I don't remember any steep grades, road was mostly good, 2+ lanes of traffic, you may run into some light snow just before & after the I-70 cut off. -
Getting rid off all Fossil fuel, refineries & Chemical plants...is several centuries away! Thousands of everyday things are made by petroleum, good luck with that.

I would like to add. By being a member of a chapter, you will get a full report about what is "New" in FMCA and what needs to be Voted on at National by your ND. You can get the info from FMCA and still have your voice heard, if you chose not to be in a chapter. The whole reason for FMCA, is like minded people to meet up and share information that applies to our camping interests. As for the Assits, no one knew that Seven Corners was coming out with a 73% increase! That affected us, as well as all the other organisations that offers it to their members, like Good Sam, Shriners Intl, Masonic, Lions Intl & Elks (I'm a member to those). I'm sure there are others! -
jchaney12. Welcome to the Forum! If you scroll back to the beginning of this Post, you'll not that it's about $2,400 for a set of 2 + labor and Tax! It would help us, if we knew, what make, model, year, length of your coach. If it's a pull behind or 5'er, what size truck. Look at our signature below.

I change mine over to Aqua Hot at 40...woke up one morning and thought my AC was on, Lord it was cold, 34 outside & same inside! Lesson learned as bm noted.
-
We don't want to be stuck with 3 DP's. Linda's need to go to PPL, we need mine until after Feb. The Beaver is in the same area, that yours was!
-
Ray, is that your "Red Roof", pot patrol beacon? All you have to do is Goggle..barndominium plans! There are lots of them in Texas.
-
Bill E. I have always thought so! Same with yours! Most bang for the $$$...then we'll talk about your propane system, I'm still interested.
-
Texas, NM, OK, WY, Montana and the Dakotas, are a lot less populated than West coast & New England and I hope they stay there!
-
My last 7 have been in garages, some in rental units, some at home. At home I have 50/30/20 amp, water & dump, next on list is Temp control. We have a Barnominium in the Valley, just drive inn & enjoy a 2 bedroom condo! We drive or pull expensive toys...I want mine to last.

I have 3,000 HD psi hoses. Beaver & Country Coach, like Foretravel was over built, that's why the product is still running strong! 5,000 psi, does not surprise me! I'm looking at a 2007 Beaver Thunder on a 2006 chassis, with a 2005 CAT 525hp now...we will go & look at it in Jan. Yes, I have $ on it, to hold it.

Our electric grid can only put out X amount, most grids in metropolitan areas go close to max in summer now! Add in the EV's and I predict Brown/Black out, chaos! Especially around North Central & East Coast...Harris and Galveston County, is serviced by Reliant elect + others and they send out info every Summer on how to lower the use of electricity to prevent overload.
-
Bill, read my post above yours...I used one! No,, I have never had a trailer RV, just class A's.

Bill, well said. Only you can dig out the above info & Link! Thank you. Ross B. Had you posted what Bill did, you would be praised also! -
Robert, I had all mine replaced last year. 2 had broke off at fitting while driving...toad was a mess (used Dawn). I parked in a RV Park, got the toad clean, called a Hydraulic hose shop...they sent out 2 short, skinny guys who measured each line + 12" for slack. Hoses & fittings was $930, labor $300! I think the 2 guys where Latino. I mostly use Air Level.

I just sent him a PM...hope he responds!

Did you get this film? -
When it comes to E cars/light duty delivery trucks, I can only give you the experience of Norway. What was the optimal cost effective green machine, 12 years ago, is astronomically expensive today! As you get more and more electrical plug inns, you need more electrical out put, and that brings the cost of usage up! 6 years ago, the Govt decided on no more diesel cars. The drivers who had diesel, switched back to gas or elect., then the price of electricity doubled across the board. 2 years ago, Norway, who had the cheapest electric rate in Europe, 10 years earlier, now has the highest. As an example. Our office building, in 2010, cost us in US$ about 100,000 a year...now it's over 500,000! That's on 764,000 sq. ft. To combat this, there is now a law against any Vehicular driving in Oslo! Think infrastructure...like food delivery, booze, clothing, tourists, etc.

I had a cover back in the 80's...never again! PIA to put on and take off. Then I got mildew and no amount of cleaning would get it off...gel coat, no full body paint.

Bill, Ray. Secret? Duh. I had no idea that little film existed...Wonder how many National Directors, like me, don't have a clue! Perhaps Mr. Dan Ball can explain, why that Link is not advertised & marketed to every single FMCA member? -
I have the same system, mine was being cut in half at the fitting for being cut to short. I see nothing wrong with yours. Do you have any leaks?
-
Eric, I did not see the 10% off on parts. Cummins Club is free, I re up each time I go in for work & get my 10% off.

Could be OP only had Liability at the time or none!

Ray, I finally found the Link in iRV2...Seems that 80% of comments are pre Minot. Other 20% has to do with RoLo & an app! My FMCA membership is not due until 2024, but as I have said in another post..."Bill me for the difference & I'll pay it"! Even without FMCAssits the $75 is worth my membership!
