I have a Headhunter 110V water pump in my coach. It is working fine, but always looking for future replacement as it is 14 years old. The new Headhunter Mach 5 runs about $1,100+ and my pump does not qualify for their 1/2 price program. I found a pump that looks good to me and retails for $448.27. It is close on the dimensions and gpm. Just wanted the Gurus opinion of this pump.

Before any of us rebuild a Detroit we need to look into this (sorry Todd).

This is a vicarious report of a Newell sighting southbound on I-15 near Corona, CA Friday around 2 pm Pacific Time.....my son, Tim, was northbound and saw a Newell that looked exactly like mine, only some guy with a white beard was driving it......he called me shortly thereafter to be sure I wasn't in town......I told him that must be Steve Ward (Prarieschooner), and sure enough it was! He confirmed he was on his way to Menifee.

I just returned from the HWH Service center in Moscow, Iowa. To many "experts" have messed with my system and I just couldn't correct the mess-ups by myself. (besides it is way too cold here in Mi.) I can't say enough about the nice treatment I was given and the fairness of the charges. They certainly know what they are doing and I highly recommend them. You can see they even let me stay in my Newell "penthouse" overnight.

Looks like we will be heading to Yuma soon. How many are there? how about a quick get together?

Hi all, something new!! Entered the coach experiencing the odor similar to hot oil. Investigated below and found one of the house batteries with elevated temperature (around 120F). Disconnected the affected battery from the string. I suspect thermal runaway as the battery is surely dry inside from the odor.
Question is, has anyone experienced an incident such as this?

Above is from the other forum.
Well it lasted just about a year. Started chattering again. I emailed both Kwikee and PPL to see if the replacement gear set and motor assembly will fit. If not I guess I'll buy a new step.
Just heard from Kwikee and they don't make any parts for these old steps. So just ordered a new step from PPL. Should be waiting for me at my sons house when we get back to Thibodaux next week.

We found thsi great RV park right in fron santa catalina mountains in Oro Valley ( just outside Tucson)
What great place with 9000 feet peak looming right in front of your coach. Great hiking ( in the desert ) eqestrian center if you kike horse back riding, park offers great bathrooms/showers , very clean!
the only catch is 2 weeks in and 2 weeks out!
If you like to stay before january or after april , than you can book for month or longer, $25 per night.
Close to Biosphere 2 in Orcale . Oro Valley si more upscale spot with Ritz Carlton and some golf courses.
If you stay here make sure eat at Bubbs Grubbs place , stakes, beef and world class souce!
One more hick up is that park has 50amp/water but no dump, but you can roll after 10 days or so and dump at dump stations, thsi was only one hick up , but for the scenery, quiet and star watching at night makes up for.
Way in the country and still only 2 mile to wallmart, Best Buy and 4 eateries.

We are looking for a place near the Denver airport (or within an hour or 2) to leave our motorhome and truck for a month in mid-May in order to return home for our son's graduation from LSU.
It sounds like the best area would be east of Denver, lower elevations and campgrounds will be open earlier?
Since we are fulltiming we would need to leave it plugged into electricity so that's why we are thinking of a campground unless we can find a storage place with electric.
The weather east of Denver in mid-May should be above freezing at night?
When we fly back to Denver on June 16 we'll head up to Spearfish for the rally.
Any suggestions? Or other areas with an airport with good connections to New Orleans that is within 3-4 days drive to Spearfish, SD?
Thanks!
