  1. Thank you for keeping in touch and providing the necessary steps involved. It will help another! Happier travels!
  2. docj. Agree, but it works best on your engine and mine...I have gone to 5 in NM on 2 grades, but it was because of a long curve that was slanted to the out side on one and a slow car on the other! On I-70 from Grand Junction to Denver, I spent most of my time in 3rd, Cummins 425 at 1,250 torque...very slow up to the pass! I want to do it again now, Cummins 600 at 2,050 torque! Bet I won't have to go below 5th! Wayne, your way is what I did on my 425 and before that on the 450! Even the ISM 400 on the WB Tour was a PIA on long grades!
  3. David, thank you for changing your Avatar! Wayne...Fantastic! Could not be happier...got my distant vision again and also my depth perception back! Joe, Edit is back!

    Bottoms out.

    Joe, Yes! Don't know the cost.
  5. I have taken 101 in both directions, from Olympia to LA and back. I jumped off before Big Sur & the Russian River to do Napa. Some areas are not compatible for a 47+ foot coach & toad. Found that out last time. Campgrounds was also a big issue! My mind was stuck on old memory of a 24' gas coach in 1976. LOL. As for your route, take Brad's word...my rule has always been to follow the slowest 18 wheeler down hill. The last thing you ever want to do in a coach, is to use a "Runaway Ramp!" If your real lucky, all you'll do is total the coach! Ramps look smooth, but the first thing to happen in a coach is sink to the frame, take the front end totally off along with generator and front axle, after that is a moth point.

    You also might want to look at liquid shocks...I don't know if they fit on a Sea Breeze!

    All, so very true! I will now take all the contact info that has been sent to me by PM and save on a thumb drive! Don't want to go thru this again! 😎
  10. Welcome! All charcoal filters that I know of, need to soak in water first, then rinsed until clear water comes out, then installed. I change them every 3 months!
  11. If it is a full paint job, soap & water is enough. For extra shine, I recommend Lucas Slick Mist, spray on wipe off. For the roof, a good hand wax, couple of times a year.
  12. Fun in the Sun! Hope the crazies keep away! When do you leave for home?
  13. Herman. We pray for a speedy recovery! 🙏 Joe, where on E. Coast of FL are you?
  14. The same kept happening to me in my 2007 WB Tour DP! As Rich said and then I had a air latch put in for back up...mine would come all the way out when stopping! That's a new pucker for the car in front. 😂
  15. Are both made by the same manufacturer, under different names?
  16. Or carry a green rug with Depends! 😂
  17. Well due to the amount of so many choices now, one would think that the price to play, would be going down soon! My Pass in Texas is no charge, until it gets close to $40, then its reloaded to $40.
  18. Thank you one and all, for your heartfelt endorsement, of the ball and chain way of life! Linda has been a member of the Forum for 7 years, has her own Avatar, I've known her for 4 years! Thought I would mention that. 😁
  19. That's probably what happened. The REV group owns Monaco, I would call their parts dept. Text a picture of the one in Owners manual...if it's not in stock, they should know who the original manufacturer was. Airman is not it, they make control valves for commercial trucks and airplane landing gears!
  20. Badmanrick. Welcome to the Forum! I just read about the RV Toll Pass, activation fee is the normal $14.95, do you know how much the transponder cost?
  21. Thanks for the Info. I just put them on (4) a 16' flat bed trailer, my first thought was to go with bigger rims...I'm married now!!!
