Carl,
We’re a couple of days behind you in Amarillo. We’re enjoying (for us) the balmy weather. We left Lincoln at 9 degrees above zero. We have found that there is enough thermal inertia in our GMC’s water/waste systems to comfortably survive a night that cold if the following day warms up. Since we don’t have a macerator yet I wasn’t comfortable commenting before. Safe journeys.
