    Fortunately, you have quite a few to choose from. The Motorcoach Resort in Port St. Lucie is a lovely full-featured motorcoach resort. It’s around an hour North of the Expo facilities. They just added a new section and recently updated the clubhouse.

    A half hour South in Jupiter you have the Jupiter Palm Beach Motorcoach Resort and while it’s more of a luxury campground with a clubhouse, pool and pickleball courts, it’s considered brand new and the grounds are immaculate. That puts you within an half hour of the Expo.

    You can go South to the Ft. Lauderdale area and find the Aztec Motorcoach Resort and that will put you around 45 minutes from the Expo. It’s a full featured resort that has a festive environment. Jimbo frequents Aztec and hopefully he’ll chime in and give you the scoop on this resort.

    I plugged in a number of scenarios ranging as low as a couple of thousand miles annually on up and it looks consistent in using 4 years as the change interval.

    But if that interval is ignored in some cases the change interval works out to never.

    Try calling Tom the service manager at Elite Coach in Ephrata PA.

    717-733-1254 He runs a fleet of Prevost’s in the region and knows a lot of the DD shops.

    Shame you are not closer to Lancaster. There is a Mennonite run shop that exclusively works on DD engines – saw a 12V92 there – and are very reasonable.

    Also, they did my engine frame-on with no issues saving me money.

    Jim,

    Ignore Tom. He is a little testy because he isn’t loving the blow torch like heat out west.

    I do have a Liberty tool box slide. Make me an offer and figure out how to get it assuming I like your offer.

    Tom , I have circled the country for the past 6 years and have always taken the Interstates. That is why I bought the best driving machine for the mission . Then when i arrive I either take the 4×4 or MC to explore . Nobody on the road can do what we can so why not take advantage . Like they say Play to your strengths 🙂 Just my 2c

    Assuming it’s not “buried” it will amaze you how little of a pull is necessary to get the coach moving! Just a nice steady tug will get the bus motivated and out of that slick spot. You can raise the tag to get some additional weight on the drives, but if the ground is soft it’s more likely that you will sink in further. You can try rocking backward slightly and if you can see some clear ground, stop it while back slightly and apply a good dose of kitty litter for some additional traction (assuming the ground has dried out a bit) and you might well just drive it right out if it is only a slight divot.

    Thanks Gordon! Next time I’m under the coach with it safely supported, I’ll look for the bung.

    The Amazon alarm would work fine IF there were any outlets on a Vantare that only work with shore or generator power.

    Thanks, guys. John, thanks for that link — Linda would need extensive training, but she does type and spell well.

    Tom, the link you sent is not clickable, but I will search further.

    Gerald, fingers crossed.

    OK Larry, spill the beans, that new to you Marathon surely doesn’t need anything.

    While I set here in GA with one inverter bypassed. Heading to the boy’s in White House tomorrow.
