Default Rodents in the furnace !!!!

About a month ago I tried to troubleshoot my furnace that didn't light. Well I brokedown and took it to a rv repair place here in Rogers Arkansas.

Surprise to the tune of a 500.00 repair bill

A rodent was found in the heat exchanger area incenerated.

The little guy had caches of rice and a toilet paper nest build in one of the ducts. The rv guys returned the evidence in a plastic bag.

The previous owners never knew he was there. I bought this trailer a couple of months ago.

So far I have spent 400.00 to replace all four cables and 500.00 to fix furnace in addition to the price of the trailer.

We spent a week in Amarillo Texas Thanksgiving and all appliances worked fine.

A cold straight line wind came up the last day with hurricane force winds that moved the trailer backwards while we were in it !!!

We quickly got up at 4AM and boogied it out of there back to Arkansas

But all in all we love the trailer. It tows great even through the high winds that were fishtailing 18 wheelers on I40.
