    MIssion Overland Trailer Owners page

    Much sturdier than the ducting. I noticed the front of the trailer does not get much heat. Perhaps running the ducting along the wall towards the front to get some heat up there.

    Freaking COVID vs adventures grrrrr!!

    Easily treated at home or on the road. My wife and I travel with a kit with the all the meds we would need in the unlikely chance of infection. If you have one of the few Doctors who will treat covid he/she could prescribe the meds so upon infection you could start treatment.
