Hi everyone,
Sorry about the newbie questions, but I'm heading up to Canada in a few weeks for 4 nights, mostly boondocking. No electricity anywhere.... I'm bringing my young son (14 months) and I have a few questions. I don't have my instruction manual with me (I left it in the RV which is 1.5 hours away) so please bear with me with the questions that are probably in these manuals. My fuel gauges are broken and aren't slated to be fixed until AFTER our boondocking experience, so any help is greatly appreciated.
Off the top of your head do you know the following:
1) How many gallons are in the Genny fuel tank.
2) How many gallons are in my second fuel tank.
3) How long will the Generator run approximately with a load on a full tank (AC running etc).
Does anyone know if its something like 30 minutes per gallon or something like that?
3.5) Is gas/diesel cheaper in the US or Canada?
4) Can I use the fuel pump off the aux fuel tank and the generator fuel tank? Or just the aux fuel tank?
5) How wide is the RV with the slides out all the way (for the campground we are going to on the 4th of July).
6) Any tips on boondocking? It's not completely boondocking since there are some facilities there. Bathrooms and showers, so I plan on utillizing that over the RV bathroom as much as possible.
We are hitting a few campgrounds on the way there and back again so we hopefully won't have too much trouble with our black and grey tanks.
Last question (that I can think of right now).
7) What the heck is a sewer donut? All the campgrounds say we need it. Does it come with this kit or do I have to buy it separately?

Thanks again!
