rayin Report post Posted June 20 (edited) So, your thread about the starter seized is wrong? You might want to have it deleted. My MH had been parked in a barn for 8 yrs, New batteries was the main issue too. It is a 2000 and had 21,000 on the odometer. Edited June 20 by rayin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rayin Report post Posted July 12 Man that looks great! Those years were the heyday of well-built luxury MH's; very few electronics to go bad either. About the only thing that cannot be upgraded to modern stuff is electronics that control everything. I had a friend that took his 1978 Bluebird back the factory and had both chassis and coach completely updated and refurbished. In effect he too had a new MH while paying taxes and insurance on a 30 yr old one. As to new tires, look at many different brands; I chose Sailun truck tires, they are constructed like Michelin truck tires but made in Vietnam. Keep up the excellent work.

VanToliver Report post Posted July 18 (edited) I really hate to brag but my 91 Monaco Signature Series Diesel Pusher amazes me every day on the quality and construction of it...Haven't taken a trip just yet but got all the bugs that were in it (mechanical) out since it sat for over 10+ years...Simply Amazing Coach...thanks Edited July 18 by VanToliver Update Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am sure you've already inquired about adjusting your deductible to lower your premium, otherwise you'll just need to start making calls. I use Allstate and have been pleased, but I am certain that is 99% due to my agent being spectacular. I guess therein lies my advice. If you like your agent, I'd be wary about changing. Remember, they are your advocate (or should be), the carrier does not want to pay for anything. I am sure I can get lower rates on everything I have insured, but you can build a good relationship with an agent over a few decades that can really make a difference when you need your insurance to come through.
