after a pit stop.
With your rig 10mpg might be doable but be happy if it is 8-9.
