Guess the OP will have to decide for themselves.
A one man mobile RV tech won't be in business very long if they are a poor performer. Over the years I've needed to use different mobile RV techs in different states and they were quite competent. However I chose based on an RV park recommendation instead of blindly choosing one.Isaac-1 said:.....As to a counter point, why do you think a random rv mechanic would do a better job? Sure he may know how to rebuild a schwintek slide, or repair a water heater, but has he been trained to systematically look for signs of water penetration, .....
I finally figured out it's better to assume everybody I'm doing business with for the first time is attempting to scam me until proven otherwise. It's a jaded view of the world but it works for me and has kept cash in my pocket.thatguytom83 said:..... I'm upset with the generator, it was running fine during our initial viewing. I would hate to think their was malicious intent for service work, I really do. The facility has great reviews and while I think our salesperson was an honest person, the whole situation just seems really weird. I haven't seen my wife that pissed in a long time. They wound up compensating us for their diagnostic time estimate but now it is on me to fix it. I'm okay with that....
Remember Hanlon's Razor: "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity".I would hate to think their was malicious intent for service work, I really do.

We have a very long thread about others that have replaced the glass monster TV with a flat panel, put that on your upgrade list. Getting rid of all of that weight helps as well.
Oh, speaking of weight, as soon as you can weigh your rig. If you are not familiar with truck scales, there's a how-to on the Cat scales website.

If yours has the one piece fibreglass top, you might want to look into checking the edges where it seals to the trim. There is lots of info on the forums concerning this issue. Good luck, and happy trails.
