Welcome! #1624 is a 2018 p50. Please tell us a little about yourself and your coach. I presume it has the 600 HP Cummins ISX with the Allison 6 speed transmission and likely is a quad slide with a bath and a half. Does your coach have the electric entry door or the air operated entry door?

Thank you for the warm welcome. As I mentioned we are for sure new to the Newell world and to be honest, this is our first time ever participating in a forum. Reading all the technical and mechanical threads we can we are going to need this forum. Michael you are right the coach is a p50 with double bunks and double baths.
I am writing on my phone and everything is very small - so as soon as I can figure out how to upload a picture I will. I believe you are right with the engine size and transmission and the door seems to close pneumatically.
Kathy and I am from SA and we came to the US in 1998 offered greencards so she can treat the baby boomers as a physical therapist. We started our own small business in 2003 where we provide H2A foreign labor for farmers all over the midwest.
So we have been traveling most summers to our clients and have bought our first small 19ft camper in 2001 - the start of the RV life.
We slowly upgraded over the years first to a Palomino 26ft ( also with bunk beds) in 2004 then in 2014 to a Keystone Fuzion fifth wheel. Last year the Class A Diesel bug bit and we purchased a Forest River 38c Legacy. ( also two bath and bunks to have the teenagers and girlfriend come along).
We trust we will keep their attention and travel far and wide seeing many beautiful places in this wonderful country that has bestowed so many blessings upon us and meet many more fantastic people. Hopefully meet some of you in person over the coming years.
