Sooo here is the whole story!
I pulled into the RV pumps , Flyn Js have a grass area between the RV pumps and the truck fueling . I was in slot No1 which was closet to the grass Island , when i got of out the Bus to pump fuel a man in a Flyn J hat walked up to me and says you have to Pay First.
What I do back then was though out the year is put some money aside every week so i would have money for extra stuff while traveling. I put the money in a envelop and when i would leave i would grab the money and keep it in the Bus.
So when he asked me to pay first i stated i want to fill her up and i have no idea how much she is going to take and she is pretty low. I don’t like putting a dollar amount on my CC and get credit back if you dont use the dollar amout you put on the CC
So i went into the coach grabbed some cash went back out to the guy standing there with that Damn Flyn J hat and said lets start with 600… this is when he start that story about this guy winning the lottery and he was over there …. he was keeping me distracted so his buddies could come up behind me. so when i was putting the rest of the money back into my pocket is when the 2 other guys came up behind me a smacked me on the head. grab the money from me . I wasnt knock out but i did fall to me knees and very disy. they jump into the back of a pickup truck that was on the Truck fuel side and off they went .. I tried to get there plate number but could make it out.
There was a flyn J worker that saw it and tried to warn me .. which i did see him waving his arms across the lot but had non idea what he was trying to do or even if he was directing his attention to me.
Yes we did look at the video and we couldnt get the plate number from the video either. We did get a good descprition and the police took a copy when they finally showed . This had happened a few weeks proir to some one else
we all know where Indy is located and in 3 hrs you can be 3 different states ! Damn this brings up some bad memories … i think i need a drink….
Just a FYI i also am a pretty big guy and can do some Damage if needed… I am leaving a big peice out, my 2 teenage girls were inside sleeping . so like i said this all happened fast and all that was lost was my pride and some money that can be replaced …
so with all that being said if it was going to happen it happened that best way is could … we still had a great vacation …. and we lived thru it…ALL OF US!

We’d be interested in a meet at Jeff’s place. Looks like the eclipse will be very close.

HeyJeff
Which years and models (XL’s H3-45’s) have this problem?

I think its not how quickly you react … but how you react.

Tom,
I was there and recall how immaculately clean the underside of Kevin Erion’s coach was. I’m sure if it was turned upside down we could have eaten lunch anywhere on that undercarriage. Simply stunning.
His was one of two that were on the lifts. Was your the second one on the lift? I should have let them change my fuel filter while there but didn’t. That’s a story for some other time.
Still have, and wear, the hats they gave out.

Just a little valve stem sticking out? How do you check it and put air in? I wasn’t a trucker in any previous life, so all of this is new to me.

Very nice. Where did you have it done? Or did you do it all yourself?? what type of LED did you put under your coach & how did you attach them?

If you are talking about the driver side windows they are pretty easy. I have no idea if mine is like yours….but i just removed the screws from the 4 aluminum “L” chanels that hold the window in the frame. I used a putty knife & razor to cut the caulk. The window poped right out.
The curved side windows are just like the windshield they have a rubber gasket with a “zip strip” Just pull the zip strip and use a glass guy spoon to get under the gasket and like a bike tire run around the gasket and the window will come right out. I think it a two person job but some say you can do it yourself…….
A word of warning – if you buy new gaskets from Prevost make sure you get the zip strips. I ordered a winshield gasket and it came with the zip strip – then when I did a new gasket on a side window I did not realize they were NOT included. I had to next day air the zipstrips….. a $120 mistake + a couple hours wasted sitting on hold.

I will try to post a pix Tom but, the top horizontal surface of the bumper cover gets WAVEY when exposed to heat.
