What's Your Yearly Budget For Maintenance Costs?
ianbullock replied to mweiner's topic in Type B Motorhomes
$3-5,000 a year on average for us. -
Diesel $5.44 a gallon? I know our fuel prices are higher than the US but your conversion calculation is incorrect. Here just east of Toronto, diesel is currently at $1.21 / liter. At 3.71 liters to the US gallon thats $4.48 per gallon Canadian. Once you factor in the US currency exchange rate, which is $1.23 today..your price is $3.65 a gallon.

Why? GS isn't infalable either, at least that's been my experience.
-
Over the years I have used both GS and FMCA with varying levels of success. Can't say that I noticed a significant difference between the two. I am now back with FMCA and at the new annual price of $69, will likely stay. Apparently you can lock in for up to 3 years to avoid any potential future price increases. Of note: in the new Dec 2017 edition of Family Motor Coaching, starting page 10, there is an overview and "Roadside Assistance Comparison" that completely details the benefits of FMCA, GS, AAA, and AARP. Worth a read...
-
At $69 a year, I would give FMCA Roadside assist a try. Its definitely one of the best values out there and includes all services offered by others like GS and then some. Also it not only covers your MH, but all of your other vehicles. A great deal!

Check Out Our New Verizon MIFI Benefit!
ianbullock replied to larrypennington's topic in Membership/Benefits
Chindog, The plan is not limited to 256 gb. It is an unlimited plan. See info from FMCA announcement. "Get a mobile hotspot for only $.01 with a 2-year agreement when you sign up for the $49.99/month Mobile Broadband Plan (plus taxes & fees), plus get unlimited data.*" As per the details, if you go over 256 gb in any one month, the speed may be reduced. Would likely only be an issue if you were constantly streamjng video. -
Like myself, I am sure that many members prefer reading the actual magazine than reading a digital copy on a PC. I dislike eBooks and such. I consider the actual magazine one of the most important benefits of FMCA. I suppose to save $$, FMCA could ask each member at sign up or renewal to select which format they wanted? If many members chose digital only, the savings could be big.

Hot Water Turns Cold When Shower Paused
ianbullock replied to alwillumitis's topic in Systems and Appliances
This annoyance is more common than you may think and in most cases is not an indication of an issue in your plumbing system, just a leaky shower head switch. What is likely happening is that the switch on your shower head, when in the shut off position, is turning off the hot water flow entirely but not the cold. Thus the trickle of cold water. As the cold water continues to run it cools off the water in the line from the taps to your shower head. Once you flip the switch back to on, the cold water in the line flows through, eventually allowing the hot to make its way back. It does seem to take a long time. We have had this issue with many shower heads....still have it in our current MH. -
