Thanks for the update, Bruce. I recently talked with another Allegro Open Road (FRED) owner, Don Watson, who reports nearly identical figures on his 32 footer.
It's always nice to have something to look forward to. I know diesel engines are broken-in till about 25/30,000 miles. With both of my previous diesel engines, the fuel mileage increased about 10 percent after the break-in period was over.RV Roamer said:Thanks for the update, Bruce.

What is a "mcd" shade? How about some pictures of the new "mcd" shades and a little more info on them. Was this a warranty issue, or did you just pay for them?wb6anp said:Thanks, Here is the pic of our new one. We just had all the pleated dya night shades changed out to the mcd day nigh shades, they are so much better we love them.
Thanks for the info, I had problems with our original day/night shades. In June 2008 we visited Tiffin's service facility in Red Bay, Alabama, all were replaced; the new shades aren't much better. Tiffin Service Department noted this in our coach's file and has agreed to fix the problem in June 2009, when we plan a return visit. I'm hoping by then, they will have a another manufacturer's product to install; if not, MCD may be an option.Tom said:
