Hi, Have 1999 32 ft RV with V10 that is coming up to 60,000 miles. I regularly have oil filter and air filter changes. It has no problems but I feel at 60,000 it needs a service. Was thinking of the serpentine belt, coolant and transmission fluid change/flash. Interested in your opinions and suggestions. We are based in Dallas. Thanks
 
Most places that can fit the motorhome wouldnt have any problem with that. Dealerships. I wouldnt trust CW though
 
Whatever you do, don't take it to an RV dealer, take it to a Ford dealer or a repair shop that can handle the physical size of your motorhome. There's nothing special about working on the V-10 that a decent shop can't do.
 
Are you mechanically inclined? I changed out all of mine on our 98 Chateau. But, any local repair shop should be able to do the work. Are you in a cold weather part of the country? If not, any shop can do the work outside. The bottom radiator hose literally looks like an Octopus! It's a pain in the butt to change!
