    Jim,

    You have to turn the key to unlock the steering wheel so the front tires can turn as you make turns. What I always did with my Taurus was turn key clockwise and put transmission in neutral and then turn key counter clockwise until it stopped. This unlocked the steering and key was in correct position. You have a couple of options with the battery. You can run a hot wire from the coach to the car battery which will keep the battery charged or you can add a battery quick disconnect to the battery. For a quick solution so you can continue your trip I would disconnect the negative battery cable for now.

    1,849. Wow, that's a long way from the nearly 8,000 coaches in Brunswick, ME (2000?) or the 6,000 coach counts in Perry, GA. The times, they are a changing'.

    I have been thinking about this since I seen these numbers and just maybe it is time for FMCA's executive board to consider discontinuing the national conventions and combining some of the area conventions to eliminate some of the expenses such as the travel expenses of the executive board members and area rally expenses.

    What does everyone think about FMCA posting what goes on at the National Directors meetings on the web site just for FMCA members only to view. I know there are many FMCA members that do not belong to Chapters and many Chapters National directors do not make the meetings and personally I think posting the Business meeting minutes on the web would be most beneficial.

    After reading this thread we are taking a full on approach at training all stores about this program. We are making this a top priority.

    Lynsay, thanks for coming to this forum and commenting about these problems.

    The above quote is your biggest problem, as I had said in my e-mail to your customer service department.

    Again, thanks.

    The following is a fantastic idea. FMCA has had conventions in many of the states that this suggestion pertains too.

    "FMCA already has enough issues finding convention locations." This statement is wrong wrong wrong.

    Bill Gunther, Tennessee Travelers chapter, moved that Governing Board meetings that will have elections of

    national officers be held at a location east of the Rocky Mountains and west of the Appalachian Mountains.

    The motion was seconded.

    Governing Board members spoke for and against the issue. It was noted that this would provide a greater

    opportunity for a more even representation of the membership at the meeting; equalize the monetary expenses for

    members of both coasts; the summer conventions would be better attended; host responsibilities could be split; a

    central location would be better than going from one coast to another; 2013 would be a viable time to go to one

    convention per year because of no contractual conflicts; the Convention Committee has held three sessions in

    Redmond, and are already discussing this issue; the stipulation would only apply to an election-year convention; it

    was noted that there are only five states with unrestricted dealer laws; and FMCA already has enough issues finding

    convention locations.
