That's one thing we all fear...fire! Very sad to see that. My guess is that your truck was not free wheeling...what aux. break system did you have? Something odd & familiar about that picture....
-
Why would we want to do snow, ice and mud? Bill, the Dude needs driving lessons, not 2x4's!

The early Sports Coach, had a Chevy engine and a Dodge chassis. Not an unusual combination, between 1972 to 1983 coaches! The FWD was a GMC...would like to have one!
-
als4life. Welcome to the Forum! GS = Good Sam. CW= Camping World. Would help to know what make, model, year coach you have...look under my signature. Carl C.

Herman, yep. It's going to PPL, after we get back in August. OP wants a 34 not a 40! We are currently, moving my stuff out of Galveston Island house & it's being listed tomorrow. Time is running short. We leave in my rig, the 1st. I'm picking up mine at TCC Wednesday! 🤗 Loved the pictures from Lone Star Rally!

Kay, great concept...I need it myself, hope it works in a curved entry! -
Would You Let Your Teenager Drive Your Motorhome?
manholt replied to aztec7fan's topic in RV-ing with Kids
Now that I have a Fiance, who has 38 years of driving gas & Diesel coaches! Emergency driver not needed. Agree with Brett. -
Glad you got it...Happy trails & tales!
-
I have a hard time understanding, why anyone who can buy a High End RV, balk at paying the tax. Especially if you live in FL.! Pay the fine & pray that that's, the end of it. It's easy to get the plates and a LLC...how you now undo it, I don't know, but don't forget your check book!

2006 Newmar Essex No tank level readings on Monitor
manholt replied to tjsolberg's topic in Water and Holding Tanks
See Level, just installed...reads from outside of tanks! -
I had the 2011 Allegro Bus...Overkill & POS...AC condensate on/in a coach, 5'er, pull behind, is better handled by KISS than a "wanna be water reservoir engineer"! Go with Joe & be done with it, then redo every 3-5 years!

dmevis. Welcome to the Forum! Pre 2007 DP is perfect, no Particulate Filter, no DEF...my Fiance has a 40 foot, 2006 Tiffin Phaeton, 350 CAT, 85,000 miles...would have about 20,000 miles more on it, but she prefers to be in my 45 footer. I have 94,000 miles and we are putting another 15,000 on it this Summer in Canada. The coach will die, long before the Cummings/Allison! Engine/Trans = 700,000 to 1 million + miles! I save all my annual Service Receipts. You can take a oil sample & get a full readout on the health of the Engine. How long has it been since coach was taken out and run for 50+ miles? For a 34' DP, look to Fleetwood, pre 2007 or Winnebago/Itasca. Why 34 MAX ?

So far, other than a trickle charger...nope! I have to run a separate cord from batteries to a forward bay or a shore power post (if it has a 30), at home I have 50, 30, 20 so no problem.
-
Moonwink. I looked at it on Web and was impressed, by what it had as standard equipment. It's a want to be Trek!
-
LMAO ! 🤣 Taking coach to TCC in Pipe Creek, this morning & leaving it until we get back from Norway...some items are still on their nickle and some mine...fix before Canada! Got our Mobil Tech coming to house 28 May, to Service my engine, generator, chassis. Got to replace 2 probes, speed for turbo & low coolant, also new serpentine & hoses! Fun.
-
Ernie, is that your yard? Coach looks like a WB Advantage or Freedom.
-
I only wish the reverse was in mine! No engine battery charging, on shore or generator...
-
Bill, what you know, is what you missed, (me too) by not reading Playboy...LOL! I always wondered if they had one in braille! Jeg ma spore Linda, wa dere snakket om!
-
Welcome. Go to Class A motorhomes and click on it...you'll see Tire covers, right click, & 3 more choices!
-
I used to have a collapsible, "A" frame ball hitch, on my Jeep. Real handy for any vehicle, including Jeep, that had to go to a shop!
-
Joe, does that also mean that you bypass the federal mandated disposal fee? I had to pay it at my last change, even though they where loaded into a pick up and went to the Ranch, south of Dallas...hay trailers that never leaves property! Richard. I would have my front tires, pulled & inspected. Have seen too many perfect tires fail from the inside...you don't ever want to experience a front tire blow out at any speed in a coach!
-
Make, model, year, 5'er, pull behind, gas or diesel coach...would help? !
-
Linda. Welcome to the Forum! Is it used or new? Did you drive it before purchase and if so, how did it handle then? Brett beat me!
-
Bill. Agree! I'm not sure if I want to see them... DB, my Linda is half Portugues, from Santa Maria Island, Azore. We will be there, 3 May! I'm Swedish/Norwegian, we will be in Oslo, 12 May!

Lovely place!
