Rich, you have brought up a very good point, not to say this manufacture doesn't have a quality issue. With plastic parts inside what to lube it with also comes into question. After reading this there is defiantly something wrong with me . I lube the door hinges, latches in the motorhome and house at least 2 times a year. I cant stand when doors squeak, knobs and deadbolts are hard to turn or you go to close a kitchen cabinet and it will not fully seat. We have saloon doors to the basement staircase at the house, nothing will stop them from squeaking, I am about to toss them in the trash

I have run I81 many times, no issues, Once you are off of I-81 to I-68 I cannot help after that. 81 has a few hills but not horrible. It will also depend on your coach and toad (weight). I have heard the Interstates in WV have steep hills. Perhaps someone else could chime in. I always run with the mind set if its an interstate how bad could it be, so far we have been OK. But we are defiantly not the most experienced.

I use Lexol (can be purchased at most automotive parts stores) My seats look like I got to them to late. Some cracking etc. Not sure if anyone has more experience with a better product. This did a good job of cleaning them up but they do not feel softer to me. Saddle soap I had never thought of. http://www.lexol.com/

I was trying to ascertain if the unit in fact was Navistar Powered or Cummins powered. No engine make was referenced, just the coach make. I am not familiar with the HR/Monaco products in those years, I know they were owned by Navistar back then but that doesn't always mean they didn't offer a Cummins as an option. I do agree with the product they produced being not being dependable. Here is a link from a previous discussion. Few owners on here didn't mind them. The last time I brought up that product I made someone unhappy.

http://www.cabinbright.com/x-factor-fluorescent-tube-replacements/ I installed led these throughout my entire interior. You only need one per fixture (removing both tubes and replace with one LED). photos in this link fantastic company to deal with, great customer service. I met the owner at an RV show a few years ago, nice guy.

Sunny, 45. I think if we had that two days in a row I would have been knocking on your door. Snows all gone! Hopefully it stays that way.

Winegardc, welcome to the Forum! Sorry to hear your list of troublesome problems. The new Diesel engine technology is very advanced with all sorts of electronic components all over them which have been prone to headaches like you have described above. Some engine manufacturers are prone to more headaches than others. You have indicated Monaco built by Navistar is the coach powered by a Maxxforce engine (Navistar) or Cummins?

Carl, thanks for volunteering me. Lol doug, I suspect it's after the hose reel per Rich's answer above.

Puff, snowing, not sticking to the roads or pavement but my lawn has 1" on it. We were considering running for Hilton Head last night. Work on Monday changed that. its supposed to warm up into the 40's tomorrow.

I also got mine from Carid. I bought the ones with the blacked out background and led Halos under them. the Dynasty looks like a BMW light module. I would remove them and Google the part number with bmw in front of it.

Welcome!

Bill thanks for rubbing it in. I awake today singing Frosty the snowman

Kay, I couldn't agree with you more. Still waiting for pictures......

Hey Doug! I heard it when we were camping. It's a howling type of sound when the city water is coming into the hose reel. To supply the coach while someone is inside with a faucet open. It's quite loud at the hose reel wet Bay Area. I was thinking a restriction in the reel, kinked hose? Pump is off and water is not headed into the tank. Anyone else have a hose reel for your hose?

I believe he was trying a separate inverter dedicated to the refrigerator. While is factory installed 2000 watt MSW ran the rest of the coach. The question seems to be why wouldn't a 1000 watt run it? Or better yet why will the stock MSW not work. Shannon, what did the MSW unit do to the refrigerator when plugged into it? Compressor get loud when it turned on?

Haha, I would if I was in Ohio!

I have a set of heavy rubber ones I use. Our last coach only had a driveshaft parking Brake. That worried me if a U-joint failed it was gone. I always chocked that one and this one. Funny a Camping trailer has NO brakes when not connected to a tow vehicle!!!!!! Don't park down hill from one. Or really trust thy neighbor. Call me paranoid I always look around before I set up, I have no problem asking for a different spot if something doesn't look right. Rich good post on a proper air brake pre-trip just to add to it, chock you wheels at full air pressure (engine off) release the parking brake and watch your air pressure gauge, if it drops more than 3 psi in one minute you have a an air leak that needs to be addressed. Do the same with your foot on the brake pedal 2 psi in one minute it needs to be fixed ASAP. I do this prior to each trip, CDL habits.

My TRC has a delay before sending power to the coach also. I use my power pal first then plug the TRC in and connect to the coach. When done I alway flip the breakers off after I go through the interior and shut the AC off. ObedB next time we meet up remind me to tell you the story of a CG I left in GA. Through the bushes cross the creek to the highway in our C. To get out when I got spooked

Not sure why but mine has been working pretty flawless today. I tuned my notifications after Todd fixed them so I could and it's been good on my I phone I pad and Microsoft PC. i am actually impressed how fast the bug fixes have been. happy camper here

Todd, so far I'm impressed, I pay a small fee per year for my membership, in a few days most of the new system glitches have been corrected. We spent 1.5 million a year and a go at work on fleet management software, they still haven't figured it out.

Poor guy is from PA. If he's near ObedB and myself the dealer support around these parts are slim pickings. You fellas from Texas have it made. And your not getting ready for snow tonight. CW is buying up the mom and pop dealers around here and turning them into a Safe haven for ex cons.
