At times I wish I had two ovens, not so much now but when the girls
were still living at home. The oven I liked the most was in the post housing on Fort Hood--it was built into the wall. Stove top was a
counter top model, IIRC, gas. Our older daughter's kitchen has a
stacking built into the wall microwave on top, oven on bottom unit and
a counter top almost professional gas cook top. The oven doesn't seem
to be as big, maybe because putting the microwave on top limits its
size.

I had a double wall oven (electric) when I lived in the tin can. My
top oven was abot 2/3 the size of the bottom unit. When I did
Thanksgiving
dinner dishes for a family get together I did the turkey in the bottom
and pies in the top. Side dishes, salads, and starters were provided
by others.
When I do my dream kitchen I think I'll go for the convection/nuker as
the top unit.

We've been smoking a turkey the last few years we've been home for Thanksgiving. Last year we were up in NY with Steve's family, almost
had fresh venison for dinner. As Steve and I were on the way to his sister's house in the early afternoon, a deer jumped out in front of
the truck. Steve stood on the brakes, stopped about a foot short of hitting it.

We had that in our first camper, worked ok but couldn't do anything big
in it. New camper has a regular oven, can do a small turkey in it but
it's not convection. Stove at home has a combo convection/regular oven, full size microwave above it.

That "free" veison can get quite expensive if it's Bambi by Bumper. A local body shop here runs a billboard every couple of years with the message "If you got your deer by accident come see us for an estimate"

It goes without saying the "big' oven would be fan forced as well as standard. I have a toaster oven for counter-top use that is also an
air fryer/convection oven. It lives in the utility closet with the
furnace
and water heater until I clear enough of my (very) limited counter
space to bring it out and use it.

Hi Dave,

That's why a lot of trucks in deer areas have bumper guards, to (hopefully) deflect the worst of the impact. Years ago, riding home
from college on break, with a friend, as we turned onto one road, I cautioned him about the road being notorious for deer hits. I'd barely gotten the words out of my mouth when we saw one on the side of the
road. He stayed there and we didn't see any more the rest of the trip.
Now when Steve and I travel, especially around dusk and in an area with lots of open fields, I keep my eyes roving.

OTOH our toaster/convection oven lives on a counter top right by the stove. It gets used quite often; yesterday I toasted half a bagel in
the morning and baked some short cakes (to go with fresh strawberries)
in the afternoon.
