  1. The other thing to think about is that our Moho are 25000-40000 lbs and only operating on four brakes the same as your car at 4-6000 lbs. Braking dynamics are not equal cars to Moho so defensive driving is a requirement for our units this includes the use use of engine brakes  mechanical fitness and speed control. Just my thoughts and experience with large units they are not the same as your daily driver

  2. I have had the lights out and the they fitted into wells in the fibre glass the only opening is a small hole for the wire to come thru, it won’t hurt to run a bead around them but I would be suspect that the window is the issue mine was leaking as well and I got a tube of proper caulk from a windshield place and re did the windshield problem solved. If you have mobility issues get a pro to do it it is extremely messy and difficult to work with

  3. Had the very same happen to me and this my fix. West marine epoxy and trowled in to the hole (after cleaning) and slightly enlarging used a threaded 1/4” thread insert and screwed it into the wet epoxy with the bolt screwed in to keep the threads clean let sit 24 hrs and remove bolt and reattach the awning using the bolt you just removed. I did both holes at the same time and 1 yr later still good. All pieces from ace hardware 

  4. The fridge came in thru the door, you will have to undo the door stop at the top of door so the door goes past vertical and take the doors off of both fridges then they go and come easy. You just need a big strong grandson to do the lifting then you can do the steering. I removed the passenger seat but with a good muscle person on the other it could be done leaving it in, but it is very easy to remove. I considered the 12/ gas option but then we are still dealing with a 20+ year box and door seals are not available and the 1465 was several hundred dollars cheaper than that option. The 1465 is much lighter in weight than the norcold. So far happy with the decision and I have cold beer and hard ice cream on demand 

    Also the fridge door is reversible it came with a left hand hinge it is pre drilled and threaded so switching to a right hand opening was no problem. The msw does not  seem to bother the fridge or my other mentioned appliances and all my power tools operate normally so I think that the psw/msw debate is overblown I don’t have computers so I don’t have an opinion on them but I do know my cell phone charges just fine. We are snow birds and spend about 7 mos a year in the motor home and we boondock most of the time

  5. I was in the same boat as you 11/2 yrs ago. I got the norcold out and put in a fridgeair 1465 this is about 14 cu ft and fit nicely in the norcold hole it left about a 7” space on the side for a nice broom closet was able to put a door on it. My inverter is a zantrax 458 msw and the fridge has run flawlessly with it. My battery monitor shows me that the fridge, lights, satellite tv and furnace use about 160 amp hrs a night about 12 hrs. I have installed 600 ah of lithium and am able to charge the lithium with the xantrax  inverter/ charger I just have to shut the charger off manually
