Hi, I am a longtime lurker, getting closer to a purchase for my 02 Tacoma. Leaning towards a shell model as I like to KISS (Keep it Simple, Stupid). Been trying to wait for that perfect used Eagle or Ranger, but I live in Ohio and most used units are on the west coast it seems.
Also need to say that the inspiration, innovation and thought that the users of wtw have put into their campers is breathtaking at times.
Was curious if anyone on the board, particularly those with maritime leanings had ever used an alcohol stove/heater combo in their FWC or ATC. Back in the day I made a backpacking "plumbers" alcohol stove which outperformed any commercial model and was light. I never had a problem finding fuel (denatured alcohol). A good friend was badly injured in a propane tank explosion and i have always been leary since. This is a pic of a model that doubles as a stove or a 5,200 BTU heater for boats.
Also, thought this might be of interest to the forum. Might put Engel out of business if they can actually mass produce them.
