  1. When are you leaving? I have been told that Labor Day weekend is as bad in NB & NS as States...
  2. Mine don't have a dip stick...just a tank with mark for full & low. 2010 American Coach.
  3. I have the same...I have had TCC look at it, that day it worked fine! 3 weeks later, stuck again...I hit it yesterday, so far, so good. I will be replacing my AC System later this year, so new Thermostat.
  4. Coast to Coast, does not begin or end in Amarillo, TX.! Between now and mid October, I would not do it...
  5. You could have moved to Montana and been zero/zero!
  6. TCH is good from border to Moncton, however it's got construction on a lot of segments, speed limit is mostly 110kh=65 mph, towns are 80 kh to 40 kh. Figure 10+ hours, your coach don't have my fuel capacity! You can't use the truck lanes for diesel or gas...front pumps only. You will also have a lot of traffic, most are going to PEI or Ferry's!
  7. Welcome! Don't spend $$$ until after you do the free stuff first. What Brett don't know about Allison & CAT, is not worth knowing!
  8. Eric, if you freeze up, take it off Auto and use High cool. I'm currently doing that on both of my working AC's due to high humidity! My welcome back to USA from 2 months in Eastern Canada present !!!
  9. Coach, make, model and length, would help. Mine is on a 45' & hold 12 qts. If you have slide outs, it takes more fluid for the 2 or more slides. Jacks up, fluid up!
  10. Ray, Yes if you call them. This coach is a GMC, I would guess it's a 1958 PD4104 conversion, GMC was owned by Greyhound Bus Co., when they went with Bluebird, they spun the chassis off to GM...GM actually improved upon it and the GMAC was born!

    Retiring

    You may want to spend more than 2 night's in Big Bend. Where in Galveston?
  12. Ray, we got the same photos, just in bright sunlight & 63 degrees! Heading for St. Andrews today, looked at Reversing River & water Fall yesterday! Will cross over to Main, Sunday am...trying to find a better way than 95 from boarder to past DC! If there is one, please advice...
  13. Hello Nan, been a while. Congrats, your moving up! Got tired of the Pacific NW? Nice looking coach. Utility trailers are like RV's...you have many choices, both new & used in the duel axle, enclosed. It would help to know a few things, height of trailer, drop ramp or cargo doors, roof vent, electric plugs, tie downs, type of flooring? As Ray stated, weight is your biggest concern! IMHO you'll want a Aluminum trailer, like Feather light. How much does the UTV weigh? I found a 14', used aluminum, 3 years ago to carry my HD Trike to Parades..$1,800. It had a drop ramp & nothing else, I had a boat trailer shop add on the tie downs, cut a hole in roof for a small AC unit, got it wired inside for 10 amp plugs...I did the insulation and added a 3KW Honda generator. I pull it with my Jeep or a gas Chevy 2500 long bed P/U. With fuel it weight's 4,270. Carl C.
  14. Agree! 25% fuel, no generator! Could also be a bad oil level sensor, if your tank is more than 25% full.
  15. rickterzo. Welcome to the Forum! For future help, please put make, model, year & type of engine, chassis in your Signature! Good Luck & Safe Travels. Carl C.
  16. Only problem is you got to receive it at home/mail address...I can't pick one up in Main, when we get there! I'm tempted to stay in Canada and take TCH 2 and cross over into UP. then US 2 to WI and straight down to Texas! Less traffic, hassle, stress & cost.
  17. That irreversible problem can cost you or your DW, their life!
  18. Ray. Lifetime anything is equal to unlimited 4GB Verizon or AT&T...LOL. I miss Analog!
  19. I clean all seals in our fridges, coach & 3 S&B's, every 6 month's! Never a problem from any brand, including commercial.
  20. Per the measurement taken at pre-boarding for the Ferry in Canada. My coach is 47' 3", plus toad = 64' 10.5" ! My Jeep is 15' 5" (That includes my spare tire). We took 2 Ferry rides...they measure each time! I have never been stopped by a LEO in any State, Mexico or Canada in 34 years of towing!
  21. Having logged over 4,000 miles in Eastern Canada, 85% at 40 to 55 mph, I can say that any road in the US is smooth compared to here! You also become an expert in 30 amp coach management. We had C$800 and now less than C$150, every where takes Visa CC, have not been asked for a PIN # yet. Rate has been 24 to 30%, currently 30%, so spending C$100 = US$70. For me, box wine, is cheaper here and better than home, Beer is more expensive and Spirit is more (according to friends)! Average cost to eat out, C$70. We have consumed a lot of seafood chowder, lobster, mussel, cod fish and scallops! Today we will walk on the floor of the ocean, at Bay of Fundy, NB...did the same in NS! 40' to 54' tide's!
  22. Any where in the USA that has tractors and farm implement's...someone is doing hoses and connectors!
  23. Make, model, year? Are you willing to pay a driver? If so, how much?
