2006 Fiat Ducato Jayco Conquest auxilliary power?
(Preview)
I pick up this van tomorrow, and this is my first motorhome. We plan to use a mixture of caravan parks and off-grid sites whilst on the road, so want a level of independence. Would I be better installing Solar on the roof, carrying portable solar panels or carrying a genset? Thanks in advance

Water system modification.
(Preview)
Today I am going to modify the caravans water system, so that I can split the hot and cold side. When finished I should be able to run van tank water only through the hot side, and have bore or rubbish water on the cold side, selectable by turning a valve (or two).
