Air Force One SMI
#1

We have an appointment to have Air Force one installed in our tow vehicle. Has anyone been to their facility in Newburgh Indiana? How us the parking for overnight?

Doug,

I was there a year ago. It is surprising small building and lot. There is only one driveway that you pull into. When they are finished you have to back out into the street. I did not notice any hook ups.

I got there early AM and left at closing. We dry camped behind a Denny's with dozens of truckers north of SMI on the interstate.

That being said, they are the best at what they do. No shortcuts. As we say in Texas, no brag, just facts.

Doug,
We have Air Force One, had it in our previous coach and Newell transferred it to this one. You will like it although the three little red lights on the back of the toad's mirror when brake is engaged isn't on current toad. Florida said red lights on the front of any vehicle is illegal but these were just tiny bulbs. I would like to get some indicator installed, either wireless in the coach or on the toad that I can see in the camera? What would you recommend?

Gary, I think the three little LED mirror lights work only when the Air Force One is actuated, thus only when being towed. If so, it should not be illegal. I expect SMI will, instead of the mirror light, install a light on the Newell dash to confirm when the tow brakes are activated. Newell usually has several unused wires running from the back to the front of the coach. I certainly like my Air Force One.
