RE: Keeping a charge on AGM batteries

Call who ever makes the controller for the batteries and be sure it is set up for AGMs, correct number of batteries, amp hours, charge rate, etc. Once they are set correctly, you can leave the AGMs plugged in as long as you want.

RE: Good time to buy class a diesel?

Good time to buy a DP....used is better, don't get the huge depreciation lost on the new ones....which are way over priced.

RE: Oil for generator

Use what ever you use in the engine....15W40 Rotella for me on diesel number four.

RE: Antifreeze no longer pink

Color of coolant is irrelevant. There are too many variables....for gas engines, for diesel engines, standard, extended life, probably more, and they don't mix well.

RE: Newmar response

My experience is that the tech side of the house will not call back. You have to call them and wait in line until they get to you. They all like to say, "call, leave us a message and we will call you back."

RE: Class A Tire Recommendation

Like several others, I replaced my OEM Michelins at five and a half years....will never buy them again. I have Continentals on the front and Toyos on the rear. Both were cheaper and will last longer.

RE: Long trips

One reason we switched to a Class A from a 5th wheel was that no how nice the truck and 5th wheel, you're still riding in a truck. You can't do anything but ride. In the class A you can get to the refrig, bathroom, bedroom, closet, pantry and any where else you want. Plus the weather is irrelevant....if it's pouring rain you can still get what you want without getting out of the MH.

RE: How important is tire size to your selection?

Get the coach you want, the appropriate tires will be on it. If you want 22.5s that means you'll get a larger coach than one with 19.5s.

RE: Side mounted cameras

Our coach came with side cameras. We don't use them....in the habit of using side mirrors on our regular vehicles so we do the same thing in the MH. We have triple lenses which is nice.

RE: Freightliner customer service

The Freightliner dealers in my area don't make appointments. So I call the day prior to see if they will be busy...."no, bring it out." So I did, fuel filter change, got there at 8 AM left at 4:45. Happens routinely, and they don't seem to care.

RE: New to me HR Nav 40

ISM/Allison is a good combination. Should be plenty of power.

RE: Advantages of diesel pushers

A DP is like a Ford Econoline Van, only larger. You get used to whatever you drive after a few hours of seat time....Dennis
That's a joke, right? Any Econoline van type vehicle is loud, uncomfortable, under powered, bad seats, noisy, no amenities, and ugly. My DP is the opposite in all areas noted above. Other than being a little thirsty, a DP is the way to go.

RE: New to RV’ing....and might not last

Call REV Group. They can email you some manuals. The ones they don't have call those companies....Aqua Hot, Onan, Thetford, Carefree, etc and ask for their manuals.

RE: Synthetic Trans Fluid

According to the chemist who helped develop transynd, if you have it tested every year and it comes back good, it's good for ever.

RE: Class A Roadside Assistance

It's really a toss up. Most ERS providers use the same companies to help you. Plus, it seems all have raised their rates. I had GS for years, they did fine, but nearly doubled their rates when it was time to renew. I caught FMCA during a sale, and got them for three years.

RE: New Ford Chassis

Not enough of a change to be excited about!
Let’s see independent front suspension, and an air ride option.
That would be a HUGE cost increase ! One of the reasons that the F53 sells well is it low cost compared to other manufacturers.
(Do ANY Class A's actually have independent front suspension ?)
Most of the larger Class A RVs have IFS.

RE: RV Tires

....I recently moved from Michelin to Toyo...
I did that last summer. Michelins are over rated and over priced, plus, my dealer said he could not find any 295s.
