Steve, you do realize we make up most of our answers?
Thanks to all the dues money Tom has sent to me this year I am planning on growing my own food again this coming year.
Truth be told, we hope everyone is benefiting from PC and enjoy it as much as possible.

Steve,
Assuming you have some removable panels in the forward bays, they may be located there. If I remember, I had 2 located behind the panel for the gen battery on my 02. Are you certain you actually have the PLM’s since yours has roof airs?

Jon,
Are you suggesting that some of our coaches are in fact clunkers?

Doubt you would get many washes with that, I buy resin in bulk for my DI tank, it’s the only way to go.

This is just my observation and may not apply to everybody.
My coach has 4 Cruiseair units with a total BTU of somewhere around 52,000 or about 13,000 BTU each unit.
I also have OTR which probably has about 90,000 to 100,000 BTU. With the OTR system I can be pretty careless about maintaining the coach interior temperature. It has a lot of cooling capacity so if the interior gets heat soaked I have a whole lot of cooling capacity to deal with that.
But if I did not have that ability to make the entire coach comfortable pretty quickly I would have to manage the interior temperatures. If the interior gets very warm even running all 4 house A/Cs (the equivalent performance of an RVAC plus 2 other units) it will be a struggle to get the interior temps cool, especially if it is warm out and the sun is beating down on the coach. So it is important to never let the coach interior temp get too warm.
However, if the coach interior is comfortable and I keep the sun from shining in and heating up interior surfaces like the dash and the furniture and cabinets by using the shades 2 units will maintain the temps. However, the placement of the A/C units, combined with the interior configuration an even distribution of interior temps is a challenge so during the hottest times of the day we tend to use 2 units up front to keep the LR and kitchen area comfortable, and as the sun goes down a little, we switch one front unit off and turn on the bedroom (aft) A/C.
Having said that there are two things to consider. When I want it cool, my definition is the interior is so cool the windows get condensation on the outside. Certain Floridians (whose initials are TC) who wear hoodies when the temps drop below 85 complain about my preferred interior coach temps. My willingness to select where the 2 A/C units are located as described above is based on being on shore power and by using only 2 A/C units (one on each leg) I can be pretty sloppy when it comes to managing shore power. But if I am dry camping and running the generator I use every A/C unit, and let the thermostats let them cycle as needed because the start up current draw on A/C units isn’t enough to even come to be a current management problem with the generator.

Thanks, to all.
sounds like it is the exception, to the rule.
I have done all the suggestions when I first got the coach, as far as the Galley. never had to change the Bedroom, and I am going to leave well enough alone;)
It is a “very nice feature ” for North Texas weather.

This isn’t about leaks or rattles. It is about structural integrity and when the modification hasn’t included the strength engineered into the current shell configuration the problems have gone beyond leaks to cracking windshields.

Talk to Donnie Myers as George suggested, he just recently cautioned against doing it unless it was done a certain way and it won’t be cheap.

My tanks have no baffles. I have had all the tanks out and replaced the fresh tank. No baffles. None needed. Tank was professionally cleaned side to side and top to bottom. No residue left behind.

Yeah…I was going to say that too. They need the good smell to help overcome the bad when the tank starts to leak…which it will.
Another thing to get looked at on my Liberty.

I agree natural gas would be a great alternative, but so would a bay full of farting cows or the gas produced by the local landfill.
This is not about emissions, it is about reverting society to one that lives in caves and eats roots and twigs.
I really miss my 8V92 that could pour thick black smoke into the booth when the toll takers were mean or disrespectful.
