  1. I'd recommend you diagnose this by removing stuff from the system - starting with the inverter itself. You should be able to set it so the inverter does not come on automatically, using either the remote panel (assuming you have one) or the buttons on the inverter itself. Also, I'd remove the surge guard from the power chain, if you can. As mentioned by others, you have TWO transfer switches: one that switches automatically from shore to generator as needed; one that switches a portion of the load automatically from shore/generator to inverter, usually feeding a sub-panel. Another thing you might be asking, is under what circumstances does the power go off? Are you using heat strips that somehow are powered through the inverter (they shouldn't be)? Most RV inverters are rated for 2000 or 3000 watts - quite a lot, but not enough to power the whole coach. Hence the subpanel, which shouldn't have heaters or A/C connected to it. And if you have a plug-in heater, it shouldn't be plugged in to an inverter-supplied outlet. If nothing else, you do *not* want to be running heaters on battery power! The more information you supply as to what exactly the symptoms are and when they occur, and exactly what your equipment is, the better your chances of getting useful answers.
  2. If you go to p. 14 of this link: https://www.fleet.ford.com/showroom/rv_trailer_towing/2012/2012_default.asp (this is an official Ford site) you will see that the hybrids are now the *only* towable Fusions. The page says it was updated in March. Don't go faster than 75 mph!

    Toyo Tires

    Yes, Toyo M122 tires were standard on Alpine Coach motorhomes until about 2006. I replaced the steer tires on my 2001 34-foot coach at 30,000 miles in 2005, substituting the premium M147s. Replaced the rear tires with M122s at 52,000 miles in 2006. Replaced one front tire in January 2010 (M147 again) at 92,000 miles and the other in November 2010 at 102,000 miles. The rear tires are still looking good. I carry about 110 pounds front, 95 pounds rear.
