tmoning. Thank you for the help! Issue has been resolved. Carl

Judge, now that you posted a reply and further information, I'm inclined to agree with Joe. I'll pass next time. Perhaps they have become too "BIG" and now feel untouchable. There are other truck & RV wash/ wax company's out there! I did love the price! Carl

Five. Your right. My mind has a short circuit every once in a while! I call it, "overload of data". Carl

Something that we should all remember and think about. From beginning to current, the US Marine, who guards the tomb of the unknown soldier, does not take a break for a Storm! They walk their post 24/7/365 in full dress uniform...no parkas allowed. White gloves! God Bless Carl

Ken. My Jeep Wrangler Sport has also been modified. One thing is that your tow is level or +/- 2", I had a welder build me a "Z" extension out off 3" angle iron (stainless 1/4" steel) for my hitch receiver. My Roadmaster 6000 fits into and through the top of "Z", pin goes thru both & secured by a barrel lock. I don't have a base plate, I use the bracket for the "D" rings on a Stainless Steel bumper that is bolted and welded to frame! To prevent wear and tear of my front tires (34" NITTO) I installed track bars. I have a 3" lift & I tow level. My Jeep is still a work in progress! At 72+, I have to have my toys! Carl

BANDERSON. Ford says yes, up to 2010. Then in 2012 Ford said that only the model with a electronic automatic transmission (eVAT) can be towed 4 wheels down! That was posted in this section by FMCA. If the 2012 bulletin has been revised by Ford, it has not been posted on this Forum! I recommend you contact Ford, not a dealer! Carl

Joe, all you need to do now, is find your RV under all the snow! Carl

Why where you not on electric? Carl

I also found that as long as I'm looking at other posts on Forum, it stays big until I go to another place, like mail. Wonderful !!! Carl

I use my dishwasher for paper storage. Plates for crackers and cheese, napkins and bowels for cereal and ice cream...everything else is "correlle"! Dishwasher is me or when I roll down the road I let the ride wash them!

Tom. I'm surprised that the Forum will allow that kind of controversial blog or comment to be posted to begin with! So far, everything has been based upon constructive information, that we can all give positive information and or learn from! Your Blogs are all very informative and makes me feel like I'm on the trip with you! Your information on other subjects within the Forum is open, knowledgeable and helps the person who post the question! If a comment can be made by anyone and then, no one is allowed a rebuttal, that makes me feel that it was fabricated or embellished to begin with! Carl

Shrinking comes with "older eyes"! I too would like to see it bigger.

I have twice written a comment in regards to "Blue Beacon" Blog. Both times a pop up says "I need moderator approval before my comment will be posted"! Is judgebobk some kind of VIP that I have never heard about? Carl

lamsan, I'm glad your a fan of Tiffin and that you have what you want! That was the question! What is your floor plan? Carl

One thing about Texas, like Montana and Alaska, we still have wide open spaces and it's a lot warmer than the other 2! You could even bring your business down here and make a very nice living! Cost off living is about half off yours and income about the same! What's not to like? Carl

FIVE, You'll get no argument from me on that...I will put in the same, when it's time! The original owner, replaced all off the batteries and new cables, just prior to trade in! He got an Eagle....the only batteries I replaced with AGM was chassis & they are difficult to get too! The slide out tray works fine, after you take the hydraulic struts off the door!!! I figure I have 2 more years...hopefully! Carl

Like Tom, I have seating for 6 and no one feels cramped. My kitchen is L shaped (I love to cook, cause I love to eat) and it serves my purpose very well. Rear bedroom, with more closet and drawer space than I can use(full timers dream) and I use my coach about 18 weeks a year. I have a large street side bath with double sink, double medicine cabinet, lots of storage and a 42" x 36" shower! My aisle is curb side, rather than down the middle, it's a great floor plan! Sometimes I'll cook for a crowed outside and the 32" TV comes in handy. Since I travel alone, I have much more space than I really need, but I'm not complaining. I, like Tom haven't all the modern electronics, but what I have keeps me busy! It's an all electric coach, with residential fridge, dishwasher and stackable washer & dryer....if I ever want to full time it, then this coach is the perfect vehicle! All the floor plans that I have seen in the past 4 years, all look the same. Whether it be a cookie cutter or a million dollar custom Prevost ! The coach I have now is my 10th in 48 years of class A's! If I ever buy another, it will be a pre 2006! Carl

OK, my Allison is only 3000, have just one bath so 1 macerator toilet. Don't have insta hot water, 8 reg batteries and 2 AGM for engine! Can't see the extra $200,000! Per the spec sheet, you have a bigger engine and HD Allison! You and I both have LED lights. I presume you have a dishwasher. Now that I'm thinking about it...if you have not already done so, find your 2 (one for each toilet) in line 20 amp fuse and make sure they are 20 amp! Mine was a 15 (marine use) RV is 20. I found mine under the drawer beneath the dishwasher...AC help line had it behind the back panel off toilet! So now I have a 6"x6" hole covered by a picture of a dog on the throne! Carl

FIVE, wait until you need to change them out $2,400 at Lazydays & that is cheap! Have a friend in SWG INTO, has a 14' used Eagle and had to change out his last year, don't remember why, but it had something to do with a trip to Alaska! He decided to do it himself: Batteries $1,200, having them installed (he forgot to note where each cable went) $800, saved $200. But the Chiropractor for his back was 6 weeks, 3X per week at $40 per visit $720 and 2 months off no golf !!! They live behind the 7th green at Lake Windermere, FL. He now lets the Pro's do everything...with the DW's blessing! Carl

Rich, last I heard, NYC is upgraded to 2 feet+, good thing it's Saturday! Can't imagine the traffic snarl on a weekday! Another reason to live in the South!!! Carl

Bill. You are so right about stress on U Joint and I would guess that 98% of DP owners don't even think about them being an integral part of the coach! About 3 years ago at a SKP rally, we had a new member with his first coach, a DP 04' Dynasty and he made the comment that "he did not have a U Joint", Huh! Sad! Carl

Gunny, Thank you for your Service ! Carl

Bill, thank you for the links! Very informative and I learned a lot! Now my list has grown by leaps! Carl

I use Lucas Slick Mist on my whole coach (not roof) and it helps the bugs to slide off the bra...mine is 6 years old now and still looks good! I pressure wash the coach every 6 months and know people who uses Lucas daily and haven't had to wash for 2 and 3 years! When it becomes necessary to remove the bra, I'll let a pro do it (I know my limitations). Carl

Bill. Don't know what your driving, but it will be a hot day in h....before I roll 315 and 295/80's around ! Since I'm tall, 6' 8", the first thing that goes out is my back! I leave anything over 100# and crawling around the roof, underside of coach to professionals! Yes Bill, Herman and I are both older than you! I do most of the inside myself, batteries (I can sit on a stool), some engine and generator work, electrical and plumbing! I do agree that if it had not been for the Forum I would have done much less! There is no such thing as a "Dumb" or "Stupid" question! Everything in life is a learning curve... Carl
