manholt Report post Posted January 26, 2016 FIVE. Your wrong! I'm absolutely ecstatic! $1,392.30 I'm now in a campground, weather is bad, front came in early! Carl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jleamont Report post Posted February 1, 2016 Carl, I have a Girard awning also 22', no separate one for over the entry door. Unfortunately the main awning is all we have and it doesn’t cover the entry door all the way (3/4 of the entry door). I thought about having the Main awning slid back and have another one installed over the door, it looks like it would be expensive for little gain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hermanmullins Report post Posted February 1, 2016 Joe, I just saw large 60" umbrellas on sale at Sam's for $4.95 + tax. This way you can go out the door first (get wet) then open the umbrella so the DW may exit without getting soaked. Cost less and you can score well needed points with her.

Herman Herman, she complains about it every time it rains when she opens the door. Hmmm, maybe umbrella and suction cups to the window on the door? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildebill308 Report post Posted February 1, 2016 You'll be a happy camper until you get the bill! Why would he be unhappy when he gets the bill? They will give you an estimate and it is your choice to proceed or not. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manholt Report post Posted February 1, 2016 Bill. Yes, I did get an estimate. However none off us knew that the front windshield was about to fall out, due to a replacement and bad workmanship. I had no idea that the previous owner had it replaced. We found out when the wind deflector wings was removed. TCC still stuck to the original under $1,500...BLEW MY MIND! That was an extra 2.5 hours and supplies! They will be replacing my Dish Dish with a DirecTV Dish! Also, replacing all my awnings with Zip Dee's! That will be done, prior to the FMCA Reunion in Mass! It shall be interesting to see what that bill will be...Remodeling this coach, inside and out, still beats the price of a new coach! Carl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

five Report post Posted February 2, 2016 Speaking of Prevost, yesterday we saw a Prevost on the shoulder of the road outside a Super 8. Must have been in the motel as the MH was way too out of level to sleep in it. If I had a Prevost...don't think I'd be in a Super 8. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jleamont Report post Posted February 3, 2016 If I had a Prevost I don't think I would sleep in my house. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hermanmullins Report post Posted February 3, 2016 Now FIVE, by staying at Super 8's may be the reason he can afford a Prevost. Herman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manholt Report post Posted February 3, 2016 The choice would be, house or Prevost? Not both! You can get a nice Prevost for under $250K but I would think the overall cost of operation would far exceed my humble coach...don't think they get 6.5 to 7.5 mpg! I would hate to buy 8 off those tires... Carl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
five Report post Posted February 3, 2016 Now FIVE, by staying at Super 8's may be the reason he can afford a Prevost. Herman You could be exactly right...but, if it was my Prevost...my Super 8 days/nights would be history. Carl...for $250k, it would be a pretty old, pre slide, Prevost.

jleamont Report post Posted February 9, 2016 The pre slide ones are under 100k, probably a basket case...but none the less. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
