Don, coach year 2007 and older, you will bypass emissions systems. Chassis produced in 2007 (not the coach as a complete unit, chassis are usually built 1 year prior) will most likely be equipped with a Diesel Particulate Filter, Catalyst and EGR system.

Meatballs. Mexican chicken, pre cooked and vac sealed. We can pull over and whip together tacos or an Italian dish pretty fast.
Haven't done the slow cooker while in motion yet. -
When you read the regulations, one common word popped up COMMERCIAL. Since RV’s do not fall into that category it’s really a moot point. Now if an axle is physically overloaded, that’s a safety issue! Our last coach fell into that category. I drove that like it was stolen for 7 years. All I did was add air bags to all 4 corners and went with a heavier tire load range. Not too much else you can do but enjoy it.

Guessing, they routed the brake lines back to those duallies.

Can someone help, what type RV is this?

Ditto! Seeking another Jeep soon, that will be set up the same way.

Considering the lift and center of gravity is there a chance of Death Wobble with this vehicle. I've been told as long as the tow bar connects level to the toad there shouldn't be a problem. True?
Only if the alignment is out on the Jeep, I.e. lifted and the Caster was not set afterwards. Every Jeep Wrangler we have towed was lifted and not one ever had a death wobble on its own or while in tow. Just make sure your tow bar is level, but that is no different with a Wrangler or any other vehicle.

Forgot about that one, us too!!! That and cleaning up after your pet.
I don’t mind the children as long as they are well behaved and follow the rules and decent etiquette.
When ours were little, As soon as they could read we would make them read the rules. They weren’t allowed to roam freely either. I never wanted to be “that family” with disrespectful kids. When they got older and were allowed to go to activities by themselves many times they would come back because others were out of hand and they didn’t want to be associated with that crowd.
Goes back to, it’s all how you raise them. -
Unfortunately this has become “normal etiquette”. Cutting through sites, the list goes on and on. Seems to get worse with the location. We were in Myrtle beach a few years ago, they were turfing campsites with golf carts, sites with campers parked while people were on the beach, driving across peoples patio mats at a high rate of speed. Add alcohol and it gets much worse! Security watched it and shrugged it off.
Sadly its a new world we live in. -
You will need to scan the ECM for codes to determine why it’s on. Is the low coolant sensor reconnected, did you disconnect anything else for access?
Monaco (Cummins recommended) uses two engine lights for faults. One lights up WARNING the other Check engine. Warning is a fault with lower concern that won’t strand you. Check engine, may the lord watch over your wallet

navyjoe, any photos with measurements?

Go tankless for that feeling. My DW loves our tankless, cant get her out of the shower becomes the issue...

tammeling, welcome to the FMCA Forums!
We use a lot of how water, if I had adequate space behind the heater I would upgrade. I had to enlarge an opening on our last coach to accommodate a tankless water heater. Opening the hole was easy, rerouting all of the wires and plumbing behind it so it would fit was not terrible, but took a little more time than expected.

Other than the years, he wants my coach

Few things with a Sprinter to consider. The weight of the house will affect that rating. If the “frame” was extended after the axle. The MB Sprinter doesn’t have a full frame. They advertise it but it’s literally nothing more that boxed in sheet metal, not what you think when you say “full frame”. Short wheel base can get squirly with a large vehicle behind you. Best bet, call the RV manufacturer. They need to be the one rating it.

Agreed. NOW, if it was connected and properly installed during assembly is entirely different. I would take it to a dealer and have it looked at. It might have a plug installed or not connected properly.

Sorry for your loss!
In the current market, the demand is much higher than the supply. I would put it on consignment as mentioned above. Now comes the tricky part, do you fly out and drive it back or pay a service to pick it up....decisions.... hopefully you can get some photos ahead and send to a dealer to get the ball rolling. I'd even consider calling those dealer options above, they might know how to get it and you wont have to touch it. I would imagine this isn't their first rodeo with respects to a situation like this.

We have a manual transfer switch wired into the house. You could install an outlet in the coach at the transfer switch and run a heavy cord between the two. We do that now but with a stand-alone generator

That really depends on a lot of different configurations if needed or not.
Ours NO and never needed.
