Jeff - My first Westy was an 83.5 Canadian model. It had the lower electrical port with a permanently attached power cord stored inside, and no dish drainer over the stove. The metric speedometer made me feel like I was going fast, and complicated checking fuel economy. There may be other differences. I was told that Canada required RVs to have a permanently installed cord. US models don't, so you are free to forget to take one with you. <G> - Mike Finkbiner '87 Westy Moscow, ID
