It could mean two more things, they can take in twice as much work or they can get the work out twice as fast. Congratulations on having your son working with you, you must be very proud. Herman

Frank, we have all been there and gotten chewed out by the DW for leaving the fill valve open. Herman

Louise, Most all Chapters welcome guest. However some hold Rallies where the Parking is limited and their members have first choice. Some have a rally of some sort every month. I know of one chapter where all of the members live very close and they will hold dinner parties at each others homes plus 3 or 4 day rallies some where close or far away. Some will hold Rolling Rallies where they move from RV park to RV Park. Some hold only one rally each year either at one of the National Conventions or at their Area Rallies. Some chapters are so large that they don't like drop in's because of parking spots. So I guess the best answer to " Do any chapters require sponsors to be able to join your chapter?" would be yes a few do but most don't. Hope this helps. Herman

Plans for rallies amid Covid 19 pandemic
hermanmullins replied to Louiseg1948's topic in Chapters, Chapter Rallies
Roland, Texas is taking precautions like many other states. Most every Businesses require a mask to enter. Folks are for the most part practicing social distancing but there are some, but very few that defy the signs. At any health care facility you will have your temperature taken, ask the normal questions and some will, after you are checked in, will ask you to wait in your car and they will call you in. Hope that all are Safe and Healthy. Herman -
Bill Yes Carl has 600 hp with Allison 4000. His transmission is an Allison 4800, rated for up 680 hp and 2644 ft lbs of torque. So his coach is right on. Herman

Plans for rallies amid Covid 19 pandemic
hermanmullins replied to Louiseg1948's topic in Chapters, Chapter Rallies
We, Lone Star, will be having our first Rally since February next month. The Wagon Master or Host as some call them, has asked me if I will take each person's temperature as they arrive. He wants everyone to feel safe. We will see how it goes. Herman -
Joe is there a Sika product that isn't Black? I looked at the website and saw some good products but all that were for floors or roofs were Black. I can't imagine putting a black coating on an RV roof. Maybe I didn't see the correct material. Herman

TT, I had our coaches roof done in Perry at the National in 2014. It was done at the same time I had the coach washed. It was some sort of spray on and cost an additional $50.00 and lasted for about three years. I do keep the coach inside when not in use. Will have it done again in Perry if I can find the same crew.

Put a light outside and away from the door. Also keep the inside lights to minimum. They are a pest. Herman

It sounds like you have an alignment problem or you have a over weight problem.Your axles may have shifted. It can happen if you hit a curb or a really bad pothole. Have the alignment checked and each wheel weighted. Let us know what you find. Herman

Is it the door that is dragging or the drip rail? Both can be adjusted. The door by tighting the screws and drip rail by the screw slots. Herman

OK. Herman

I read your other post about Autoformer, are you talking about an ATS aka Automatic Transfer Switch? Herman

Fashafer, You can remove the screens and do a good job of cleaning them. If you don't know how, just open the window as far as you can, then move the screen towards the middle of the window and lift up on the screen. The bottom of the screen will clear the windows bottom grove and you should be able to remove the screen. If you have a tube large enough to lay the screen flat in it (a kiddies pool would do in a pinch), you can cover the screen with warm water with Dawn soap in the water and let then soak for a while (lightly scrub if needed). Then remove, rinse several time let dry and re install the reverse order which you removed them. Your screens should be clean and free of streaks. Herman

I have always found that when going cross country to travel one day and try to stop at an interesting place for two night. Spend the night, spend the day seeing the area and spend the night and travel for a day and repeat. This way you have time for a bit of sightseeing and can learn of places you would like to spend more time in. And you can always extend your stay if you like the place. When we have a destination we need to get to we go directly there but always plan to take our time going back. It's hard to set time when you have to be someplace on a certain time or date, but when you have finished then it leisure time on the way back. Herman

Remember if needed the interest on a motorhome is deductible on your income tax. I myself think a lot of a Monaco, as well as a Tiffin, Newmar and Foretravel. All are great coaches but like Ford, Chevrolet and even Cadillac there can be lemons and diamonds. Herman

Where Can I Get Individual Wheels Weighed?

Yeas but as you said they are VERY costly unless you want to go into the business of weighting coach. Herman -
Yes they have thermostats to control the heat of the water. If not how would you regulate the temperature of the water? Herman

50 amp 220 male to 30 amp 110 twist lock female plug
hermanmullins replied to hphock's topic in Electrical
I made a extension cord out of 12 gauge power cord. Put a standard three prong plug on one end and a 30 amp RV receptacle on the other end. I use a 50 to 30 amp reducer. I only use it to keep the refrigerator running and the inverter on. If hphock made such a extension card, with out the reducer, he would have the length he needs and can hook it into any 20 amp wall plug. No worrying about going into the hot tube wiring. Herman -
Considering a "COVID Escape" RV Adventure
hermanmullins replied to scrambledcj's question in Destinations/Attractions
Thanks Wayne, we have the Toll Tag but works in Houston as well as Oklahoma and Kansas. Herman -
Definitely if you like to do your own work, a side radiator is best. Herman

papa bee Welcome! A big coach drives the same you just have to remember on a Class C the wheels are in front of you. On a Class A gasser the your are under you and on a Diesel Pusher they are behind you. As for as a tag axle, to me they are more stable than a single axle unit and I have had both. That being said if you are looking at a coach under 40 foot a single would be ok but if looking at over 40 foot I would definitely look for a tag. Most, but not all 40 + have a tag. Good luck on you search. Herman

Considering a "COVID Escape" RV Adventure
hermanmullins replied to scrambledcj's question in Destinations/Attractions
Wayne, thanks for the route suggestions for by passing Houston. But on our way home we are going to Tom Ball to see Granddaughter and Great Granddaughter. While there I'm going by PPL to look at a coach. But again thanks for the help, Herman
