Looks nice, where would one obtain the FRP you used on the walls?

Home Depot, just past Longhorns there in Cumming.

I got mine at the Home Depot over in Holly Springs.

Install of 400 watt inverter and 2 6 volt batteries. Now the wife and I can use our c pap and bi apps. Added a cb radio with weather alert.
Has anyone changed out their steps. That 11 inch step into the fun finder 210 is getting hard for us 70 year olds.

Dusty, yes, I have installed Glowsteps -- they are not cheap, but they are much easier on the knees!! Let us know if you need more info.

Glow steps. I'm going to Google them. I don't want the ones that are solid that flip into the doorway. I store it at a storage yard. To close to flip out. I may need to pick your brain. First I need to learn more about them.

Dusty, these things are great for crowded RV storage areas -- here's a link to the manufacturer's page, discussing that exact issue -- scroll down to the third paragraph:

https://www.torklift.com/rv/glowstep-revolution

And here is a link to my discussion of the installation process:

https://www.rv.net/forum/index.cfm/f...d/30290564.cfm


Note that my discussion is mostly about DIY installation -- if you have a professional do it, they will not need much guidance.

Almost done with my "Ultimate Boondocking Camper" project.
Starting with a 2011 XTRA XT-200 Toy Hauler I just bought.

Added:
-Husky 5000lb electric hitch jack.
-Windy Nation 300 Watt MPPT solar kit, feeding (2) Renogy 200Ah AGM batteries, feeding a Renogy 2000 Watt inverter.
-Replaced all lights with low amp LEDs.
-Axle flip to gain about 4" of clearance.
-Additional 51 gal fresh water tank tied into the OEM 36 gal.

The batteries recharge fully every day and the 85 gal of water should easily last my wife and I a couple weeks with nightly Navy showers.

Yet to come; new mattress and upgraded faucets and shower head.
