Happy,
You are off the hook. Thanks for the offer.
See you at Bus in.

Hap,
The hook was your agreement to transport a refer from Oxnard to Eugene. I won't need that favor. You were going to go somewhat out of your way to pick it up and I was going to comp you fuel. I got a really good deal on a 8 cubic footer with a warranty. RM2862 still being sold as new by Dometic.
I will have more on this later but if you find a refer with a burned out or leaked out guts snag it. I am going to share with the board an outfit that rebuilds them and offers a 5 year warranty against leaking. Costs $575 including shipping. When shops replace a burned out unit they discard the old refer and they can be had for free. I can get them in Eugene.

Well I sure hope it works out for you and if you come across something else you want down here let me know ;)

What sort of great price, are there any more at that price, and where?
$480 for the main unit to install in your burned out refer. Burned out refers are free almost anywhere they don't think you want them. http://www.rvcool.com/ (http://www.rvcool.com/)

I paid $795 for the complete refer and he is local and avail and I got a 1 year warranty. Rfer is like new and is currently sold by Camping World for $1400+. 8 cubic feet He has all you want as he is a service rep and installs new ones and carts off the old. 6 cubic feet same price.
The only thing that wrecks these things is the cooling coil perforating or being burned up. The cooling units are actually not rebuilt, it would seem, by all but are replaced. They are easily removed and reinstalled in the refer box for the GOAL.
Some rebuilders offer a FIVE year warranty. Dometic offers one year.
HTH....John
