I got these from the Las Angeles Times Website. It might be nice to comunicate with some of the principles....Bill R. CALIFORNIA Can He Maneuver That Big Rig in Court? An Orange man's whopper RV is so huge it's been classified as a commercial vehicle by the DMV, forcing weigh-station stops. He...

F.Y.I. My air pressure took forever to get pumped up to less pressure that normal. I found air coming out of the governer (D2 governor from Volvo $17.oo) mounted on top of the compressor. I changed it and no improvement. The old one had brown oily junk in it. Found air coming out of the bottom...

I got a lot of mud and road junk on the front of my 5th wheel, so I did fender research. I found a very good website - fleetengineers.com Under special deals there are plastic fenders for $30 each (returns or slight defects). Mounting straps are $42.64. You put them where ever you want on the...

Chris, My experience in Ca. is that it can't be done by telephone and is not easy in person. It depends of who you talk to, at what office, and what mood that person is in that day. I had to identify sections of the Ca Vehicle Code that supported my case. I had to try to convince that person to...

My 2 cents: Just started pulling my Alpha. Made two trips to the Colorado River From Riverside,Ca. This outfit goes down the the road like a dream. It's hard to believe how smooth the ride is. Believe it or not, the 610 hardly knows the trailer is there. When the commercial trucks pile up in the...

My wife wants a "jacknife" bed in the cab. This would allow passengers a comfortable seat and seat belts, and a bed. In fact she has bought one she liked while I was gone to Arizona to pick up aluminum wheels and and air seat from a "parts" Volvo. Thinking out of the box (cab), it shouldn't be...

If you are thinking about a class 8 truck and are not quite sure about it's systems & characteristics or driving differences, I have a book to recommend: Bumper To Bumper, The Complete Guide to Tractor-Trailer Operations by Mike Byrnes and Associates, 2025 North Third Street, Suite 155, Phoenix...

Hey Joe, no one ever jumped into a class 8 truck faster than I did. My mind was boggled by the fantastic beauty of the red Volvo 610, that Larry had put up for sale. I was excited at the prospect of driving this big thing around. The biggest I had ever driven was a 3/4t pickup. I had purchased a...

You know, I had this premonition.....If it looks like a truck/ has a big truck part, they are accustomed to seeing a TRUCK. That's why I considered taking off the 5th wheel temporarily for the registration process. A bed type platform for water skis etc. would add to the non-truck desired image...

My 1999 Volvo 610 is now - Officially, a CALIFORNIA motorhome. It did take two hours. It appeared straightforward to me. A Volvo registered as a motorhome in another state comes into California. The two states have full faith and credit...(supposed to trust each other) , but the hang-up was that...

Larry and I are going to meet in Phoenix, Az this weekend. At that time I will buy the 99 Volvo 610 and drive it back to So Cal. I have learned sooo much about class 8 conversions in the last few weeks! Larry has been GREAT! If your ever going to buy a truck you haven't seen from a guy you...
