  1. On our previous coach with HWH, the adjustment was simply about a 6”dia plate with three probes. By adjusting the screws near the probes more or less the jacks could be fine tuned. It is easier if two people work together. One to adjust and the other to extend/retract and read a level. I think it took about 10 minutes.
  2. Our resort is in Arizona. We winter there and do so for all the amenities.
  3. Our resort checks the Vin # or registration to see which is the newest.
  4. Many Campgrounds and/or RV Resorts have this rule. Ours does, but once you buy a lot with a less than 10 year old RV, you are grandfathered in as long as maintained in like new condition.
  5. BillyBarks, I think you have made the most sense over the recent posts in that not one plan is right for everyone. If it isn’t don’t get it. If it does then buy it.
  6. Chris: We appreciate your comments to clarify the issues. Thank you.
  7. So do Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Red Cross, United Way, Goodwill, churches.... and we could go on and on.
  8. I think it was 2008, but I have deleted all that information from my computer. So I cannot verify.
  9. Smithy is correct. The statistics I referred to was the information given to me as the basis when we quoted 10 different providers and requested RFQ from about 50 providers. When we needed to find another provider, the change in age increase was given to me.
  10. Chris who? And why was my name included in your statement?
  11. I checked tire this morning at 33 degrees, 107 psi. After driving for about 4 hours at 56 degrees, all tires 120-122 psi. Went into rain outside temp 48, all tires 116-118 psi. I have never seen above 122 psi in 90,000 miles. The above seems to be normal.
  12. No, it is not easy because the Governing Board is the highest authority in FMCA. The Governing Board directed that the issue be placed before the membership; therefore, the vote is in process and will be done.
  13. The Governing documents rate in order: Articles of Incorporation, Constitution, Bylaws, and policy and procedures in the Member and Volunter Handbook. The articles state the legal identity in the state of Ohio. The Constitution states who we are as an organization. The Bylaws state what we do. The P&P’s state how we do it.
  14. From the membership it does take 20 different member numbers not people to start the process. If I remember correctly that petition must be in before January 1st before the next Governing Board meeting where it is to be considered. The Governing Board can reject, refer back to Committee or send it on to the membership to be voted upon. Only the Governing Board can reverse their decision; therefore, this ballot cannot be stopped without a special called Governing Board meeting. If you are wanting something different than the current proposal, then the vote must put down the proposed change. A new proposal could then be created for Governing Board consideration in July, 2018.
  15. FMCA provided the data to me, but that was before the computer conversion.
  16. See if the light switch has either headlights or parking lights on.
  17. At Chandler the VAS rep did the seminar on FMCA Roadside Assistance. He stated that they until a few years ago supplied Coach Net and several others. I had Coach Net during the time that VAS was the real service company. When Coach Net increased their price, I went looking elsewhere. You will probably find more on Safe Ride. It’s like easurance (spelling) that is owned by Allstate.
  18. When I chaired the first Committee to select the provider for FMCASSIST the average age of our membership was 66 years + or - 2 months based on gender. Seven years later, the average age was 71 with the same 2 months except the gender had switch as which was younger or older. Statically, any insurance company will tell you the older the group insured, the greater the claims. As more of our members become aware that this insurance is provided and get older, more claims are made. We still have members that still don’t know we have this insurance or know the procedure to activate the service. Also, cost of the services has increased. Early years the average repatriation cost was $18,000. The last I heard, the cost had increased to $24,000 and that was a few years ago.
  19. Yes, it should be recreational. I would think that would be a clerical change.
  20. Why wouldn’t you sign up for FMCA Roadside Assist? Right now it is $109 per year. If you can wait until November 1st there is to be a price reduction. You can sign up now and cancel the policy and sign up for the new policy at the lower price. VAS is the parent company of SafeRide Motor Club providing the insurance. Until a few years ago they were the provider of Coach Net. My understanding is that the are the largest provider, but branded under many different insurance companies and clubs or associations.
  21. Lanerd: Where did you see the ad?
  22. We had a 32 ft Class A that we drove all around Branson, MO without a towed. The traffic was very heavy, other drivers were very friendly and let us make turns wherever we needed.

    Tire Air Pumps

    I don’t think we were discussing the air dryer for the brakes and suspension. It was what compressor to use or can onboard compressor work to top off the tires. Even though my coach does have air brakes with a dryer, the pressure required to top off a tire that has 100 psi to get it to 110 psi would be hard pressed for the onboard compressor. That is why I will continue to use my Porter Cable.

    Tire Air Pumps

    If that is a concern for your location, an air dryer is easy to add.
