When I first moved to New Mexico last February, I had to wait 12 days for the movers to bring my stuff.
While waiting, I lived in The Beast. During that time, the temperatures got down to freezing (32°) and below and it occasionally snowed.
Fortunately for me, I have built-in holding tank heaters so that the tanks wouldn't freeze and cause damage. I am using them now as the temperatures have been down into the teens. Although the RV has a propane heater, it eats up propane like crazy, so I used my ceramic space heater to heat the interior. It worked great and my cat Sierra and I were kept warm and comfortable.
To power everything, I had the RV electric plugged into an outlet in the garage with an adapter.
