  1. BOBODELL56. What kind and size coach do you have? Carl
  2. MSONTHEGO. Welcome! Been thru in a 34', never again! Next time, it will be day trips by Jeep. Carl
  3. 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
  4. 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
  7. Five. That's what Joe's DW wants....she hates slides! Logical, naw, forget it! It' a DW... Carl
  8. 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
  9. 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
  10. 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
  11. It will come faster than you think, since you also got to get a 06' ready for Summer! Now if your DW has her way, you could get busy on an older Prevost, no slides!
  12. In March of 2014 mine got stuck, as yours, in the in position. Made my dog real unhappy! Make a long story short, Rich came up with the answer. First grease every joint on step, then take (I used a rubber head) a hammer and start hitting motor & armature of motor, there is a reset in there and after hitting for about 10 minutes, I gave up and shut the door, then opened the door, step came out and has worked ever since. I now lube it every month and wait until step is fully extended before stepping on it. The whole step by step, is under electrical, this Forum 3/14 by manholt. Carl
  13. Joe. I did not know that you where "pudgy".... Carl
  14. The packets are being sent out now for those who have registered...got mine last Friday! Carl
  15. FIVE. I don't much care for 50/50 odds either ! Especially on anything over $ 100.00 Carl
  16. Are the 2 switches even hooked up to anything? Can you remove them and see if they are wired? If they are, trace them out. I suspect a lose ground. I also think the check engine, would be a link to engine analysis. The other one is like Herman said. Carl
  17. Joe. Out of curiosity, do you keep your coach in a enclosed garage during winter? Or are you part Inuit? Carl
  18. Last time there, I stayed 3 nights in Oasis RV Park, about 5 miles west of the loop. Nice place and it was easy for me to go where I needed and quiet! Overnight is also a nice place...my dog liked the grass! Little awkward in a long coach to get in to! Carl
  19. Herman. You need to tell Jeff your not peddling wine! Carl
  20. Roland. Safe-T-plus was what I used, Last one was on a 07' Tour and I highly recommend it! Had it on an 1981 & 83' Apollo, 87' Barth, 97' Allegro, 06' Southwind and the Tour. As long as your alignment and camber is good, it will do wonders eliminating drift and buffeting by passing trucks and high side winds. I also felt less fatigue and more relaxed at the end of the day! Carl
  21. I just got home yesterday, spent a week at Sunrise Point RV Park, Marble Falls. Great place! My suggestion is take the I-10 West exit out of S.A. to Comfort, then go to Frederiksberg and pick up 287N, good roads all the way and fuel stops! I have been to Granite and it's a nice little town, had less than 2000 real friendly folks! Carl
  22. Sorry Frank, but you just made even less sense! "So, no appointments". Then you wrote, "plus you can and should make an appointment"! What is it? Been to Red Bay many times, overflow is generator only...4 days of that is real fun. A town that rolls up the sidewalk at 8pm and 1 reasonably good restaurant! Just the place for a vacation....all my work was on warranty, or recall. In a 30 month period, I have documented 17, 318 miles to Red Bay! Yes, Bob was aware of it! I got rid of the Allegro Bus at 36,000 +/- miles...Lazydays was so proved of my Bus, they took it to Auction after they gave me top dollar and I got the one I have now! A 2011 coach sold at Auction, as is, in Nov. 2013. Sorry for being a little testy. For some reason, that I don't understand, it seems that the Phaeton has far fewer major problems than the other Tiffin models, both gas and DP's! Carl
  23. Thank you all ! Now more work on a rain out day! Carl
  24. Joe, also Google Suncoast Designers in Hudson, FL. They replace or de fog all RV windows on coach. Could not think of them earlier. They also attend FMCA conventions. Carl
