I agree and wish FMCA would modafie the deal so it was like the TSD card. I would use it. It does claim higher savings and it would add locations. Bill

I have never seen a Hurricane system? Is it like an Oasis system? Bill

I think all of the big tire shops do this. It is for "liability reasons". When I had some tires moved around they did it to me at a good store and that is what they said. They also loaned me a tire gage and said we are done now you can set your tire preshure to what ever you want. Oldgrape, I have been running Toyo's for the last year and had no problems. Bill

No the FMCA version requires you to put money in an account ahead of time. Also you can't get any surplus money out without canceling it. I have one but never activated it. The EFS card by TSD Logistics works more like a debit card. Most of my usage has been at Loves, just because that's how things worked out. I am getting about $0.16 savings per gallon. I was excited back when I got my good Sam's card and saved $0.06. I got $0.20 a gallon savings at a TA on this last trip. https://www.tsdlogistics.com/services/fuel-program/ Looking forward to using it more soon. Let me know if you have any questions. Bill

I ran Continentals on my last coach and was happy with them. Hankook are probably ok but make shure you get the right load range. They don't show it on the website and I have raged on them but they haven't added that information. They need to. Bill

Don't fret it welcome to the forum. Bill

I was trying not to imply someone would bring in the slides with just a few gallons of water on top (feels like it) that might do something like that. Bill

james68, welcome to the forum. Buying a new coach is a great way to get rid of the Dimond shield problem. If/when I have to take it off I will not put it back. Bill

Buying a 2021 Class A with a 2017 chassis
wildebill308 replied to Dennis Heider's topic in Type A motorhomes
Well I would like the OP to give us some more information. The date of manufacture is on the Chassis information tag. It must be in the coach. I have a 2007 Spartan chassis under a 2008 DP. This is the tag that gives you all your weight specks. I would trust this number over something your insurance agent dug up. Op show us a picture of your weight tag. Bill -
Tiffin Factory Steering/Suspension Or Lack Thereof

Joe is right on the money. Something else I found that helps is to replace the bushings in the front sway bar with polypropylene bushings that are firmer. Bill -

Carl what parts do you need now? Bill -
I don't know if you know this but if you don't feel like doing it yourself erniee is one of if not the best flooring guy in the country. Bill

Looking good!! Bill

One extra precaution I have found useful is after a rain and before brining in the slides. Tilt the coach front to back to drain any water pooled on the top of the slides. Bill

Glad you are doing better. Bill

First welcome to the forum. If you look most (this is a hint for what you should do) have their RV in their signature. Second if you think a retired Marine MSgt is the sane one in this group, you may fit right in. Bill

Carl, Sad to hear about Nancy Wright. Condolences to Joe and family. I am getting a little work done like a new awning and fix some scratches (look like tail swing) that were there when I got it. Just waiting on the opening and parts to take it in. Would like to have it before the CC rally. Bill -
Tiffin Factory Steering/Suspension Or Lack Thereof
wildebill308 replied to litteachse's topic in Chassis
rayin, you are right I forgot to mention a good all wheel alignment is critical. Adding some extra castor is a good move to (it makes the front wheels track strait) do/check when doing the alignment. I think track bars help stabilize the suspension so you don't have as much movement like when a truck passes you. That second link I posted is interesting because it has a kit with all the upgrades.

wildebill308 replied to litteachse's topic in Chassis
First, welcome to the forum. There are a lot of good upgrades that can be done. My first step would be to upgrade the shocks, I would look at the Koni FSD. Try Shock Warehouse. https://www.shockwarehouse.com/ . Personally I would back track bars at the same time. Found something interesting when looking. https://www.ultrarvproducts.com/Stage-3-2006-Ford-F53-Class-A-20-22K-GVWR-Handling-Kit Bill -

No kidding!!! I finally found it. Try this Erniee, get to a page that has the header with all the drop down boxes in black and white. The first heading to the right of the "FMCA" is Membership. Click on that then click on Dashboard. Scroll down till you find it on the left side. On my computer it is the 5th thing down and is red. Good luck in your search. Let me know if you find it. Bill
