OMG. I don't wish that on anyone! Friend or foe....I knew your DW had been in an accident and hope she's doing better now! What's wrapped around the rear axle?

None of my Jeeps would have made it yesterday and both have off road tires....our problem in Texas, this don't happen often, about once every 5+ years. So nobody has chains or stud tires, that I know of. Right now, according to UPS & Linda's son, you can't drive to our house in Burnet, due to ice! 1/2 mile walk each way. I lived and worked out of Stavanger, Norway in the 70's and never had more than aggressive snow tires on my 73' Jeep, rest of year was A/T's. My 1972 MB 280SL had street tires, Company car! I don't remember clear or black ice.

Nomenclature comes from, what it looks like at night. "Black Ice!" Since bridges and overpasses freeze before roads,, it tends to be coldest right before false dawn. Clear ice, makes equally good sense to me!

I'm with Kay & Ian. Is your slide HWH or Power Gear? Check batteries first, then open bay door under slide and while you operate slide have someone look at motor and shaft. The shaft is square not round....when mine on last coach, did what yours is doing, it was a two part problem. The gear inn motor is plastic and some prongs was broke off, also two rollers was stuck and sliding not allowing slide to roll over. I had a rocker switch and by turning it on/off/on/off/on, I moved the slide in 1" increments until closed, then drove to shop!

Richard...NOT. This morning was proof! What brought you to Dallas?

I would rather have a cognac barrel age my wine, or one that had Port in it...preferably from France! Congress has not had much to do in the last 8 years!

Hi don, what problem are you having?

Wayne. Dipped if I know! Probably just answered a heating post. Valance door awning with ruffles and heat strip?

jon48, I sent you a PM.

jon48. Your TV is a disposable item! Look at all the Links moonwink recommended...then stop and think!

Herman, OP never came back since posting in Sep. 2020....Good bet, he found it from WBills Link or Ray's suggestion. Joe, Kay, Wayne, Bill. Duh!

My old WB 2007 Tour 40KD used the Chassis batteries. It was recommended, that the ignition was on & engine running while bringing in slides, both the Driver side (HWH) and the elect. slides! Your 05' operator manual will have the info....in the event you don't have one, download it from WB. Ian may be on to something. Also, are there any issues with the other slide outs?

That's him! He's been up at the Burnet house.

Unless it is in Norway, Sweden or Newfoundland, my wife balks at that idea! Can't say I blame her.

National Indoors RV Center in Atlanta is my recommendation.

Bcusick60, welcome. I'm Past National Director in INTO and currently involved with The South Central Area. There probably is chapters in some areas that require a sponsor or two, I only know of one and that is the Crusin Cajuns, I'm a member and their only open to coach owners.

I really only care about the Lady's loss, not how! 🙏 Prayer for the family and 🙏 for strength in this time of sorrow to the wife! RIP

Weather in the hill country is 75 currently, but Thursday morning for a week it will be a hard freeze at night and 35/45 days! WBill will be freezing his N off along with Herman and several others in Lone Star Chapter! Our coach will be back in our possession in about 2 weeks....found out 2 hours ago! We will remain in Three Rivers, TX. until then, no freeze warnings, lowest temp is 39. 😂

WOW...that must be one of the earliest cookie cutter coaches (More than 1 built)! I wasn't even born yet....a lonely sperm that survived. 😂

I took The Fire Guy's, course 3 times....a long time ago & after the Seminar, for those who cared, we would practice with his help, if needed. Coaches was not anywhere near 13' 3" back then, so for me, no ladder needed. The same with my DW....Also we where both in our 40's! I shudder to think what would happen today and that's why I had the suppression system installed.

Richard, after you lived and worked in Texas, how did you cope with the weather you have now? I'm acclimated to hot, humid conditions and when I visit Norway or Sweden in summer, most times I'm in a light jacket, my family are swimming in the Fjord.

In your coach, I fully agree! I have seen enough roll overs in "Cookie Cutter" (non custom) coaches, that unless your pinned in, you can walk out, pretty much anywhere! Fiberglass and gelcoat don't hold up like metal. collision, pretty much the same thing! Biggest concern is to be injured and stuck.

Bill, the microwave/speed convection is fixed. The mother board for fridge should be there today and installed tomorrow. The oil bearing hubs, 3, should be installed by tomorrow. We will find out this PM about the 30 A system! 🙏

Your a year late! First and last time we hear from OP was this post...he's been a member since 2012 !!!

jon48, We had PROTENG Fire suppression system, installed in our coach last month! $4,700+/- is a small amount to save your loved once life! Google it. No "panic" exiting needed. We are covered stem to stern, including the inside CB & ATS. Peace of mind.
