Have a 320rs on order. Can anyone tell me if these units have an outside propane hookup for a BBQ?

Yes, they do. On my 2017 320RSC, it is on the door side, behind the rear wheels.

Congratulations on your purchase. We really like our 320.

We have a 2014. It didn't come with a quick hookup, so we added one

I also added an external connection on my 340rk. It works both for an external gas supply when I am parked a long time and a feed for my bbq grill. Easy to do.

CONGRATULATIONS on your new purchase.
All the Columbus 5ers we have looked at in the past two years had outside LP hookups. Your salesperson should be able to tell you.
Our Columbus 340RK has a dedicated external quick connect just behind the passenger side rear wheels. We even saw a 340RK with opposing external quick connects.
We changed out the LP fitting/regulator on the gas grill by adding a quick connect fitting with a 12' LP hose...on more green LP bottles.

Happy Trails

LP Quick connections

We recently purchased our Columbus 340RKC and it has LP quick connects on both sides of coach. We have tried extensively to find a way to change to a quick connect on our new CharBroil portable grill so we too can eliminate the green 1lb. bottles but no luck. We even talked with CharBroil and our model doesn't have a change kit available. Wish we had known that before buying this grill at Lowes.
It is a cast iron style and my wife loves it but the feed line just slips into a notch and doesn't thread like others do so no real way to remove the regulator. I guess I'll just have to replace the grill eventually.
