What ladder do you prefer to keep in your coach?
My 13' ladder isn't long enough for me to climb on the roof. Which thankfully is very seldom, but necessary sometimes.
I have a Werner MT-13 folding extension ladder which takes up quite a bit of room in the basement.
How good are the telescoping ladders like the xtend & climb?
I do need an a-frame or step stool to put up the windshield screens which the Werner worked great for and on the '93 it was tall enough for me to climb on the roof safely.
Thanks!

Many Newells I see have an air duct that runs from the HVAC in the basement through the kitchen cupboards exiting in the overhead vents. My question is what is the tube made of where it is visible above the counter top??
Thx

After a several year hiatus, Detroit Diesel has announced that they are returning to the business of powering motorhomes. They have the DD-13 reworked to meet the 2010 emission standards and will be providing that unit rated at 500 HP for motorhome use. Since Newell has moved on to larger, higher horsepower engines, I doubt that you will see a return to DD for Newell unless a customer specifically requests the DD-13.

What is the operating temperature range for the Allison 6 speed?
I'm using VMSPC and wondering what is normal.

How ofter does one change the hot and cold water hoses on the washer? Chappell

It's time to put new shoes on the coach before sailing for Spearfish. I don't have the option of upgrading to the 315 wide tire so I am going with the one option I know of to get a bigger load margin on the front. That is the Michelin XZU3. 305/75 24.5 LRJ tire. My local tire guy says these are difficult to obtain and will have to ship then from "out west". Two questions for you. Are there 24.5 alternatives that you know of with load range J? And if you have used this tire did you have similar sourcing issues?

Do any of you know whether there are national parks that would accommodate a 45 foot rig?

Hello,
I noticed after we upgraded our tail lights on our coach ( LED lights ) since we did rewired these , now out Tow car with magnetic type lights has only running lights ( no blinkers or stop lights )
I have 4 pin type connector.
my question is, can I just cut the wires open from Coach light cable , it has 4 pin type male plug & one by one connect to the female plug on the tow car's light and trace to get it right?

I am not electric skilled and don't want to burn anything in the coach , but I was thinking that perhaps is how I can match the right wires.
Or , do I have to re wired my car with totally different system.

The way we have had wire the tail light is that all 3 red lights will be on when running and stopping, before I believe it was only two.
Thanks you for any tips you might have.
We want to keep out tow car for long time and perhaps you might have some tips how to wire your car's lights for towing and eliminate the magnetic lights.
We are fultime on the road and i need to fix this problem.

Here's to a happy retirement as you start the next phase of your life.
Gonna be fun!

The aquahot heater in the bathroom was working intermittently. The fan would always blow but sometimes it would blow cold, sometimes hot. I tried tapping on the check valve repeatedly and frequently and it never did work right.
Today I picked up a new relay for a spare. I grounded the terminal for the bathroom heater and the relay clicked open but the pump would not run. I swapped relays and it worked every time. So I used the spare relay and now it is working every time.
Question: are these relays repairable?
