7mpg at 65? I'll take that any day! I run at 63mph on economy mode. That's 1600 to 1650rpm. Avg. mpg 6.5/7.2. On a 425 Cummins.

Joe, I thought you was a beer guy!? Feel free to toast every weekend this month!
Ah, yes. Work, the great equalizer!

Joe.
In my garage at the house, I replaced 12, double tube. 8' fluorescents, with the 1 center LEDs....more light and less amps=$$$$. They have come a long way with LEDs in the past 10 years and I suspect it will continue to evolve. The only downside so far is that you need a cover or go blind when you accidentally look at them!

Main reason for me to have a breaker is to prevent arching when I plug in....I don't want to light my self up! Also, saves the plug! You can wait 2 minutes for the beer! If not, you have a bigger problem!

oneway.
We know you have a Fleetwood. What year and model?

So, if the OP want's to spend a LOT of money, to pursue his legal option, he would have to go after Ford, not the coach manufacturer! Even though I'm sure the manufacturer knows all about this, but that you can't prove!

Bill. Your right. Because we now own diesel, we forget about the years of gas.
When I stop and reflect on my RV past, I start remembering the really good times I had in 22' to 32' class "A"'s! With the exception of one coach, they all had rear baths and bunk beds! The lower for sleeping, upper was storage. Bath was large! My engines was 440 or 454 aspirated. We did most of our cooking outside and had none of the modern day "stuff"! Nobody had a toad until the early 1980's...
We spent a lot more time outside, inside was reserved for rainy days and reading a good book or playing games...my first built in TV was on a 87' Barth.

What brand and type of coach did you buy at Lazydays?

Where did you get it?

I thought the F550 was diesel?!

Did not know that Tyler was still there. Last I heard is he went to North Trails! Most everyone that I knew between 08' and 13', have moved out of State or to another Dealer.

All you got to do is Google the area you want to camp in and pick the one that suites your need! Same with public transportation.

George. Welcome to the Forum!
I think you'll find out that your trip from Las Vegas to Denver, will be no different than from Phoenix to Grand Canyon. No matter which road you take to GC, you'll be going over mountain passes and up/down mountains!
If you take it easy and watch the weather you'll have a great time no matter the RV you drive!
Enjoy the US, just as I enjoy Canada!

Gary.
I use a pressure washer on my coach when I wash it once per year! Just stay further away from the work on sensitive areas or turn the pressure down!

Artic Cat comes to mind!
Or if you want try a $750K Earth Roamer! Not even sure if that would do it...I have seen them in Colorado, Europe and S. America, in summer! Carl

Tried to open and got an OPS! Then tried download, gave up when it said 4 minutes! That's more file than I need!

You would have had a few more "bumps" had you posted. "Toured all over the north and Cambodia during 68-70", 6 years ago! That was classified until 2010, some of it may still be!
Thank you all for writing a blank check & Service!

Changed oil and filters on a DP after 5,000 miles?

Vanha.
If you take it out, why not replace it with plastic? Then drill some small holes for drainage....that's what I have!

Have you charged your batteries by a external charger, if not do it. Then see if Inverter works as intended.

Thanks, Joe.
Can't be the weather, so got to be "short DW" or work!
Will miss you at wine, beer, crackers and cheese party's.....

kihei7. Welcome to the Forum!
I'm happy that your happy! Now, proof is in the pudding-- will they do the same next time? Or on a big ticket item? How much was the policy to begin with? What year and make is your coach?
Safe travels and enjoy the whole off North America!

FIVE. In FL. during the 80's and 90's I ran into it a lot. I call that the "Snob" era! Now, very seldom about A, B, or C...length and DP or gas? Yes, often! Still mostly in FL.

Herman.
Are you double dipping? Cabinets and doors...always been that way! A coach new, will run as much or more than the house, so it better have as good cabinets and fit/finish as the house!
