Diesel Motorhome MPG-- Honest Answers Please
wildebill308 replied to luckydog1949's topic in Type A motorhomes
What is your average for 10 fill ups? Bill -
You got that right. Bill
-
Great now the DW won't be beating you up. I believe you were motivated to solve that problem. Bill
-
Byron, Behave yourself Betty needs you. Bill
-
Let us know what happens. I think you should be reimbursed. Bill
-
If I remember correctly they cut the welds, relocated it and re welded. This was to correct the thrust angle. I am not an expert but I don't know how just shiming it would work. Bill
-
Take the toad. Bill
-
Did you get an all wheel alignment? When I did they had to correct the thrust angle on the rear axle. That improved how it drove. Bill

Welcome to the forum. What did the tecks at Newmar say? Have you called them? They might have some trouble shooting ideas. Bill

No that was a different miracle toy. More like yes there is a dirt track out the back of this housing development in Conrow north of Houston on I-45 and yes you can bypass the traffic accident and backed up traffic. You will see the headwaters of Lake Conroe, some of the Sam Houston National Forest. But yes it got us around the stopped traffic. Bill

Someone breazed by one that is definitely worth checking. There are supposed to be some rubber drain plugs in the tracks of your sliding windows. Those little weep holes will make a lot of noise if thee plugs are gone. Bill

Welcome to the Forum. You will definitely find opinions hear. Bill

Like Brett said also see if you can change the angle of the mirrors. Without seeing it, it is just a guess. Taping things will change the wind flow . Good luck. Bill

The other place to check is Remco, they have been making things towable for years. If they say no then it probably isn't going to happen. Don't forget you can find nearly any owners manual online and see what it says. http://www.remcoindustries.com/product-pages/towing/ Bill

Welcome to the forum. Let's review what is going on. I see some confusion in terminology. I still get confused sometimes with what different systems do. You said you (put the inverter on). The inverter generally only power some circuits. What a Inverter does is convert 12V power to 110. If you are plugged into 50 amp shore power it will just pass power to the circuits. It will not take power out of the auxiliary batteries when on generator or shore power. It does not charge the batteries. "Thought it was a GFI issue, couldn't figure it out." Is your GFI receptacle button popped out and won't reset? That leaves the converter. A converter is an electrical device for converting 120-volt AC power into 12-volt DC power. Most RVs with electrical hookups will have a converter, since many of the lights and some other accessories run on 12-volts DC. Most converters also have a built in charger for the coach batteries. The better ones have at least a 3 stage charger. Make shure power is on to your converter. Let us know what you find. Bill

Richard, see if this place has anything that might work. http://www.icondirect.com/categories/RV-Exterior-Parts/Holding-Tanks/ Bill

You might want to read all the disclaimers and did you properly register your tires when you bought them and have proof of purchase? https://www.michelinb2b.com/wps/b2bcontent/PDF/Michelin_Truck_Warranty.pdf Bill

Data Showing Need For Auxiliary Braking Systems?
wildebill308 replied to gypsyken's topic in Toads-Towed Behind Motorhome
Mr. gypsyken, keeping in mind you are under oath. Is there anything you could have done to stop faster? Bill -
I don't care how deep your pockets you still cringe a little when the pump clicks past $300.00 on a fill up. I started filling at 1/2 tank or less as you used the same amount of fuel over time but the sticker shock is less. Bill
-
I am with Joe and Wayne. The major effect I have seen when fuel prices go up is people tend to stay closer to home and stay in one place longer. Think about it which would rather put fuel in the coach (enter your mileage heare ) or the toad that gets 30 mpg. 2014 was the last time we had a spike in prices. Let's hope it doesn't go to hi or last to long. Bill

That is a Escapees RV park, I would make reservations where ever you decide, probable starting now. Bill

Drive to Florida, get set up, drink a cold beverage and don't sweat it. If you want to be obsessive check your CIP while there. Your tires have been doing this all along you just became aware of it. Did you know your Jeep tires do the same thing? Bill

Welcome to the forum. For your first adventure I recommend a close campground or your driveway. Have a tablet and a pen so you can write down everything you have forgotten to stock and things that need attention. I think a local full hookup campground would be good so you can get experience setting up and tearing down. Being close also lets you do your setup when you are not tired from a day of travel. It makes it lots less stressful. Where are you located? If you have questions just ask. Bill
