If Tour is the same now as in 07', you'll find the GVWR info on back wall in closet, driver side! Also, what rating tires are you running now? Carl

When Winterizing, Why Can't I Just Add Anti-freeze?
manholt replied to kenmast's topic in Water and Holding Tanks
Read Brett Wolfe10, answer above! Carl -
Bill. Drive shaft needs to be lubed twice a year minimum! I check mine after every trip! I don't think you can over lube, just wipe off the excess so it won't sling all over! Carl
-
OK. The screws where all tight and after 4 hours off all the "bungs" are in place with a little Elmer's. Thank you Brett. Also, thanks to all! Now, I can carry on with all the cabinets in kitchen that are sticking...I know how to do that, been there! Carl

Good grief, I'll die of thirst first... Last seen your pigeon was on a suicide mission to the "Cibolo Guest Ranch"! I have black streaks on some off my wheels and South Plaines Cummins will look at it the 24th. I have given them a wish list that will take, per them, 2 days to complete! Normally, I would do some of it myself and I would also stay with the coach, but I will be entertained with recuperating from dental implants! It may be just soft cheese and wine, no crackers in Perry! I doubt the pigeon will catch up to me... Carl

Bill. In your sig you mention a Featherlite and toys. Do you tow it behind DP or the 03' Super Duty? Are you trying to tow the trailer and toys by DP? I see what you got, but I don't really know why you posted the "pull" question! Also the brake question! What is the length of your DP and do you have a tag? Carl

If you can get what you need for $881 per year....go for it. On mine, that only covers Liability! Carl

3 Insert Hitch On DP: Hitch Rating?
manholt replied to jcbett's topic in Toads-Towed Behind Motorhome
The hitch is normally used for a MC lift and toad. It's used to increase your tounge weight, since it will carry a 900+ bike and lift. I'll guess on class 4. Check on Hydra Lift. Carl -
Some good, mostly bad memory's of the Doge chassis, 440 and non radial tires! My headers kept warping....73' Landau & 81' Apollo. Yuk!

Hope he takes the bet, I would like some also! Carl

Bbpeyton. Had the same problem on a 07' Tour-- the leak came from a cracked fitting behind gauge, it's plastic! I replaced the whole unit with an after market gauge with ss fitting! chanke. As Brett said, we need a tad more info. Carl

Since we all have a DP, perhaps it is difficult to think GAS.... I have thought about and still thinking off adding a Banks to my Jeep! I did add a Banks System to my 97' Allegro. Results where impressive in every category, except fuel...$2,100 installed and a .02 mpg increase does not equate. Since all of Gales testing is done at Salton Sea, maybe that makes a difference, I don't know! There are a lot off older gas and diesel coaches out there that runs Bank System, I guess if it was bad for a 18 year old coach, we would have heard about disclaimers a long time ago! Don't remember when the first system came out to the consumer, but per his father in law, he was working on it in 82'! Father in law was my dads best friend in Santa Monica, CA. Carl

Installation Articulating Bed In 2015 Discovery
manholt replied to BOBODELL56's topic in Modifications
I looked up his floor plan, he's got a 60" x 80" queen with memory foam now. Kay's should fit and "articulation" is the wrong terminology. Head/feet move. Carl -
A little taste of the dreaded "change of life" ? Joe, your timing in giving DW a weapon, is not good! Let us know how it feels after you get up off the floor... Carl

BOBODELL56. What kind and size coach do you have? Carl -
Seeking Beartooth Highway Travel Tips
manholt replied to washtech's question in Destinations/Attractions
MSONTHEGO. Welcome! Been thru in a 34', never again! Next time, it will be day trips by Jeep. Carl -
Joe. Never, allow your DW to use you as a practice dummy! I would post a picture, don't know how...I would do me first, with a mask or like Herman. Carl

I too am single and a life member of NRA. Having said that, I do carry a weapon in the coach and several deterrents. My gun is well hidden, because I don't want to replace a window or clean the coach. The people that want in and also do you harm to get what they want, money for drugs, are less likely to do so, if they can see that your armed and ready. In my case, I carry 2 double barrel 12 gauge...just the barrels! One is clipped to the driver side and one on co-pilot side, so when you look in window, you'll see about a foot of the barrels & both are lit by a night light ! Been using them since 1978 & never had a problem! I will take a guess that 20% of the Forum members, when the need arises, will shot first and then ask questions. The rest will be shot and probably by their own gun! That's the biggest problem with a carry permit, shooting at targets, is not the same as shooting a person! The words, "STOP", "HALT" and "DROP YOUR WEAPON". Only applies to Hollywood!!! Problem with a Taser is that you got to be up close and in the persons face! I like wasp spray, get that on a perps face and eyes, they will not want to do anything for several hours and the up side is you won't have to worry about wasps in your rig! Carl

FIVE. Yes I run my Inverter, but the inverter can't run heat pumps, so when cold or hot, I'll run gen. to get both or a variation off all 3 choices...like Aqua Hot and refrigerator. One time, I had AH and tile heat on...going down the road! Carl
-
Bill. Read below my signature. My coach has not been modified. The refrigerator came with the coach new! Carl

Five. That's what Joe's DW wants....she hates slides! Logical, naw, forget it! It' a DW... Carl

I went to my RV garage Sunday to put some winter clothing in. Then opened the drawer that is the home for 29 bunges, Elmer's glue and a small head rubber hammer. I then took a bunge to a hole and screamed...the little SOB did not fit. After 16 try's, I found the right hole! Why, why, why does the manufacturers do this to us? Can't they use one size fits all? The screws are all the same size! Carl

Frank. My 2010 was built in January of 2010, the Spartan Chassis & Cummins 425 came off line 16 Dec. 2009. If you pull up the 2010 Catalogue, you will be looking at my coach and reading about it! It's the 45Y floor plan. Yes, it had a lot off things that had to be fixed by Lazydays (64 items) and took 5 weeks, but the price was right, I wrote a $53,500 check for the difference! My Allegro Bus was the new 37' design and that was probably 60% of the problem! Now my bugs are all gone and I have decided to keep it, so Texas Custom Coach will get my coach in mid April for a exterior and some interior re modeling. They will have it for 8 weeks, while I'm in Norway (my second home). It will be in West Springfield in August. Stop by if your there, or Perry! Carl

Joe. You should know by now, after 18 years off married bliss, always listen and obey the DW...you might even make another 18! Happy Anniversary! Take her to a warm place... Carl
