    You may not have had all 6 cylinders working before. Bill told me at the seminar our Jakes on the low setting is 4 cylinders and the high settings bring on the other 2 for all 6. I just had mine checked at DD in Ocala while getting a tranny service and there is no mistaking the Jake is working even at idle. They also confirmed there is no settings in the computer regarding Jake control, it’s either on or off controlled by 2 wires as Jon pointed out.

    You may have had an electrical connection snafu that has corrected itself.

    I got to know Ken as I was dealing with him on a coach he had for sale. He came across as a very nice and very knowledgeable guy. As I recall they had two new coaches in varying degrees of completion.

    Ken also mentioned he had purchased the rights to Wonder lodge, so this has to be bad news for them as well.

    I hope they all find something good and land on their feet.

    Chip & Pam,

    You will find being fully retired a real joy. Ann and I have been retired for about 18 months and this summer was the first time we have been able to travel at our own pace and our own schedule. It is GREAT! The hard part for me was learning to slow down and not worry about the phone or checking email. I am getting better at ignoring the phone. I even forget to take it with me sometimes. It really feels good when that happens.

    Enjoy your trip and smell the roses. You have earned it.

    Ronald –

    We stayed at the Grand Canyon Resort last year and loved it! Great accomodations and definitely take the train to the Grand Canyon. You can go in the morning and come back in the evening, or you can stay overnight at one of their hotels if you make reservations beforehand and spend another day as you have a return trip ticket on the train. We took one of the bubble-top cars (Kokopelli, of course) and sat in the top. You get to see the terrain and wildlife. We did see lots of deer, elk, and a few coyotes. There is entertainment on the train. We had banjo playing and a train robbery. We also took the bus tour in the park and the views were breath taking and refreshments. If you don’t take the bus tour, there is a park shuttle bus that will take you around. I would not take a vehicle into the park as parking is very limited!

    Have your cameras/phones charged up as you will see not only gorgeous views of the canyon, you will see crows doing aerial acrobatics and you may see condors. You have to make reservations two years in advance for the mule trip to the bottom of the canyon or to ride the rapids! Of course, you could walk the 6 miles down into the canyon and 6 miles back up… Do not get too close to the edge as it is a mile down to the bottom…

    There is a micro brewery across the street from the RV park and a Safeway a block away. It was nice that the Resort has a kennel on-site as we boarded the dogs there while we took the train trip. Depending how long you will be there, Williams seemed like a nice little western town to explore with old buildings and shops!

    Dick, I know exactly what was removed from your Liberty.

    It was the Rose Petal dispenser level indicator. :o)

    Good Question Jon,

    Initially in the southwest region of North Carolina. We have pretty mild winter with little snow and not many real cold days! Florida after that!

    For those that have Lithium Ion batteries, my understanding is that when ‘armed’, the watch-dog will power up the generator once we are 70% depleted (30% level of charge).

    Safe travels,

    I have been unsuccessful so far in finding if other tires are also included.

    I seriously doubt you have a problem, especially if you put tires from the same axle on the same side. Tags wear in strange ways because they are too lightly loaded, but the drive does straighten our the unusual wear pattern over time. We did some forensics on tag or lightly loaded tires and they do show strange wear.
