    The only thing in my engine compartment that’s gonna look that clean is a belt tensioner and an alternator belt!

    Can anyone walk me through the process of regulating the voltage via voltage regulator or bumping up the rpm I have called power tech multiple times and always get the machine im guessing due to the whole covid situation. I have an upcoming trip from Florida to Maine in a week and want to make sure everything is working as it should. Thanks in advance.

    Ralf: If this helps I am selling my Blue-Ox Tow Bar. It’s three years old, well maintained and in excellent condition. It’s a BX7420, 10,000 lb., with cover. $350.

    You’d need to install a Blue-Ox base plate.

    Guys, Listen to your coaches. Every coach I had did what Gerald described.

    I have a brand new dryer on mine and it purges periodically just like all the others that preceded it.

    It has been a couple of years since we drove through Florida during ‘Love bug’ season.

    What has worked well with those and other bugs is Spray Way foam glass/window cleaner. You spray it on, let it sit, maybe give it a second spray to loosen the bugs and they wipe right off.

    Normally, I will clean the Coach front every evening when traveling. It makes it so much easier than letting it get too messy.

    Safe travels!

    Years ago I heard Tim Foley of Miami Dolphins fame, saying that he used an Amway bug spray on his Prevost. He said you spray it on and after 30 seconds you can wipe them right off. I found out later that he was a big deal in Amway. I’ve not used it but I’ve had others say Its unbelievable how well it works. If you know someone in Amway ask them about it?

    My wife just told me that her brother had a motorhome and he would spray something from Amway on the windshield that prevented bugs from sticking. Or at least made it a lot easier to get off.

    Talk about a Looong wheelbase with a sleeper. Be sure and lube the 16 carrier bearings for the drive shaft.

    Are the front shocks the same part number as the shocks in the back?

    Just sent all my Dtv boxes back!! In 6 years of service, we never had a bill the same. I called in at least every other month to correct billing. Sat on the phone for an hour or more each time. As mentioned a few times, I scan for locals on the OTA antenna wherever we are and stream everything else. With certain streaming, you can watch the networks. With all the electronics available, I can check the weather forecast on my phone, watch the national news, and see a movie without the extra cost of either dish or Dtv. I’m sure most, if not all of us, have some sort of internet service. So I just use it! Of course, it will depend again on what package you have. We have a truly unlimited internet connection and have enjoyed over 200 GB a month many times, but when we are home, it sits idle as we have different internet at the house. Haven’t missed Dtv! I had it put on vacation mode for the last 2 months, until we got home to collect our boxes there to send back.

    At one of my visits at the Marathon factory with a dear friend of mine owning a beautiful 45′ Renegade Classic the Marathon sales man ( I won’t mention names..) kept referring to the Renegade as “..well it’s a truck”.

    Obviously, long after visiting Marathon we see each other many times at the track and I still refer to this and even gave him a “truck” parking spot, the key chain wallet and a truckers hat…..All good times!

    “But I did see a Liberty slide seal being replaced (after which I reread my coach warranty page and smiled”

    Tom, I feel vindicated! I got your back too!
