Oh poo

I drove up to Albuquerque yesterday so I could easily make it to Tom's RV Services and Sales first thing in the morning right on schedule to get the new Dometic refrigerator they ordered for me installed.

I and the refrigerator arrived on schedule.

However. On the advise of two of their suppliers, who told them the Dometic was no longer available, they ordered a Norcold instead of the Dometic we agreed on. The Norcold is an inch too tall. I could have told them that - and that the Dometic is indeed available. The Dometic being the only refrigerator that will fit the cabinet in my rig was one of the reasons I decided to replace the unit instead of rebuilding it. I was concerned the Dometic might indeed be discontinued someday and then I would be stuck.

Tuesday, the Dometic has been shipped and will be here for a Tuesday install. Looks like I'll be hanging out in ABQ living out of a cooler a while yet...
