Some friends of ours recently purchased a trailer and they were describing how this particular model (forgot the name) was well insulated for cold weather use. Got me to thinking about the new-to-us Class A we expect to purchase soon.
If we purchase this Class A during the summer with the expectation of traveling to warmer climates come winter, would we need to winterize it when it got cold along towards winter then de-winterize (?) before heading south in January? One never knows what the weather will be of course but there's a good chance that where we live the temps will be well below freezing at some points before the end of the year.
Perhaps it varies from model to model? It's probably only December where low temps could be an issue but would that mean that we'd have to do the winterizing for just that one month where it wouldn't be in use?
Finally, it sure seems that most Class were born to fulfill their destiny of transporting their owners out of cold climates in the winter, but are there any motor homes that have features that make them well suited for cold, winter operation?
