The answer is yes ….but it requires more information about your bus which requires you to look behind your monitor on dash to see how many AV inputs are on monitor.
I replace my monitor so I had a inputs AV1 and AV2 which I can select with remote. The Techlink Screens on AV1 and Backup camera plugged into AV2. I have button on dash to select backup camera. I then remote over to AV2 on monitor.

My 2 cents is buy a coach that runs good at a reasonable price and redo the rest as you see fit. Would think Prevost or anybody else that works on these keeps all in a data base that you can see if maintained by them. These Coaches aren’t for the faint of Heart or shallow of Pocketbooks. I change my tires out every 5 years even if only a few thousand miles on them. Heck just spent almost 5 G’s on them last fall. $500 on chassis Napa Batteries. Do that every 3 years. Had a top of the line Holliday Rambler Motorhome before this and no comparison the way it handled.

Please clarify, reside in a state that does not require a CDL. Do you need a CDL if passing or visiting a state that in some degree does require a CDL?

When i got my NON- CDL license in Texas .. Had to do the written ( Pretty easy it took me about 15 min to complete ) and then schedule a driving test. The skills test was pretty simple.. Break Check test and explain what you are testing and why, then he had me back up 50 to 75 ft , without using the backup camera only using the mirrors without hitting the cones ( hit a cone you FAIL) then went on a 30 min drive around town. PASS that was it .. they might ask for a demo of parallel parking and shift lanes backing up without hitting a cone. ( He let me slide as i didn’t have a permit and i drove myself to the DMV and asked me who drove me to the location , i was honest and told him I DID , he was like you know you were not suppose to? .. The examiner was not an officer as when you take a auto driving test .
I took the exam just in case i ever got into an accident , so many out there looking for a reason to SUE IMHO.. better to be safe than sorry ..
plus it didn’t take much effort on my part. there are alot of youtube videos out there on CDL exams , but there are much more detailed than a NON CDL. What i took from them was the break test and explanation. There was no need to expalin all the parts and or mechanical of the rig..

I was reading yesterday the value of keeping campgrounds open on a FMCA letter. They say we should contact our state reps and let them know . The FMCA is lobbying for them to remain open as essential .
With over 1m full timers and countless snow birds I think I agree that campgrounds are essential . Just sharing the information .

He’s probably putting riveted stainless steel on his H3 because we secretly wishes he had a shiny X-coach.

If you like, I can start a thread about autonomous driving. That surely will wake a few folks up (hello Jon) and get ’em posting again!

Cadet gave me their old currently non existent part # 100750.
Found the part on several web sites for $830 – Cadet has a new replacement unit for $1990 or a factory rebuilt one for $1390.
The factory rebuilt is looking pretty good considering the cost of the individual part.

You are welcome. Tom also has reciprocal agreements with other bus companies for road service.

MemberApril 17, 2019 at 6:44 pm in reply to: 3 days @ Deteoit Allison for trans pro- Batteries?If you have an adapter for your shore power line you could see if they would be willing to plug it in to a 20 amp outlet just to keep the batteries charged. I would not turn on the auto start for the generator as I would not want it to start while they are working on the bus. If it can’t be plugged in, I would turn off both inverters and my battery disconnect switch; the batteries would not be drained if all of this was shut off.
