    Great look at a M2 Motorhome

    I have scoured the internet for pictures of M2 Motorhomes and believe me there are very few, and most are not very good shots. Finally found a good one.

    Coach in the Making Two - Graphics

    Dude I am more than dieing to get this project started. The craziest thing is the 3 month wait to just to get this going. I feel so detached from all of the planning and ground work we did over 3 months ago. Well we are down to 2 weeks and as soon as I get any information I will start...

    Class 8 tandem to single axles justification

    You'll save a little on the turnpike. Make sure your gonna stay under 20,000 on that rear, I know Ohio has scales as you enter toll booths. I don't think they will mess with ya if your a private coach and not to far over. It will definitely ride nice, the closer your to the max the better...

    How do you access the new chat rooms??????

    Click on the "Go" button, chat rooms are at the bottom. You should get a popup window, if it stays blank. Go back to "Go" button then to "My Space" --> "Preferences" --> select either html or java which ever is not checked. Bill

    Towing question. Please Help!!!!

    They use a 2 5/16" ball with 2 1/8" shank(I think) anyway it is bigger than a standard 2" ball. So you need to get a 2" ball and a bushing for the hole in that hitch. I had to scramble around Elkhart when I picked up my conversion to pull the car hauler back home which had a 2" hitch. Hope...

    Sorry I have not been posting.

    Actually, I try to avoid the site all together if at all possible, except to do updates on various pages of the site. Having to wait until mid-February to just start my new conversion is just killing me, and then the thought of not getting this thing done until mid to late April is even worse...

    Alternatives to the M2

    I can confirm the long wait on the M2. I still have another 7 weeks until I get mine just to start the 6 week build process. My truck was ordered on 11/19/04. From what I understand the leadtime on the M2 is only getting longer, so if your planning a conversion to arrive before the end of the...

    My 95 FLD had a very very heavy pedal, took a few trips to get use to it, but like anything you get use to it and it was no problem. Bill

    Coach in the Making Two - Graphics

    No pic's until after Feb 15. FL is so backed up on the M2 that it's a 8 week plus lead-time. No pellet stove for me I am propane guy. Heat my house, RV & shop with it and my whole house generator is powered by it. It's cheap, clean and efficient. Geof do you really want to lug around a...

    Facing Slideouts on a Class 8

    I think the one thing we need to keep an eye on is road stability. While I was at the RVIA show I found myself in a conversation with Detroit Chassis which builds chassis for the pusher market. They where interested in finding out why truck conversions seem to have more stability than a...

    Coach in the Making Two - Graphics

    Approximately 40'. Not sure if you read some of my other posts, but if you travel alot and plan to get off the beaten path, the shorter the better. I just don't know how alot of these guys are getting around in 40' plus rigs and these huge trailers. I found myself in trouble in a number of...

    Coach in the Making Two - Graphics

    Welcome to the site Mark. The truck does not come off the FL assembly line until 2/14/05. Then Show Hauler gets their hands on it and with any luck we should have a completed conversion towards the end of April. Check with Lonnie he always has some awesome rig being built over there. When we...

    Fresh/Grey/Black Tank Volumes

    Travis - The 75 black will be plenty, I had 47 grey in the last conversion (thought it was more) and that was good for 2 days 2 people. We bumped up to 94 on the new one so I am hoping a weekend for 2 adults 2 kids will work with that. As Bob mentioned the conversion companies are prety weak...

    How to rate quality of builders

    Glamis - First, what are you looking to buy? Motorhome, Garage unit, or Toter? Are you buying off the lot or you going to build custom to your spec's? And last what is important to you? Is the chassis and frame your concern, how about interior fit & finish, exterior construction, ect...

    Meritor Freedom 12-Speed Transmission

    Hey Bob. Have you driven the 6 Speed Allison Auto in one of these? And if so how smooth is it over the Meritor? I have driven the Eaton 10 speed Autoshift and it was not much smoother than me shifting my manual 10 speed (although it was much easier as far as not having to move the lever) The...
