Replacing Stove/Oven

I have a 1980 16' Scamp with the original Travler Duette Stove/Oven/Heater.  Has anyone replaced one of these, and was it difficult?  Considering replacing with new stove/oven.  Concerned about having to modify the vent,  Thanks, in advance, for any advice.

can it be serviced and fixed?

can it be serviced and fixed?  my 1987 has the original stove and furnace/heater and both work wonderfully.  the heater required a new thermostat (digital that's removable is best) to get the best out of it.

Thanks for the response.  It's working great right now, but showing it's age (rust/corrosion).

yeah sadly the technology on

yeah sadly the technology on the stove and furance hasn't changed much so there's no real upgrade path here.  if it works and can be cleaned up, maybe just some rustoleum to cover the rust and a nice clean will do.  but there's no reason to rip them out if you don't have to.  the only way i would take them out is if i decided to remove that section of counter top and put in a wood burning stove to do stove/furnace duties.  i've seen it done before and it looks cool, but WAY too much work for me.
