What? With the iForce engine? Carl

You been running too hard for too long! Hope they gave you some anti biotic for it ! Get well, before you leave.. Carl

Herman, he has his own tools and bender, just not a manly one. Seriously, he does all that stuff himself..on his OP he has 2 pictures of the old one. You know he will keep us informed....he can't help it. Carl

Champion comes to mind, but can't remember if it was gas or diesel. The Renegade is nice and quiet, like a gas front. You can have a normal conversation! Carl

I would also, like to know how, unless FMCA is now selling email info, why am I getting all these mail's from C members? Started last year....kind of like Good Sam and I got rid off them! It really irritates me, because I have no control over it and I did not instigate it. Carl

Probably it has something to do with no body telling you how to drive going out! In bound, you get 5 different commands from 5 people! Carl

I just hate "Stupid" reps for Company's, that apparently likes to loss money! They are so dumb, they think you can't get the part from someone else! Carl

Now that I've had my second cup of Java...functioning mind again. Thanks for clarifying my mistake to a Newbie.

WBill, I think they stopped making FRED's....therefore they are used. FRED had a lot going for them, like not getting clogged up on dirt or dusty roads, lighter chassis compared to a DP, the drawback was noise! Carl

Ivan. Welcome! If you signed up for electric. It will be cut off by noon on the 10th...Just use your Generator, if you want to stay overnight. The elect. is being provided by portable generators. Just remember to come in with empty grey and blake tanks and full fresh water tank...there will be a honey wagon there, as well as a fresh water truck, but it cost $$$ and you will have to make an appointment. Hope you enjoy the rally and all the seminars! Carl

You have 1366 pixel and you need a minimum of 1800. As DD said...get a new TV. Also, you would get far more responses, if you post your problem on the Forum, under electronics...not a blog. I'm here because I was checking on a friends travel plans. Carl

Ray. Must have missed the sick report. As Bill said. Glad you posted. Carl

Red Bay doesn't take reservations anymore, but they still have the 3 hours or less going. Tiffin does prefer you go to dealer first....When I had my Bus, I got tired of Tampa and Red Bay is a lot closer to Galveston...I'll bet you a dollar to a donuts, you have capillary action from some place on the roof or a bad window seal...which also means that by this time, you might have some wood damage...if your leak, up to you, is left untreated, your coach will eventually have mold...also delamination! Carl

Chris. It also could be a bad caulking around your rear AC...water runs a path of least resistance, capillary action! Last year I had a bad leak also when it rained, I did not wait, I took coach into nearest shop, turned out to be a crack in the sky light above my shower...the water came out in the kitchen, under a wall cabinet.

Phil. LOL, bad to bad! Good luck. Chris 52. As Phil said. But it also could be that you need your roof re sealed all the way around where cap meets sidewall. Not knowing what year your coach is, makes it difficult to diagnose. Have you called the factory and talked to Tech Dept? Carl

In my humble opinion. Off the cookie cutter coaches of that era, pre prime rate and greed, Country Coach and Beaver where top shelf ! Carl

Brett. Beaver Contessa was a Coach and model, the ones you see mostly for sale is Marquise and Patriot Thunder! Carl

Unless you have very deep pockets, forget the Ferry. Are you a FMCA member and do you plan to tow? 2 month tours are available, they are currently taking reservation foe 2018 and will cost you an average of about $9,000+...your not the only one going to Alaska! Carl

Ken. Since it's a new coach, you don't say what kind, I would take it back to Dealer or contact Manufacturer. Let them figure it out. Carl

OVG. Welcome to the Forum! Good Luck on finding a Contessa period. If you know where to get one, please let us know! Carl

This time of year, you also have all the RV's going to Quartzite and next month FMCA pre Rallies prior to Chandler! If Ray left early enough this frozen morning, 32 in Bandera. He should be around Ft. Stockton by now! Per NOAA, expect high wind tonight and tomorrow, 25 to 35mph with gust's to 40+. Same goes all the way to Benson, AZ. Carl

KK. Welcome. There are lots of RV parks in Moab, also Monticello (about 40 miles SE. I would Google both, the only problem with Moab is wall to wall RV's and 4x4's from April on! So if you want to stay in that area, get a reservation ASAP. Monticello is more laid back and don't get near the traffic or RV's...City Park RV is a good one and a block away from golf course, south side of downtown...north side also has a RV park, just don't remember the name! Carl

Hi Mike. What's in the driver side, rear compartment? Just curious. I don't see any problem with your thought. Carl

Bill. It's only been 3 days and now it's Monday. He may be a worker bee or in a garage with no internet connection! Just hope he comes back with info on the cause, if he's in a garage!

Ray. Stay safe, long and boring road to El Paso! Also, there is a major winter storm, that should nail you someplace around El Paso. Black Ice is not your friend, nor high wind! Carl
