After almost a month of tinkering and getting to know the coach we were finally able to hit the road for a day adventure, with a bit of anxiousness we headed out. The biggest challenge of the day ended up being getting in and out of the driveway at the house, but with the assistance of my trusty spotter, it wasn't to bad. The coach handled well, especially after getting new tires. I thought I had a tire with a separated tread, but it turns out the drive tires had a matching set of flat spots on them. We didn't venture far today, that will come soon enough as we plan a memorial weekend trip. Thanks for all the support as I fumble through learning about the coach.

There is an override switch on the dash. What am i overriding??
Thanks for the help.

For all the race fans, we mourn the loss of a racing great, Jim McElreath. He was the 1962 Indianapolis 500 Rookie of the Year and raced in 15 Indy 500's. He died in his sleep at his home in Arlington, TX last night. He had been inducted into the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame, the Texas Motorsports Hall of Fame and the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Hall of Fame. Jim was one of only eight surviving drivers who drove a front-engine car in the Indy 500.

Last wee whe. Driving the coach I noticed the air brake pressure gauge on the dash reading higher than in the past, even everything seems to operate fine. I went back and found pictures to show over time.

April 29, 2017 Red needle 128 and white needle 125psi
May 18, 2017 Red needle almost 150 and white needle 145psi
Is this a concern?

After much deliberation and anguish, we have decided that the coach should be sold to take care of some other family financial matters.
I got it last year in June and started a full renovation and upgrade process. Rented a heated building over the winter and just completed the process. Did not even take it out once.....
A lot of what you see in the Photo album is new, upgraded and in first class shape. Had the engine serviced, Jakes adjusted, Injectors adjusted, valves etc.
All new fluids, new tires, new batteries, new slide toppers just mention a few of the items in the 2 page list at the end of the album. Generator serviced, Aquahot serviced, redone front to back,
I have spent $103,000 in upgrades besides the price of the coach. I really thought this will be ours to keep for a long time. I know I will not get all this money back and would like to move it as fast as possible. I will list it on ebay over the weekend for $179k OBO
You guys here, see it first.
129k miles, 2 slides, Det 60 , Bath and a half.

We recently spent our first long weekend in 443. This morning when I went to dump the holding tank it is draining very slow. The dump valve sounds as if it is opening completely but afraid to disconnect hose and have a look see. Anyone ever have a similar issue? Could it be a build up in bottom of tank?
Should I add some kind of cleaner to tank and try again?
