RE: The Westy in a Disaster Any of us living inside a major metropolitan area are much more likely to be stuck in place, for all the reason already mentioned. So don't be stupid like I was a few years ago when a severe (for this area) snow storm took out power for 36 hours (at my place, days longer for others around Puget Sound) and when you go out to your Westy to fire up the Propex and make a pot of coffee and find that the propane tank was empty! Now I don't worry about aggravating the guy that fills the propane tank when it only takes less than half a tank when I have it topped off. |
