I would definitely take it your mechanic to check the engine and possible rust/wear on the underside. If there's a way to check the gray and black tanks for leaks that'd be good, too. At that age you should reseal (silicone) around the windows, too. I recently broke down on the NYTurnpike with a...

Hi Miguel, I also have a '90 Falcon, which I love. Mine did not come come with any instructions, but I found most of my questions were answered here by informative folks. I not only drive it on my many long trips, but also as a second vehicle around town. Hope you have lots of great adventures...

Hi Tony, Yours is the same year as mine. I hope you have many outstanding adventures in yours!

Hi Cathleen, It sounds like you're really going to enjoy your van! I didn?t have the need to remodel mine so I can't give you any pointers about this except to go with light weight materials. I'm enjoying mine right now driving around Ontario, even in cold weather. Safe travels! Lynne

I really enjoyed the slide show, too. Now I can't wait to hit the Alasakan roads, too. I see you added the pop top to your van. Isn't it wonderful to be able to stand up instead of bending over all the time?! For years I travelled in a beautifully converted cargo Dodge van (I love the woodwork...

Hi! Yes, I've owned a 1990 Ford Falcon for 2 yrs and she's (it's a girl van:) a beaut! I took her out last summer for a monthlong, 5,000 mile trip to the Cabot Trail and other out of the way places on the East coast and she never missed a beat. Granted, the original owners didn't drive it much...

THank you for your kind reply. These now make alot more sense! When I bought my 21 yr old class b van it didn't have one manual with it. I've been scouring the internet looking for manuals to download, and thankfully I've found a few. Nowhere on the website of my systems monitor was an...

I have a rather tame question.... does anyone know what C, G, F and L stand for on my battery monitor? Colourful, Goofy, Flapper and Latte don't seem to make sense :)

Hi Ned, Thanks for getting back to me on this issue... only now I'm totally confused (after looking at the Linux site) as to what exactly a Linux is. I think I'll go with your recommendation and stick to libraries to read emails. Hope you enjoy your summer!

Hi All, I just found your forum and really enjoy reading your posts. I'm heading out soon for a month of creating artwork in New England, NB, NS and PEI. Since I won't be taking a computer, smart phone, etc (I'm a partial Luddite), does anyone know if there are places along the way to read...
