Thought I'd report back on how we weathered the storm here in Arkansas. We chose not to winterize our coach, which we are using as a bedroom while visiting folks here. It got down to 9 degrees a couple of nights last week. We kept the water tank mostly full (bucketing gallons of hot water from the house in the evening), put a 125W heat lamp in the pump compartment to keep things down there thawed out, kept the gray and black tanks mostly full- with a good dose of anti-freeze in them for good measure- and left faucets dripping a bit over night. The line going to the toilet got slushy overnight, but never froze solid. Other than burning a 40 lb tank of LP every three days we were fine. I've seen few more pathetic sights than our Airstream covered with snow and ice- but underneath it all she was just fine. And I can't help mentioning: there is absolutely no way we would have been able to get to our destination in Hot Springs Village AR without 4 wheel drive. We most certainly would have been stranded somewhere between here and Memphis- probably over the Christmas holiday. I stopped counting at 100 two wheelers off the road in that stretch..
