Just got my new retirement home. As you can see the EFM will not fit. And if I don't like my neighbors, I can move!

Very disappointing, I told you what to do.... you get a trailer and tow it behind you with the boiler and a giant heat exchanger with a fan. When you get to Yosemite sit there on a lawn chair in your underwear outside in the snow drinking beer. The entertainment value of watching the environmentalist heads explode alone would be worth the expense.

Enjoy Terry!

Beautiful, Terry. 31' bunkhouse?

You know I've been talking to my wife about getting a TT or 5er. I've actually made a little headway. :D

-or- Even better yet take the stoker out and use it for camp fire. You'd be the talk of the campground no matter where you went.
In case anyone is wondering that's Dave from LL with his daughter at Meet and Greet from 2014. StokerDon brought a stoker along, actually worked surprisingly well.

Meet and Greet 2014/10th Anniversary, September 27th

I guess you would have to tow another trailer as a coal bin though.

Everyday forces me to consider what you are about to embark on. I wish you the best of luck next year on your travels. If they run in the cold weather I may pick one up to pull a trailer up North to Quebec so the wife and I can snowmobile next year. I'll have plenty of room though, she's not all that interested. :lol:
