Kay. Reflecting back, I must admit that age has a lot to do with me and my girl friend slowing down. Up till 5+ years ago, it was all about the destination, so my cruise control sat at 73 on most Interstates. Now it's at 63 and the Destination is based upon when we get there, if we get there! We will have 6 weeks to get from Texas to Indy and FMCA. Slight detour to Taos, NM and Denver, CO.

Good Bye to $249 a year Sirus! Like that a lot. My taste in music depends on the moment and Sirius does not have the flexibility! Thanks

I understand what your saying, but to me and where I live...it's a tad nit picky and over kill. One thing don't fit all. From May to November in the South and particularly in Texas, I can check mine in the morning and be 5 to 7 psi low, get on the road and check again after driving 10-15 miles and be the same amount or more over! There are a dozen or more reasons why that is and half again as many mathematical formulas as why! Back in the era of non radial or steel belted tires, we did not have the Technology of TPM's and yes, I had blow outs a lot. Since Radials and Steel belted came about, I have only had one, same reason, no TPM technology ! My opinion is that #1 thru 7 is more of a concern in cooler parts of the Country. Just my 2 cents!

As long as you wash it of with a low pressure sprayer (I don't use soap, just a hose) and lube it every 30 days, you should not have any problems. Also, very important, is to allow step to open all the way, before putting any weight on it...that includes pets or kids! Since I started doing the above, have not had a problem in 3+ years! Carl

Kay. That's pathetic, one more that should not be allowed out to play! Wonder how often he gets a Air Horn blast from a 18 wheeler?

Rusty. Thank you for the feedback! That's always appreciated. Congratulations on your daughters graduation! Unless you have another in College, you should now, have more to play and travel with. Carl

We plan on 250 average a day when on the road (I say road, because we might stay 2+ days in one place on the way). I have taken the Blue Ridge and Sky way Highway and last time, 3 years ago. it took me 5 weeks to do it. Can't take my rig on it, more than about 10 miles, so I found campgrounds within about 30 miles and camped for 3+ days, while exploring in my Jeep! Then I would move 50-80 miles and do it again! I don't go until after Labor Day! Cool nights, warm days and no problem getting RV space. Now when the foliage starts to change, I'm out...to crowded! Carl

Forgot, they are also involved with Six State.

You both might benefit by hooking up with the Cruising Cajuns Chapter! Carl

Herman...I see a patent pending in your future!

Did you replace it with a residential or fix yours?

That part of FL is not near as bad as Miami or Homestead in regards to doing the Wild Thing! I never saw a Gator on Sanibel and I was there for 4 weeks every April/May, almost bought a house there until I found out about the local property tax! Now, Captiva is where the wild life is at...it's attached by a small bridge to Sanibel !

If you have a 13 and a 15 is good to go, then you are in the same boat as Corona4me. Apparently, it changed in 16 or 17!

Dripping wet and a floor fan will cool you down in a hurry also, and you don't have to take a cold shower! When it's hot here in the South, I turn my AC (all 3) on early in am and keep them on while driving, also lover my night shades thru out coach...with kids, you can forget that part!

Wow, very interesting result. Cools down quickly.

By the way, I'm a Tiger fanatic also! Carl

Mike, Kind off a big stretch between a College Ball Game and a FMCA Rally! FMCA or GS has got to cater to a across the board diversified membership! Your a Cajun and I presume you Graduated from LSU...There are 49 other States out there and they all feel the same about their University's! This is FMCA, we have Regions and Chapters, we are a Motor Home Club, not a Sports club! We try hard to not cater to any age group in regards to Music or Entertainment . Quilting, Crafts and Ice Cream Socials? Yes. We got that ! Sorry, but we don't have and hope we never will have, the sharing of specialized Alcoholic Drinks....not a good example for children! Carl

Herman. About time you showed up! Linda has all my stuff and info...I get it back Tuesday! See you Wed.?

If your ambulatory and don't mind a up to 5 minuet walk, then NO! I'm not, so I will ! Goggle 4 Flags RV Park, Texarkana, It's off Exit 2 on I-30, in AK. Carl

What we desperately need in Texas is Expert Mobil RV service...Linda had one come to her house and did what Cummins and Freightliner gave her an estimate of $1,250 + Tax, for less than $650, she got her own Air dryer canister and replaced it herself from NAPA for $178. Last week she got 2 starter AGM's and 4 house AGM's, She had new Acid's installed in Sept. 16'...they now live in a golf cart and a 50hp tractor! Joe you should Goggle a cross section of RV park's... Same wit house cost

Joe. Have not stayed there! Don't do $100 per day, anywhere! Sanibel/Captiva is a must see and experience that all the women in your life will enjoy,,,also, some really good food. Get a day parking pass...it will save you a lot of $$$ ! Parking tickets are expensive! Leave Alli the Gator alone in the Campground !

CarlAda. Are you running 295's for all 8? When I got mine in August 2014, I used Superior Tire Service in Eugene, OR. 541-744-2000 have you tried them? I replaced my steer tires with XZA2, 315/80R and 6, 295/80R. Took them 2 days to find the 295's ! I will use them again! Carl

Look no further than Herman...send him a PM. I have the schedule but it's currently with my girl friend. Just click on his picture and click on message...It's very private, nobody but him and you!

fagnaml. Annual? For air drier replacement. You should not have to replace it. I have mine looked at every 2 years, had the filter replaced in November 2015. On my coach it back blows by itself, gets rid of any moisture. Yours may be different. 2 other DP's I had, I had to open the air manually every time I left a campground...lots of times I would leave and go find a place to pull over and do it. Nobody likes to hear that noise at 7 am! My Significant Other replaced hers 3 weeks ago, got it from NAPA $178. She has a 2006 Tiffin with a CAT 380. Yeah, she likes to drive her own and follow me...Chandler, AZ was a 4,000 + mile R/T...If you really want to know all about your DP, Join Diesel Club Chapter, we only meet 2x a year, but have our own forum and very informative newsletter. Also a lot of discounts on diesel products from DD, Cummins and CAT. Carl

Roland. Did you get Progressive via USAA ?
