It's been many years since I've owned an RV and that was before there were slides...so I have questions!
We are considering purchasing the 3185RL and are wondering what the R factor is in the slide outs. I know the rig itself has R-9 walls, R-27 floor, and R-23 roof, but looking at pictures of the slide construction it looks like the slides may not have the same R factor or insulation properties.
Have any of you current Bighorn owners noticed a significant difference in temperatures in the slides from the rest of the unit? Do you feel that the insulation provided in the slides is adequate to keep the rigs temperature stable in very hot or very cold temps?
The refrigerator is in the slide as well so I'm hoping the insulation factor is good enough that those really hot days don't cause undue stress on the fridge.
Thanks for the input!
