    Slides in/slides out surviving the storm

    I can not answer your question. But to say what us in the utility business say, "when it comes to Mother Nature she gets what she wants and leaves the rest for us humans to sort out. So if she wants it she'll take it no matter what you precaution is."

    Pre selection question

    Solar Panels - I was told by two different dealers that you may want to deal directly with a solar company (usually out of AZ). As far as installing it, that would be a good HL dealer or after you start researching AZ area for solar dealers you will probably find one that installs on RV's.
