no mixing - the CHEAP ($1.79 per gallon) fueling station is Buc-ee's in Baytown Texas - really not intended for "trucks" (since they don't offer master/slave pumps like a conventional truck stop). I fill one side/tank, turn the coach around and fill the other side/tank... Buc-ee's are HUGE -...

build it big enough that one day you can put a 14' roll up door on it. our storage bay is 15x50 - w/ 50a connection....If it were 20' wide I would be able to get the slide out all the way.

I've added some more details (as I discovered / cross referenced the trans model number). honestly id love to be able to cruise faster (need to have the cruise control reprogramed to something more than 72mph). I'm happy w/ the mpg but wouldn't mind getting my RPM's down a little lower (so I...

Welcome Chief Mark! Sam - Ill record the video but I don't recall our coach shifting that high (rpm), iirc I shift around 1300, maybe 1500 tops. I'd love to be able to identify what ratios are in the trans. Mark - I consistently see 9.9mpg at 70/72 mph...and I've never seen anything lower...

It would be unusual for the generator to charge the chassis/engine batteries. The house (converter/charger) doesnt (usually) charge the chassis/engine batteries either. when stored I, too, keep a battery tender / maintainer (that can support multiple batteries) on the engine batteries. You...

if I had one id make use of it too...but I don't thing id enjoy driving it on the interstate.

its come along very nicely! can't wait to see the interior pics once things are wrapped up.

on our coach - the engine batteries are isolated (not charged by shore power or the generator). the house batteries are charged (by the engine alternator) going down the road or at idle. the house batteries are charged by 1) the converter charger (on shore power) and 2) the generator...

8.9 at 60/65 isnt anything to brag about....I get that at 72 with plenty of peaks to 78+ certainly headwinds will kill us all.

love these things....but always wonder how practical they are from an RPM (and MPG) perspective on the interstate. love all the LED lights!

no CDL rules like that in Texas....all that is required (but rarely enforced) is the Class B (air brake) endorsement. I've been stopped TWICE (by curious Texas Rangers) who used the lack of a front license plate as their probable cause....and not one word was mentioned about endorsements...

One way to check, put a meter on some 12v circuit of the house....measure the voltage, then start the chassis / engine - if the voltage increases then you know the engine/alternator is charging the house batteries. chase the house batteries positive cables and see if you have one running to an...

Our coach (mbe4000 w/ single alternator) charges the house batteries when the engine is running. If yours doesn't I would be surprised. Further the factory alternated is sufficient to keep up and charge our (3) house batteries. Does your choach have an emergency gen start (battery combine)...

most call for in-frame inspections (or overhaul) by 700k

man thats a bunch of miles...and no mention of an In Frame so that should be factored into the cost. There are five active fault codes (128s004, 128s003, 128s010, 128s009, 136s004).... Per seller - the fault codes are due to the RV conversion. I have a conversion...I don't have any fault...

Probably have one of the Freedom 458s or Freedom SW. need a minimum of 4kw just to keep all that stuff running and even more for surge. the Freedom SW's can be STACKED either in parallel (doubling the wattage) or run in series (for phased voltage). the SW 3012 is 3kw (6kw surged) is about...

I havent & I havent polished any stainless steel either. I've polished my (pickup truck) 50g in bed aluminum fuel tank & I've "touched up" the aluminum wheels on our coach. I have a dewalt grinder that I use - its not gonna last doing this, small cheap grinders motors get hot fast and will...

these guys have the buffing wheels and polishes, and some nice kits as well https://dcsupershinestore.com/collections

beautiful trucks just the same. my only issue w/ 'em is they either don't look well integrated (cab to box) or they end up w/ weird unusable space (sleeper cab)

MOST states have laws to make this tax credit (I refuse to use the term loop-hole) illegal in their state - i.e. "If the vehicle is parked a majority of time in their state that you need register it in their state. Many states even specify if the vehicle is parked in their state or even county...

I don't know how you practice for this but this drivers got skills... Watching This Truck Almost Topple And Then Recover Will Cost You A Pair Of Pants

Hate Maryland! (I used to live/work in DC/Md/Va area). you could always form and LLC in Montana or (one of) the Dakota's...there are law firms that do this for a few 100 bucks. you'll avoid sales tax (since there is now sales tax on vehicles or at least RVs) AND you'll pay one time fee (200...

so did you have to take a bath on it? I'm curious how far off your selling price was from the last asking price? did it really take 2 years to sell it?
