I went through this about two months ago. I wanted to repaint the generator door on my coach. Went to NAPA and couldn't get a good match so I called Fleetwood with my vin#. The lady said the paint code was in the back closet so I look and it said the color but no paint code. I call Fleetwood...

Holy Mackeral....now THAT is what I call a "Class C" What's the inside look like?   8)

Now thats my idea of a camping trip! Camping and fishing, it don't get no better!     :)

Sorry to hear about that but I'll bet that doesn't happen again. Only thing so far for me is running into the bedroom slideout corner, head first..........dang that hurts. Really dumb thing is I've done it twice!   :-[

Nice drum guys, I use to live in NC and my Dad and I would surf fishing several times during the fall on Ocracoke (his favorite fishing hole, lol). That was a long time ago and I haven't been back sadly. Would you guys know of a good campground to go to on the outer banks these days?

I "remodeled" two of my florescent fixtures with the strip LED's. My fixtures were knocking my thermostat off due to RFI. I think it was 17 feet of LED's at about $25 shipping and all. I had enough to do three fixtures. I did two rows of LED's in the bathroom fixture and 4 rows of LED's for the...

Yep CW has the $1.99 deal here in sunny SC and that is a very good deal :-) Trouble is I'm never driving the beast on Tuesday or Wed. Good news is, I'm fixin' to be "retarded" (retired) in a few months so being on the road during the week is starting soon......yeehaa  ;D The Tractor Supply in...

I have a buddy that drives a tanker and he has told me of the regs. these days. If gas or Diesel gets contamination some one really has to try hard to contaminate it. Talking about fresh fuel....don't forget yes your fuel is fresh when you fill up but with winter coming on she may sit there a...

Hey cool....a question that I can answer, lol Usually I'm asking a question. When you're looking at a MH look under and or between cushions cause usually there are seat belts. They just don't get used and do get pushed out of sight. Some will have more than others, you just have to look around...

How close?...Too close  ;D it feels like I could touch the thing but seriously, I'm over, to the right, as far as I dare, about a foot off the rumble strip. I really got a shove from one that was going much faster than me, and I was running almost 65. Thats when I slowed down to 55-60...

Hey all, Latest news...After emailing the VIN# and my phone#, within about a hour, Les, from Freightliner called. He told me to check my ride height and how to measure it. 10" front and 9 3/4" rear (plus or minus 1/4"), measured from bottom of the frame rail to middle of the lower shock bolt...

I tried it the other day and I can achieve high idle with either procedure......that is so cool  8) Thanks folks for yet another tip!!!!

I emailed Freightliner today and got an immediate reply. They asked for my VIN# and phone #, of coarse I didn't have the VIN # since I was at work, but they said there was a few things for me to check once they new my VIN number. I will email that info to them Monday. Good to have a company...

I checked the toe-in and best I can tell there is maybe a 1/16" toe-in. I must admit I'm not real confident about the method of measurement, especially measuring 1/16" difference with two pieces of schedule 40 pvc pipe. I also used one of those telescoping paint poles and got the the same...

Thanks to everyone, it sure helps to bring things to the discussion table. I'm feeling pretty good about the tire pressure, I try diligently to set tire pressure to chart recommendations and I have "played" with the pressure 10 or so lbs above and below the recommended pressure to no effect to...
