Yes, and  BEWARE rip off prices!!! The back door on my camper bit the dust
(literally fell off on the hwy).  I had already fixed it once, generally
falling apart.  I found, when I dismantled the thing, that the frame was
little itty bitty 1" wood frame, STAPED at the corners, and not very well.
I bolted the whole thing back together, keeping in mind that it consisted of
the flimsy wood frame, styrafoam inside, and plastic inside and outside,
plus all the cool magnification windows..........probably about $40 in
materials, max.  Guess what the replacement will cost?  OVER $800!  Heck, I
could buy a refrigerator or a HORSE for that!  Maybe it is time for the

take the comparable cost of the camper components and

 I'd like to have a generator as well, but would like it
