Looks like a really nice camper. I'm sure you will be well served by it.

Where is the insulation and how much. The other pics you showed of the tour look like a classic plywood Teardrop with an aluminum covering. I was wondering if it's insulated.

Make sure to wash the road salt off both those new toys very soon! Especially underneath.
The sides are indeed marine plywood but also have a layer of insulation before the aluminum cover was put on. The top on the other hand has more insulation. I'm not sure how much but it is a small space and doesn't take much to heat. Even a candle would heat it in temps above freezing. Might not take it up to 68 but certainly took the chill off.

Yes I washed the car and trailer very good and got the underside as much as I could. When I was traveling through MT I stopped at an indoor wash which included a bottomside spray. Then starting in Missoulia it pouring and all the water spray washed the underside even further. From Missoulia the only time it wasn't pouring down rain it was snowing heavy. Montana, Idaho and Washington doesn't use much chemicals like the Dakotas, Minnisota and Wisconsin.

Thanks for the response. Yes a small space makes it much easier to heat. My truck camper is small with 1" of foam in the walls. The small furnace can take it from cold to sweat lodge in short order in less than deep subfreezing temps. I nromally just run it a couple of cycle before bed and then again in the am while I make coffee. A good bag takes care of the warmth while sleeping.
