  1. That is one thing to always check when looking at coaches. Always have the slides brought in to check if you can get to the important stuff. The deeper the slides the further they come in to the center of the coach. Bill
  2. In Chandler we stayed till Saturday morning. The shut off time for the generators was 9:00 am if I remember right. I think we left about 8:00 and drove straight out with no "idle time". I would go for the 30amp area if you need consistent power for your CPAP. Bill
  3. This old post has legs. Herman they are so far into the wilderness they don't have Blue Bell ice cream. Bill
  4. I have noticed my display only shows 50 amp with the generator running. It will not show it on shore power unless the supply is below 50 amp. The display should have shown 15 amp when you were plugged in to the outlet in the pole barn. Bill
  5. Hopefully there is some way to drain it. When you are done siphoning it out you might try using a wet vac to suck the last bit so the tank is clean with no residue in it. The good news you can wash out the wet vac when you are done in a well ventilated area. Bill
  6. I had to look for it to. On the main page in the upper left part of the page they have a slideshow of different programs/benefits. You can use the arrows to cycle through the ads faster. Bill
  7. Phil, I can't afford a coach new enough to use DEF so I don't have any experience with the system. From the diagrams it looks fairly straightforward. I will bet it will turn out to be a best practice to drain the system before a long storage period. The only question is do you have a drain on the DEF tank? Can you install one? Bill
  8. Welcome to the forum. I would charge it off the same circuit that charges your engine batteries as they ar not deep cycle. Bill
  9. Carl, you are going to get hate mail from the winemakers because you arn't doing your part . You need more consumption. The upside of DEF is the people I have talked to are geting better mileage from the engines turned to use DEF. Bill
  10. Now if you could only get it to use diesel at that rate. Bill
  11. The first thing I would do is stop listening to people who tell you you can't run it on gas when driving. The next thing to try is do a "power cycle" turn the frig off, turn all your power off "battery switch" after 5 minutes turn it back on and try it on gas. Make sure you have propane. Light the stove to check there is no air in the line. You should be able to hear the burner light and burn. If it still won't work, take the cover off the circuit board and check the fuse. I think it is a 5 amp. Let us know if that works. Bill
  12. Roland, It is easy to sit back and give advice. I am going to back up what Carl and Black said. If you take care of your coach it will outlast you. GET WHAT YOU WANT. Let the kids trade it on what they want when the time comes. Well better advise is get one the wife likes. Bill
  13. I don't think I would have let anyone see the connector in the left front. For those who need new cables here is a source. They are sealed and won't corrode as easily. http://www.bestboatwire.com/ The custom made ones are about as cheap as the ones I got at Napa and better quality. Bill
  14. Welcome to the forum. Download RV Parkey and Rv campground reviews they will help you find and evaluate the campgrounds you are looking for. http://www.rvparky.com/ http://www.rvparkreviews.com/ What I look fore may not be what you are looking for. Bill
  15. What I did was I got a price from the dealer, basically an out the door price. Then with the price from the dealer and the price of the tires from Michelin I had a pretty good idea of the price and savings. I think having the Contentel program will help put preshure on Michelin to lower their prices. Bill
  16. You are absolutely right. You look cleaner than I did the night I patched a leaking air line under my coach. Bill
  17. I think I could get it turned around but would have to unhook the toad first. I did a turn around on a much narrower road with trees to dodge in West Virginia. I am afraid I may have talked badly about campground people who don't know how to rout you to their place. Bill
  18. Well if they do it probbabley won't be in my lifetime. Bill
  19. One other thing to be careful about is when you get near the border and you don't have your phone set up for international travel. You can pick up a cell tower across the border and not know it. All those apps that update automatically will cost you a bunch when it is billed as international roaming. Bill
  20. Welcome to the forum. Enjoy your new toy. Bill
  21. Ok inquiring minds want to know WHERE IS IT AND WHAT WERE YOU DOING THERE? Bill
  22. Add some water and shake the chassis till mixed. Bill
  23. This will be a must have for those who let their coaches set all winter. I wonder if the best practis would be to drain the DEF tank before storage. Bill
  24. Welcome to the forum. I think I would check my GPS settings that dosen't look like I-40. Bill
  25. Welcome to the foum. Bill
