    Tiffin Phaeton Models

    Not just floorplan differences, but also what chassis the coach is built on. Freightliner or Powerglide. There is a difference in storage capacity between the two. Would suggest that you see them in person (assuming you can find dealers with stock as most are fairly lean right now depending on...

    To wax or not to wax, that is the question??

    Waxed our Journey (recently sold) once a year with Meguiar?s Gold Class carnauba wax. Still looked brand new after 10 years and our coach always sat outside. Going to try using Rejex on the new Tiffin since it is recommended. That one will be stored indoors since we plan on it being our last coach.

    How do I get rid of moles in my lawn

    Run a flexible aluminum hose extension from your car?s exhaust pipe into an active tunnel. Let it run for  20 minutes. They won?t be back.

    Waiting is the Hardest Part

    Upgrading from our 2010 Winnebago Journey 34Y to a 2020 Tiffin Phaeton 40 IH in 2-3 weeks. During a test drive, one of the lower compartment doors got bent from the slide tray which was obviously not locked from someone checking it out. New door on order from Tiffin. Waiting on the multi step...

    Newbie question - accessing the diesel generator

    I believe that model doesn?t have a generator built on a slide out tray. The Onan genset is bolted in place on the chassis frame. You access all fluid level checks via the front panel access door. The oil filter is accessed from the underside. Pretty easy to maintain.

    Tom, thank goodness I wasn't drinking coffee when I read that. It would have spurted out of my nose. Best laugh I've had this morning. Love your sense of humor.  ;)

    Oil change question -- Putting the oil IN???

    Mine has a selector valve on the side which can change it from a fluid evacuator to a pump dispenser. If yours has that feature, then it is a dual purpose device. Check your model number and download the owner's manual on line if you are not sure. But the selector is labeled as such. So you...

    Oil change question -- Putting the oil IN???

    You can also reverse it to pump oil out of the Mityvac and into your RV. I do this exact process to get rid of used oil from changing my TDI and into gallon jugs without spilling a drop.

    Oil change question -- Putting the oil IN???

    You may want to consider a Mityvac 7201.  Amazon typically has these for around $100. The bonus is that you can use them to change your car oil too as most newer vehicles can be drained topside in that manner. And in the winter time, no need to crawl down below on cold concrete. There are less...

    waxing

    Using power buffer would be cheating.  ;)  I do it all by hand, my friend. Besides, I'm only 56 and it makes my arms feel like Popeye when I'm done (which, of course, they are not).  :o
