Traveling from Fla to Michigan Upper Penninsula
wildebill308 replied to DCSaver's question in Destinations/Attractions
One place I consider a must see is the Ford Museum of innovation. It will take several days to see everything. I recommend buying a membership that is good for a year. It is cheaper than a 2 day pass. https://www.thehenryford.org/ Bill -
Traveling from Fla to Michigan Upper Penninsula
wildebill308 replied to DCSaver's question in Destinations/Attractions
How long do you have to make this trip? I think 3 days in a car would be optimistic. First trip in a RV I don't think so. First of all I would plan on a short driving day the first couple of days. 150-200 miles make shure you have a place to stay reserved so you can get in get set up when it is still light and relax. Learning a new rig is stress full and tiering even if you have had one before. Getting into a place and setting up in the dark while being exhausted from driving takes a lot of the fun out of travel. I have found that 50 mph is about what you average on a travel day. You might be driving 70 but add in fuel stops and rest stops and lets not forget traffic slowdowns. You will find you average about 50 mph. So Yes go re read what elkhartjim said to. Let me know Bill -

Sorry to hear your wife is having problems. I know we all have to leave the road eventually but I would not rush into any decisions yet. Bill -
Left turn blind spot with oncoming traffic from the right
wildebill308 replied to bounder04's topic in Type C Motorhomes
You know how long it takes to make the turn so don't turn till you have enough distance and time from on coming traffic to make the turn. If there isn't a good sight line don't turn there. Go to a light or where you can see/ have time to make the turn. Bill -
I don't have much experience with recoating the roof and I agree with Rayin. Have you looked at any of the coatings that are like a bead liner for a pickup? Bill

Cummins 400 ISL derating (power loss)
wildebill308 replied to john_harris's topic in Type A motorhomes
I would think the 2007 is before the exhaust filter. Easy to tell just look. The filter is much bigger and more complicated. Bill- 8 replies

Ray beat me to it. You cleaned the inside of the radiator but getting the outside and especially between all the stacks cleaning may help. Just be carful that you don't use to much pressure and damage the fins. Bill- 8 replies

Slide topper replacement on Class C Forest River

I would look at Tough Top awnings. What I have seen look great. Like Ray said look on You tube for lots of videos on how to. Bill -

wildebill308 replied to john_harris's topic in Type A motorhomes
Is that a side or rear radiator coach? Are you manually down shifting on the hills? Do you have the "Econ" button on the transmission on? Bill- 8 replies

Glad you’ll be back on the road. I wondered what happened as you hadn't posted. Bill

I would take the light fixture out and look at it and test it. Bill

Who, What, When, Where or Just Lets Talk
wildebill308 replied to hermanmullins's topic in General Discussion
The snow in the park and around Williams mostly melted. But they had enough to close I-10 over by Flagstaff for a while. I am glad I could stay an extra day. In ABQ tonight at Enchanted Trails RV Park & Trading Post. The owner collects cars and vintage RVs. He also rents out some of the old trailers so you can stay in them. One I like is a old Hudson and proper period trailer hoked up ready to go. Headed to Amarillo tomorow. Bill -

wildebill308 replied to hermanmullins's topic in General Discussion
We finished the AIM rally in Las Vegas and headed out. Made it to Williams AZ last night. Had bad side and head winds. We decided to stay an extra day in Williams at the Grand Canyon Railway RV Park as that "dusting of snow" turned into about 6". Something I never thought to ask about a RV park is how good is their snow removal plan. Headed to ABQ tomorrow. Bill
