NICE!! Great idea!

Rayin, that is not your serial number, that is the engine family in which yours was made.

Does the transport company use your bed and toilet while in transit?

Interesting, My ISL isn't affected. Something must have changed from your build to mine. My engine was built in 2001.

We have a few on order. If they prove themselves I’ll let you know.

I spoke too soon. Drove home from work in white out conditions, funny part there was no mention it on the news today. It didn’t stick to the roads, I am thankful for that!

Please keep that stuff up there! We've got cold and gray sky's, that bad enough!

The ISX was discontinued. The replacement is the Cummins X15. Supposedly this is bullet proof with its designs. Time will tell.... https://www.cummins.com/engines/x15-performance-series-2017

I called them when we were shopping for a refrigerator also. All I got was "it run on house current only" . I made my way up their tech department and everyone was stumped. I gave up and bought a GE that I saw in a Fleetwood product at an RV show. GE told me Modified Sine wave inverter is fine as there are NO delicate electronics in that particular model. Its the computer circuits that usually will not run on MSW.

You most likely will not notice excess exhaust noise due to the Diesel Particulate Filter, in a sense you exhaust is clogged all the time thus reducing exhaust output noise. YUP, you are correct! Monaco in our years ONLY opted for Compression brakes on the ISL-400 and larger on their higher end coaches. The Windsor had an exhaust brake standard with an option for compression brake. Believe it or not on a Commercial vehicle illuminating the brake lamps with an engine brake is an option and its an option you wont see often, RV's it appears to be standard. It is certainly programmable should someone want it turned off if the engine is electronic.

. We watched a guy get a running start over a covered bridge right next to the campground in a class C. He made it out the other side and gut stuck partially through (You could hear him floor it and it was bogging down), backed up and rammed his way out. We all laughed, crying laugh's could be heard on that side of the campground. My friend that is a truck driver didn't find it amusing, he was the only one

That’s my goal as well! The turkey was barely touched, I am getting closer!

Rudi, let it shift on its own. The only thing I do is monitor engine RPM’s, if they climb too high I step on the brake to keep it in a safe range (Stab brake technique). Sometimes it gets a bit too close to redline for my likings.

Wayne, that’s the model I have PTG. Carl, it never functioned right from day one. After arguing with their tech support I gave up. I saw a video on YouTube how to fix a Traeger, install a controller from a RECTEC. That got me thinking and when I took it apart I found the problem, defective controller. I was able to fix it (still no help from their customer support) replaced the improperly installed temp probe and it works now EXCEPT on the smoke setting, I can live with that. Wayne, I cooked a steak Smokey once, my one kid yelled at me , I thought it was good!

I sincerely hope not, they are only close when you zoom google out really far

Bill Eww! I used a “competition blend” not impressed with the flavor profile. I’ll switch back to fruit wood for poultry and hickory or mesquite for red meat. Hickory gives poultry a bacon type flavor which is delicious also! I had a lot of problems with my Traeger, their customer support was terrible, I ended up modifying it and it worked! The only function that doesn’t work properly is the “smoke” setting. That’s supposed to be a low temp creating lots of smoke, it can hit 500 degrees on smoke! I just use 180 or 200, that works and I place a smoke tube in the cooking area. We keep the Traeger in the coach basement.

RECTEC https://www.rectecgrills.com/

I have a brisket in the new smoker (put it in last night at 9:30 PM) Turkey breast going on shortly.

I can relate, today will shoot mine up over the top. One day isn’t going to kill any long term goals.

Happy Thanksgiving! What is everyone eating/cooking??

Speck, what engine do you have, ISB or ISC? One runs the lift pump nonstop the other doesn’t. Not to beat this but as Brett mentioned start with filters. Those could certainly cause low fuel pressure fault codes.

Probably NONE. As bill mentioned it’s a crap shoot if the tower can handle most coaches let alone a 240vac car plugged into the tower with a RV. My guess is campgrounds would install charging stations in the overflow parking for electric cars.....someday.....maybe. You can bet there will be an up charge for that service especially when most charge for bingo.

We have a couple of electric trucks at work. The regenerative braking is their saving grace for their 60-70 mile trip (that’s all you get between charges). Neat technology that I am sure will someday blossom into much more. Interesting enough the environmental impact the battery has is scary should it need disposed of. However they claim it COULD outlast the truck (I guess they are not banking on defective batteries). We did ask should it die and need charged in route could we tow it with the rear wheels on the ground to recharge it, the answer was only if you want a devastating fire. Not the answer I was expecting.

What do you have for a toad and more importantly, does your toad need the steering wheel unlocked prior to departing?

Ditto, I was beginning to feel left out . I also do not have have outlets on the exterior, they are in the bays with a hatch below them to pull wires up from outside.
