Lance truck camper

I was at the RV Show in Hershey yesterday and found a good deal on a Lance truck camper.I already have the air-bags on my rear-axle for towing my utilty trailer but the saleswoman suggested that I need other wiring for the ref. 12V circuit.I've heard of the 3-way fridges but won't the #4 terminal on our 7-way plugs be good for this also?

I'm all for reliabilty and so forth but this sounds like overkill to me....Help!

BTW....I own a class A Winnebago and was looking to downsize in a conscience effort to reduce RVing costs while still being able to go camping.7 to 8mpg hurts guys and my family and I were considering another option.Unfortunately,the economy has me placed in a situation where my MH is worth nothing.Trade in was a discouraging $47K for an 04' Brave with only 34K miles.I loved that Lance but I cannot justify losing my arse like this.Trying to sell outright today and have gotten a few responses even this early,but it seems it is a buyers market and the buyers are educated of this.
