    1991 Ford E250 Coachman Generator Fuel Issues

    I have a 1991 Ford E250 coachman with an Onan generator. The gas line for this is hooked up to the main gas line going to the engine (not the tank). The van has two tanks.

    We've made an offer on a 2018 Thor Miramar. Seems like a good deal... Unit was purchased in the northeast, driven to Florida for the winter and not used much at all... only 2100 miles on the odo! We are just wondering if anyone out there has owned this model and what kind of "issues" might we...

    Tire Blow-out? Hit the Gas!

    Many of the more experienced RV'ers probably already knew this but hitting the gas of your truck or coach immediately after a blow-out never occurred to me to maintain control. Here's a video (somewhat dated) but still probably true that illustrates this strategy...

    Ram gasser 6.4 Hemi mileage

    Finally had a chance to go through the DW logs on our trip to and from Key West Florida. Our 2016 Ram 2500 6.4 gas Hemi with 3.73 rear end did 9.23 mpg on the way down to Florida with no wind issues any of the four days. The four day trip home was a different beast with the NW wind challenging...

    How do late model A Frames do with the gas struts?

    We traded in our 2016 FR a frame after we had it for a couple of years. Not the only reason, but we were quite disgruntled with Forest Rivers reaction to the issues with burning up the roof actuators (we were on our fourth in a year). Our purchased extended warranty was about to run out when...

    Class C gasser bunk model ideas

    Someone I know is looking to retire this summer and to purchase (likely) a Class C gasser bunk model. I'm helping to do some research and have found a few in the 31-32' range, but are there many in the 25-28' range? Thanks in advance for any ideas,

    For those of you who have the "Pay With GasBuddy card", I was wandering what you thought of it? Is it a good deal? Or not worth it? Any problems from using it?

    Diesel to Gas

    I am very familiar with the towing characteristics of a diesel. I'm a ram guy and I'm thinking on a newer tow vehicle. I'm looking at used trucks and you can get a LOT more truck for your money in a gas job. Our trailer is 34ft and has a GVWR of 9200lbs. Does anybody tow with a Ram Hemi? If so...

    Gasoline in MB diesel.

    There is no greater fear than accidentally putting gasoline in a diesel engine. Even the reverse does not do the kind of damage that gasoline will do to the high pressure pump of a MB Sprinter. On our recent trip to Florida, we found ourselves in the middle of no where and getting low on fuel...

    Will very likely trade the 2007 F-150 with 200,000 miles for a F-250 this summer. Looking at 2 engine/tranny options: The standard 6.2L with the 6 speed transmission The optional new 7.3L with the 10 speed transmission for $2000 more. That 10 speed transmission interests me. Wondering what...
