Herman, diplomacy is not your long suit... Carl

Good to hear from you again, Blake. Hope you still have just one hand free, on occasion! Carl

Ken. Well said. After this year perhaps we can move forward, one year at a time! Carl

Your 09' was built in 08', CC went full Bankrupt. and now is owned by Winnebago!

Erniee. If you have not done so yet. Check out Prevost Stuff...several Royal's for sale. Carl

Every state has different laws. I don't have any, but know folks that do and they have bought lots in one park. They use one and allow the park to rent the rest for a %, but more to it than that, just like renting out a condo...fees, maintenance, insurance, etc. Think FL. Carl

They're not as careful as you, your paying for their time, in the event of an accident your still responsible, and on and on! Cummins don't pad bills, truck centers do! Carl

Todd. Like you...I think we have better things to do! Carl

4-6 hrs for a test? How much do they want for that? Carl

Skip. Only number 7. 1-6 has been in place since 1971, no one could have foreseen what would be forthcoming by 2016, just as we do not know what's going to happen in the future in regards to Motor Homes. I have no problem with the proposal and I hope the FMCA membership feels the same way! Carl National Director

FIVE. You ever driven a Roadmaster 10 bag chassis? I drove a 2000 CC 40' Tag Prevost in 1999, I could not justify the cost and had no trade, to off set the cost, so I walked away, the ride driving it, was like no other coach I have driven before or after! So, I think the chassis has more to do with the ride, than the length...Drove a friends GMC 26' in 1976 and it also, was like a Cadillac! Currently I'm at Texas Custom Coach to get my back end fixed...turned out to be a whole lot more damage than expected, structural and fiberglass, and 1 Aluminum bay door to replace...will get a revised estimate and time frame later today...my guess would be close to $10K, instead off $2,425 original estimate based on photos!...after it's fixed a copy will be mailed to FMCA, this would and should never have happened to begin with! I was repeatedly told by the Parking attendants not to un hook my toad, that put this directly into FMCA's Lap! I was not the only coach that had a ops, because of the attendants in Shawnee, OK. 6 State Rally! Carl

Medico. Your coach is for sale, $266,450 and your F # is still attached to your front end ! WOW... Carl

OP is "Thinking" about buying a 2005! He may not have access to the manual. Carl

Herman, Joe. I have kept a log of all my trips. Unfortunately a computer and camera was stolen in 2010, from my coach while I was out playing golf...stuck in a garage bay for 6 weeks in FL., never occurred to me, to back up a log...lost 4 years! Camera had 750+ pictures in it from a 2 week cruise to all the navigational Fjords in Norway...I had returned a week earlier and took my camera with me to FL so I could edit the Journey! Both items was replaced by the dealership. The computer lives at home now, it's a Apple and the one with the log is in coach, a Samsung. Yes, I back up everything every month! Carl

Herman, is that why you raced out off the campground? Your "Buddy" said you was in a hurry! Kay.

There is one for sale at Lazydays rv in FL. Wanderlodge 43'. Google LD and click on used class A, then click on make, you'll find it ! Carl

rqburfr. Welcome to the Forum! Well said... Carl

Check for lose wires and ground and as above.

Kay. Where is your park brake located? Carl

Roadfor5. Welcome to the Forum! If home is anywhere near Red Bay, AL. take it there! Don't bother calling, just show up in Service (at the old Airport), it's under warranty and should fall into the 3 hours or less category, so ask for 3 hour service call. Dealership and seller dealership has been a problem for at least 10 years now. Not their fault, it's lack of quality control at factory...supply is trying to catch up to demand! Carl

atom6, welcome to the Forum. Had a 07 Winnebago Tour. Same thing happened on it, but the fitting was plastic! Then it happened again on a 2011 Allegro Bus! seems to be a reacurring problem Carl

turbostealth. Welcome to the Forum! Too true...it's not who's right, it's who's left! Have a small trailer at home, between it's weight and what I can carry, about 1,600 pounds..I got after market brake. A good brake system on a toad is mandatory in my humble opinion, even if your toad is a shoe box (Smart car)! Carl

BillA. Well said!

What type of coach? The Toyota's owners manual will tell you if it is towable with or without a dolly! Carl

Burnt contact, generally means that your getting to much juice...I would check or ask tech, how many amps should go to mother board? Did you tell Tech about your fix last time? Carl
