    The key to how you do it Gary is you have your foot on the brake. I think on our vintage coaches if we do not have our foot on the brake the gear selected will flash and it will not engage.

    We took our first trip in the Marathon to NOLA after Christmas. We stayed at the KOA. The people were nice, and the owner was there. Big rig access was possible, but a little nerve racking. The power line that feeds the office is pretty low and required a careful trajectory. The large sites are on the main campground road and are back in sites. We were the only Prevost there, and one of the few diesel pushers. The price was reasonable, I think about $70 per night average for a week during New Year’s and Sugar Bowl weekend.

    I checked out the French Quarter RV Park, and I was not impressed. If you want to walk from your coach to the French Quarter, it is the only choice.

    Big Al is absolutely correct. Apart from the savings which is substantial, the best thing about the card is if you get a salesclerk who has never encountered the card, just ask him to follow the instructions on the back.

    That feature makes the entire process easy.

    I agree and will inspect them frequently from now on. Strange that the tire on the other side had the same date of 2010 and was fine. That would lead me to believe this tire had some sort of manufacturing defect that might have been insignificant had it remained on the steering axle.

    Personally, I never make a slow speed tight turn unless I take the pressure out of the tag air bags, BUT I haven’t owned this coach all the time those tires were on the tag.

    Jon, that sounds like a fun game at the No-Rallie, Rallie, but you would have to keep people quiet on what they have installed.

    This topic has really gotten my attention. A long time ago I had three friends who insisted they had a favorite beer, and that no other beer could compare. They each claimed they were able to identify their beer by taste. So we did a blind taste test and all three guys were given samples of all three beers and were asked to identify which beer was theirs.

    Not a single guy got it right.

    I wish we could do a blind driving test in which about half a dozen guys participated, and in which 3 coaches had new Konis, 3 had OEM and each guy had to identify which coach was which merely by driving them.

    How did you flip the pictures?

    I opened each image in a new window and then copied that image into the “My Pictures” folder on a Widows 7 laptop. I rotated them there so I could see them right side up. From there I decided to see if they would post that way in your thread. They did so I left them. Computers rarely do what I think I tell them to do so I am always thrilled when they obey.

    January 4, 2015 at 6:48 am in reply to: Possible No rally rally

    I haven’t looked at the distance covered, but it is somewhere around 600 to 650 miles.

    At the blazing speed of 62 MPH I can cover a lot of ground in a day. It is amazing how many drivers go blowing by our rather conservative speed and how often they do that over the course of a day. Some drivers havde passed us at least five times during our trip yesterday. I don’t know how fast they are going, but I do know they must have to drive fast to compensate for all the time they must spend not driving. We may be slow, but we sure are steady.

    No offense here, good post. I have Law Enforcement experience like others here on PC and I just have a hard time with the concept of being stopped because I have Montana plates and something different on the toad. Like I mentioned before, what vehicle law has been broken? My bus is properly registered and insured as my toad. Show me the code that says that is illegal.

    What say you other Law Enforement guys?

    those at the ones. Admin mentioned putting a silicon bead, that may be the only other option since I can’t find the gaskets.

    Thanks! The stop button was moved down and I did not know or think about it.

    Thank you so very much, from an old guy who must be losing it!
