Considering getting a Travco and I was curious how big of LP tanks normally came on them?\n\nI did a bit of searching and I found an old article in an October 1974 copy of SKIING magazine which stated their "27 foot Travco model 960" had a 68 pound propane tank. Not sure what year theirs was.\nsource:

Curious how much LP you are able to carry and how many nights you can run the furnace etc in 0 degree weather. Ideally I would also have the generator run off propane as well. I would love to have atleast a 3-week supply of propane on-board for heating, showering, cooking etc.\n\nI see the
Flame King brand makes RV propane tanks and the largest one I have found is 15" x 48" holding 29.3 gallons or about 120 pounds. \n
\n( Flame King YSN293 )\nCurious if travcos have room underneath to mount one or two of these? Anyone know what diameter their under-hung tanks are? Would love a ton of capacity but hate to lose ground clearance or storage space. \nIs there much un-utilized space under your travco for hanging additional tanks etc?\n\nThanks
