so far under the blankets has been ok, the getting under them was a bit nippy. Leads to cuddling so it's all good :-)
It does lead to some condensation buildup on the walls, and windows. That certainly is one benefit to having a camper that is worth nearly nothing, you're not afraid to go anywhere and do anything.

Cuddling leads to babies.

Which leads to bigger RV's and bigger trucks, so what's the downside? :-)
At 45 with no luck in that department, we're not too concerned, seriously shocked if we end up having Abraham's luck.

We went out when we had our slide-in, and overnight it dropped to -5. How do I know? That's the temp the F350 showed on it's outside temp display when I had to go out and start the truck to recharge the camper's battery at 2am. We were at a National Forest campground with no hookups, and the under-sized, single battery they put in the camper wouldn't run the furnace (set at 55) for 5 hours. And it was a fully insulated, winter ready camper, heated tanks and all. I woke up because it was so cold in the camper, around 40. Not enough juice in the battery to turn on a light. Brrrr!

Then at 64 you'll have one like the one in my picture. Just to relax in comfort.
