Hi All,
One of the top roller bolts that is vulcanized into rubber in the housing broke off below the nut. I will have to buy the whole assembly if that bolt doesn't come out. It is the round door shower. Anyone have a parts source or any fix other than the part replacement which I'm sure is not cheap. I have to hold the door up and lock it in place so it wont fall.....

It was veterans day yesterday so first of all a big thank you for the veterans that have served us. I am honored to be a veteran as well and am proud that our son scott is serving as an officer in the air force.

a while ago, darlene heard that bed and breakfast's were offering free nights to veterans and active duty men and women for veterans day. so darlene asked if i was interested and i said yes. she got us on a waiting list for this wonderful BnB. we never expected to be contacted and told a room was avail if we were interested. well we were in for a treat.

it is a short 120 mile drive (well, for everyone but clarke and forest) but there is a rest stop half way between phoenix and tucson and darlene did ask me if i was going to stop at it.

http://aroseinn.com/ Adobe Rose Inn is the place that we stayed at and that i am writing this post from now. this is such a cool place. (and i have stayed at quite a number of them)

and yes, this is a shameless plug for Marion and Jim Hook, who own and operate the Inn. they are delightful and interesting hosts who treat everyone like family.

thank you to them for allowing us to stay with them for a night.

so, if you are ever in tucson, dont have your coach and need a place to stay, this is it.

I hear breakfast being prepared and I bet it will be fantastic.

tom

We are traveling from KS -TX-NM-AZ to California , its long trip and I noticed our engine battery showing only 12,7 Volts on the digital board & on our dash in analog gauge under 12 V

I checked battery cables and they are super tight , and cables are very clean near the clamps.
When we used Generator at rest stop the levels are 13,8 V
I tested Battery and was 13 + V right at the posts , but that was right after we stopped generator.
So , my questions is while driving is the battery should be around 13+V or under 13 Volts is normal?
Batteries are only in second season and we got them from Newell Also, I regularly check the water levels.
I also check my drive belts and they are tight!

We been on the road now 16 months and drive about every 2 weeks to every month and always battery showed fully charged ar around 13 V while driving!

I have Millenicom service (through Verizon) with a mifi 4620 and yesterday the internet stopped. When I checked it there was a new notification to go to this website to restore my Verizon service, www.vzwlivecellphonedata.url.ph/
which redirected me to a european website selling internet data packages.
My account appeared to be locked until I visited the webpage.
I had to use my phone to visit the webpage. I contacted Millenicom support and they said they are aware of the problem.
Anybody else have this happen?

We just purchased our first class A coach, a 38' Newell Classic.
I have a few maintenance things to take care of before I store it for the winter.
The maiden voyage (besides the 5 hour drive home) is in March.
The whole family is excited.

While Waiting for racing to begin Suzy & I went to the Camping World coach display at the track. We only looked at coaches that were priced from 200K to 400k. It made us feel like we stole our coach! The quality of all the coaches we looked at was poor. The quality of the stuff in the coach was cheap, flimsy & substandard. Lots of flimsy plastic. For example, the showers in the coaches looked like they would shake apart in the first 50 miles. USED NEWELLS ARE WAY UNDERPRICED.

hi all, i am interested in knowing the distance that a passenger side bedroom slide STARTS from the rear of the coach.

i am trying to design a new shop and want to know the closest that the slides are to the rear. if those of you with passenger side bedroom slides could measure from the rear of the coach to the beginning of the slide for me i would really appreciate it. i know there will be differences.

thanks

tom
