Awesome!! I'll try and trace down the wires tonight and see what I can find. I'll come back tomorrow with what I find. Thanks again for all the help.

OK, so it does look like I have the hookup. I found both the ground, the power, and the breakaway power. Everything looks good. So, now for my battery. I've ready Deep cycle, group 24 or 27. For me specifically, I'm very conservative, have already upgraded all lights to LED, and we go to only 1 campsite twice a year that we'd need battery power. We spend most the day outside, and power would only be used for lights. Can I save myself 30 bucks and just go with the 24, or is there a really good reason why 27 would be better? Every other campground we go to either has 30 or 50a service that we use. Any downsides to the wallyworld everstarts?

Here's what I found last night. I found the power wire, power for the breakaway, and the ground. Picked up a box and got a 24DC battery, got the larger box in case I want to bump up to 27 at a later time. I'll be installing it tonight, packing up, and heading out tomorrow morning!!

Looks like I already have to change my plans. That larger box actually comes out over the top of my post support for the pull out bed. Gonna have to go down to the 24 box for now.

The Everstart battery is actually made by Johnson Controls, and is as good as any out there. You'd be surprised at how few battery manufacturers there are. They just brand it for each market. Wallyworld is good on warranties, if you keep the receipt. Happy camping!
