What year is your unit?

Bill, what I was referring to was the X12 not X15. I would think that the X15 would weigh more than the X12. Why get a X15/450 hp? I have no clue! The X12 is a 400-500 hp engine & the 450 hp with 1750 ft. lbs. will run on the Allison 3000. Maybe with the X15, 450 hp, they can get the same torque as the 605 !

DB...No but was parked next to one at the Indy rally...very noisy! I really, really don't see a use for them!

Did not work! Switch over to Test.

Per my specs, I'm suppose to have a 150 gal fuel tank & at 25% of fuel left, my generator will cut out & so will Aqua Hot if it's on diesel. That should leave 37.5 gallons to find a fuel stop. Actually I subtract 10%! Last year in Jan. I got down to a 1/4 tank mark in freezing weather, snow and no fuel stop that I could use. Closes Truck Stop was 200+ miles away...pucker time! Told Linda, when generator shuts down, all we got would be dash heat & coach would get cold fast. Well, it stayed on gen until we stopped to fill up...I took 137+ gallons! Linda called Spartan while I was on pump, gave them all the info they wanted...In this coach Spartan put a 186 gallon tank by mistake! That's why I re-zero my tripometer each time I fill up! In Canada, 4300+ miles last summer, I filled up 5 times...we ran Aqua Hot every night for 64 nights on diesel, otherwise I would have been good with 4. My dash fuel gauge is for a 100 gal. tank.

Bob Tiffin (thanks to his sons) had to pay a $10 million dollar lawsuit in 2006...not a good year for Tiffin! Don't remember why. Most manufacturers make handicap coaches!

How do you find club affiliation...SWG Chapter is no more! Therefore I'm not a ND anymore!

Don't sweat the small stuff. Enjoy your trip & have fun!!! -
Joe, your correct...the X450 is up to 1,750 ft. lbs. now couple that with the Allison 10 speed, when it comes out...who needs a 605 hp ?
-
Any way of tracking down the PAT# ? That should tell you who & what.

Fuel Planning for Key West in April 2020
manholt replied to wvujazzman's question in Destinations/Attractions
I was in the Key's 2017, filled up at a Truck Stop on Hwy 1, just past the Turnpike in Homestead. Also in Key Largo,in 2015. There is a Truck Stop in Marathon. They have a Gas Buddy app for cars & trucks. -
Nope & I have used it both on Auto and Coach!
-
I got mine at Home Depot, 1", not HD so it's lite.

I had one of those & only problem was preventing seal from leaking as it got older.

Agree! Don't know if Tiffin ever had a basement AC. Several brands have both heat pump or heat strip on their roof top AC units...Never heard it being called a furnace before!

Travel to the FMCA Convention: Tucson 2020
manholt replied to tireman9's topic in FMCA Tucson, Arizona, 2020
We'll do the same! -
If it's a Attwood, it runs and heats on gas..only elect involved is to start burning gas. If it's a Aqua Hot, it will run on elect or diesel.

jb, did it come with a manual/install instruction? Is there a pdf file you can download?

How far is it from your house to Atlanta?

Factor. On your original post, you said you would be back on at 1400, that's 2:00 PM to most folk! In 6 of the 7 languages I speak + the Military, they use the 24 hour clock, rather than AM/PM! My first thought was that you where in the Military. Happy New Year
-
A few thoughts. Why would you care, what the current owner want's? If your happy with it, why didn't you buy it? By the time you get your storage ducks in a row, he might sell it to another party! MCI's are quite happy to be outside on Elect...even in snow! Happy New Year!

Just made an appointment for some scratches & body work on mine for Jan. 6.

Ditto that X3. That's why they stay busy!

I think Roland can make out pretty good on this. But $$$ in hand first. Roland, where are you now? I'll check around down here & see what I can find...We are at other house in Three Rivers!
