RV Living in Winter: How I Stay Warm in My RV When It's FREEZING Outside

I'm a Full Time RVer living in a 1993 Class C RV - even in the winter! There is zero insulation and it's drafty. Here is how I winterize the inside of my RV to stay warm when it's freezing outside, what I use for heat, how I prevent my pipes from freezing and how I flush my toilet when the water is frozen!

Re: Winter Travel in Your Vehicle
Good tips and nice video. BUT, if it were me, I would have had my furnace fixed or I would have driven further south, since she lives in the RV year 'round.

Re: Winter Travel in Your Vehicle
Thanks for this info. I have a pretty good GOOD bag, but it helps to have a refresher course on what's needed.
We will be traveling every day for radiation appointments an hour away for the next six weeks. Weather may hamper this trip.
I want to be prepared for everything.
