Thinking of installing fireplace in cabinet under tv. I plan on running dedicated circuit, which way is better? Add breaker tobreaker box with new circuit or add male receptacle and separate shore line. That's Cougar X-lite 27rks.

My sprinter came with the receptacle already in place. I would double check to make sure there isn't one already hidden in the back corner of the cabinet.

There is an outlet just inside the curb side basement storage area. You can tap off that plug, remove the rear wall of the basement storage area and access the back of the credenza under the TV. That area is completely open and accessible (by a skinny person) from inside the basement storage area. I haven't done any electrical work on that wall, but did access the area to run wiring for 12 VDC LED lights for the awning and placed a switch on the control panel at the head of the steps to the bedroom/bath level.

Take a look at the access wall for the back of the water heater and you can see the rear of the credenza wall, however you'll need to remove the wall on the curb side to get back to the area. On the road side there is too much plumbing/heat ducting to crawl around in there.

Thanks JRTJH, Yesterday I removed the panel on the drivers side and saw the hole in the wall where the vent pipe goes to the roof. That's where I will run my wire from the new receptacle in the cabinet to a male receptacle on the outside wall under the black water tank flush opening. Will run extension cord from that to electrical post.
