    Kovea X-On Portable Stove? Good, bad, other?

    I have a GasOne 15K BTU and it rocks. Super simple and heats well. IIRC it was $25 on Amazon. I'm sure the trump tariffs have changed that price to cost us American's more dollars. Kovea - no mention on my brief google about BTU output.

    What component do I need to charge power station from a 12v source?

    Charge from what? I use a MPPT to charge from solar panels and a 120VAC power supply to charge from the grid. I do not charge from 12VDC, but if I did I would use a 10A (min) constant current / voltage, boost/buck.

    Quality enclosed trailer, does it exist?

    steel is real. I had a Haulmark Transport a few years back, was probably 15 years old at the time. Well made & well modified. I bought this one and improved & resold a few years later: https://forum.expeditionportal.com/threads/jeffs-cargo-conversion.73403/

    Gen 1 & 3.0L SOHC Gen 2 Timing Belt service etc are straight forward. It took me around 8 hours working at a leisurely pace.

    Maverick or Ridgeline? 🤔 I’m stuck…

    Honda Ridgeline is assembled in Alabama - Tariffs will apply on imported parts used for assembly. Ford Maverick is assembled in Mexico - Tariffs might apply to the whole thing. I have not shopped for either, but I'm betting the Ridgeline is more $ to start.

    Radiator-type heater from propane hot water heater?

    sounds like it would work. I've not heard to many issues with the chinese diesel (warm air) heaters though. They would be considerably more cost effective than engineering up the hot water solution. Amazon reviews on the KemiMoto are not great.
