The refrigerator evaporator collects an unbelievable amount of dust bunnies in just a year. The Lint Lizard is the best tool I have found to address the problem. I had to tape on a smaller hose to get in between the coils. Don't forget to run it down behind your dryer lint screen too.

Here is a new Prevost convertor who is putting out a 2 slide coach for just under $1.5M. That is below Newell's current price point on a 4 slide coach. Probably below Newell's current price point if you ordered a 2 slide.

I have not seen the coach in person. I'm only posting this to show that there is people willing to compete out there.

Had to spend some time under the coach today running wires. What is the small radiator(?) or heat exchanger mounted on the frame in front of the differential?
It has an electric fan mounted on the front.
Transmission cooler?

Well I just found something else to add to my list of things to check while under the coach. The base plate the front shocks are attached to has four 3/4" bolts holding to plate to the suspension. These four bolts were loose and they were loose on both sides. Why all eight were loose is beyond me. I have been hearing a rattle going through small towns, but couldn't tell exactly where it was coming from, either inside or outside. I hope I've found it and will know on my next trip. I will check this each time I grease the chassis.

This one has been offered b-4 seems the price has dropped.

Nice one...

We are headed to Stockton, CA over the weekend and then down to Morro Bay, CA.
Anyone near them?

Gang,

Since I have had my coach, I have been on a quest to stop rattles. I have found and silenced many. Most have been caused by wood-on-wood trim pieces, unsecured cables, and the plastic pieces that were secured with worn-out velcro.

I am down to a hard to diagnose rattle. It seems as if it is inside the side wall right behind the drivers window. I can put my hand on the wall and can feel the rattle through the wall. If I touch the slide wall, I cannot feel the rattle....just in the coach wall.

So my question is...has anyone been into the wall right behind the drivers window? I am making a guess that it is a channel that wires are run in to get to the number 1 slide. Since I have found tons of cables with no tie downs routed in open voids....I am thinking the same thing here.

Suggestions about how to go about figuring this out? I have two ideas...
1) drill a hole in the wall and see if it is filled with foam and if not, spray some expandable foam into the void. 2) drill a larger hole in the wall and drop a video cam and see whats going on.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Cheers,
bill

My list needs filling with more Newell Friends !!!

This Rally is worth every cent of the Enormous Fee* that we are charged and encourage anyone who has not hung out with this crowd to take advantage of this once a year, now sacred tradition ....

Saw this over on Escapees. All America Direct is going out of business on 2-25-14. I emailed Dish to see if they will offer another DNS option.
I may have to switch to Direct TV. We tried the locals from Dish before and it's a pain to call each time we move.
Couple questions about Direct TV, we have a single LNB in-motion satellite so how many different satellites does Direct use for their programming?
Dish uses 3 for all SD & HD.
