hi oh experts. (real and self appointed)

i actually used the aquahot electric side today for the first time. i have always been where it was hot and needed all the aircons before so would just turn on the diesel side.

i was quite surprised that the electric side heated up as quickly as the diesel side did.

but here is my question. how hot should it get on electric? i turned it off when it got to 215 on the tank temp gauge inside. i took an unhurried shower and it was still at 206 when i got out.

same question on the diesel side. what temp should it reach?

thanks

tom

many people ask if the bed can be walked around when the slide is in. my coach has one slide in the bedroom. here are the pictures of the slide in and out.

but....my coach is not typical. it was originally set up as an office lounge in the bedroom area and had a sectional couch on the slide and a full length desk on the opposite wall. i took the desktop and file cab out and the couch out and made a newell style bed.

you can walk around it by pushing hard against the mattress when the slide is in but it is easier to crawl over the bed.

the reason you cant walk around it when the slide is in is twofold.

the first is that i made the bed longer than normal (very close to cal king) because i am a big guy. the second is that the cabinets on the wall are longer and extend into the area that the walking area would be. in addition, there is a 42" tv in a cubby on the wall there. all of that makes it so there is very little room there.

every other newell i have seen with one slide in the bedroom you are able to walk around the bed.

no big deal to us since i made the bed longer and i love the extra cab space and really love the big tv and home theatre i put in there.

but for many, that is essential when you have the rear bath like we do. since there is a 1/2 bath (toilet and sink) in the middle of the coach, it is no issue while traveling.

plenty of room when the slide is out

ya do with what ya got....

[attachment=1231]     [attachment=1231]We made it to Disneyworld, and have made it to our site #1221 in Fort Wilderness with our Rig.
It was tight, but we made it in without running over anything. The Coach and the Toy Hauler are working like a dream. No problems, and everybody is having a good time. Lots of people stop by, and want photos of the set-up, and say it is the first time they have seen anyone here with a set-up like it....
