RE: 83 and have hung up the keys

It is sad to have to give it up but sometimes there is no choice. We are 78 and have been camping and RVing all of our married life. My wifes health has caused us to quit traveling. We still have the MH but have only used it for 3 days the last 2 years at a family reunion at a county park about 40 miles from our home. I sure miss going to Texas for a bit in winter and to Montana or Colorado in the summer! The Winnebago is a 2001 with about 30k miles on it so it is not real valuable and I haven't tried to sell it. I just can't get myself to let go of it. :(

RE: Parking brake will not disengage

Yes if it is a Work Horse P32 chassis, it has auto park. Check the oil in the Plastic oil tank in the steel box that is usually mounted underneath the coach on the passenger side behind the transmission. There is a place you can see the level and a black plastic cap to where you fill it. If it is out of oil fill it with automatic transmission oil. I carry a spare rotten green switch as they can cause trouble. If you want more information google "old used bear" he specializes in rebuilding auto park units and has a lot of info about them. Good Luck with your problem!

RE: Roadside Assistance

We had Good Sam towing for years. They towed us from Bad lands S.D. to Rapid City about 70 miles with no charge (31' Class A MH). The dealer they towed us to thought they had fixed the problem. Two days later the problem re-occurred near Kalispell, Mt. and they towed us to a camp ground on Sunday evening, then the next day they towed us to a Dealer who fixed the problem. But, when I called for for help that second time they said they would arrange the tow but I would have to pay as it was a pre-existing condition. I pointed out that they had towed us to a dealer who failed to fix the problem. They said I would have to pay but that I could appeal that decision. I did so when I got home an they paid in full! I have been very happy with Good Sam ERS, unfortunately because of age and health we can no longer use the Motor Home so I let let it expire but if we could still travel I would not leave home without it.
