  1. Are your jacks hydraulic? You may have low fluid causing the alarm. Bill
  2. Hear is my list of places I have stayed on I-40 some are better than others and some were just overnight once. CAMP GROUNDS ON I-40 Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park,-2572 Music Valley Dr, Nashville, TN 37214 , nashvillejellystone.com , (615) 889-4225 Buffalo / I-40 / Exit 143 KOA Journey, 473 Barren Hollow Rd, Hurricane Mills, TN 37078 koa.com , (931) 296-1306 Downtown Riverside RV Park, 250 S Locust St, North Little Rock, AR 72114 downtownriversidervpark.com , (501) 340-5312 Overnight RV Park, 900 S Lakeside Dr, Amarillo, TX 79118 , overnitervpark.com , (806) 373-1431 Oasis RV Resort, 2715 Arnot Rd, Amarillo, TX 79124 , myrvoasis.com , (806) 356-8408 Enchanted Trails RV Park & Trading Post, 14305 Central Ave NW, Albuquerque, NM 87121 enchantedtrails.com , (505) 831-6317 Sun Valley RV Resort, 7625 Quartzsite St, Sun Valley, AZ 86029 , sunvalleyrvresort.com , (928) 524-2972.

Grand Canyon Railway RV Park, 601 W Franklin Ave, Williams, AZ 86046, thetrain.com , (800) 843-8724 If you can’t get into The RV park at the Grand Canyon this is where I have stayed. Nice park. Fender's River Road Resort & Motel, 3396 Needles Hwy, Needles, CA 92363, fendersresort.com , (760) 326-3423. This was a overnight stop because they had space. Don’t let them put you down by the river. To noisy as there were lots of big speed boats running up and down the river. Look at it on Google Earth. Bill
  3. Ok Ok after a short side trip to the Ozarks you can visit a real Indian Pueblo just to the West of ABQ. Acoma Pueblo and Sky City Cultural Center/Haak'u Museum Haaku Rd, Acoma Pueblo, NM 87034, acomaskycity.org, (505) 552-7861 This is a interesting place and is historically accurate as it has ben continuously occupied since around 1100. Bill
  4. I have to ask. What is the Northern route to go south? Bill
  5. One thought, stop in Little Rock at the Down Town RV park and visit the Clinton Presidential library. clintonlibrary.gov Now if you don't want to do the Pigeon Forge area, how about the New River gorge area Canyon Rim Visitor Center, 162 Visitor Center Rd, Lansing, WV 25862, nps.gov, (304) 574-2115 Bill
  6. More old threads, If you read through you will see that many self insure for exactly this reason. Bill
  7. Now it would be helpful if you put your info into your signature. See Carl's and Herman's above for examples. Bill
  8. I think it just helps them to find the openings. Bill
  9. More like some are just guessing till the final version on the implementation regs. are written. Bill
  10. Thanks O great one. We hope you didn't catch anything to make you move quickly in your travels. If so let's hope it is deductible. Bill
  11. The gage you are looking for is a Exhaust Gas Temperature Gage or EGT. The sensor is installed in the exhaust before the turbo. I won't drive a (diesel) coach with out one. They provide a wealth of information on how your engine is performing. Bill
  12. You can look at the difference using this tool. https://tiresize.com/comparison/ with the 275 tires you gain 1.8 mph at 60 so you have a little overdrive. Bill
  13. I think it would be a good idea to set the ride height so the bags in front are at the exact same height. This is what I think is happening. When one bag is higher it is carrying more weight. They may be the same pressure but the taller bag will start lifting the weight on the front faster than the shorter bag. This is why the first thing they do when working on the front end is to adjust the ride hight. Bill
  14. Yes one of the only ones I have has that I thought was edible. Bill
  15. Depending on how cold it is I would run the block heater from 2-4 hours before start or if riley cold overnight. I would replace the thermostats with the proper temperature ones. By the way Cat calls them "regulators". "Had to clean the CAC and Radiator" This should be a at least yearly maintence item. The furnaces can't put moisture into the air if it is operating properly. The combustion chamber is separate from the air going into the coach. Cooking, showering and any open flame will add moisture. No heat pumps don't put out heat below about 45 deg. Bill
  16. www.enchantedtrails.com/about_us.html Has one. Bill
  17. MERRY CHRISTMAS. No unfortunately it seams the OP is not understanding what is going to be required to get that coach running. Some one told him clean the tank and that is all he want's to hear. Bill
  18. When going to Santa Fe we like Santa Fe Skies RV Park. For Indian art and jewelry we like Sissel's Fine Quality Indian Jewelry, it's the real deal and good prices. http://sisselsjewelry.com/ http://www.santafeskiesrvpark.com/ Last time in SF had lunch at Palacio Café, 209 East Palace Ave, SF NM. To many great places to eat in SF. Bill
  19. One of my favorite places. https://www.churchstreetcafe.com/ Bill
  20. MERRY CHRISTTMAS TO YOU!!! Bill
  21. I like Enchanted trails because of the location easy to down town and "Old Town". We stayed at American RV Resort across I-40 but it was 6 years ago nice place but keep coming back to Enchanted trails. Bill
  22. Welcome to the forum and Merry Christmas. I would try to get Cat to pay for the turbo, can't hurt as they had a lot of problems with the last engines before they pulled out of the over the road market. Also read what I posted earlier about finding a rebuilt turbo on the web. I like having a EGT gage so you can tell exactly what is happening temperature wise with the turbo. You can read what I posted earlier. When you start your engine once oil pressure comes up go to fast idle. this will insure complete combustion of the fuel and prevent unburned fuel from washing down your cylinder walls and contaminating your oil. Speaking of oil I am running Shell Rotella T-6 5-40 Full synthetic oil. It gives more protection to the engine and turbo. If you have questions feel free to ask
  23. Why did you wait so long to fix an obvious problem? Bill
