    Duramax Intercooler Outlet Pipe Failure on Chevy Express Shuttle Bus

    Hi All - Just joined the forum. I have a 2012 Chevy Express 4500 shuttle bus with a Duramax diesel engine. I bought it in 2019 to convert into a tiny home on wheels. It was a retired Skagit County (WA) transit bus, so it had been well maintained. All the major conversions to the living space are...

    DEF Best Practices for Testing, Storage, and Pump vs Jug Use

    I’ve been in the DX3 since late 2018 but lately decided to revisit how I am using DEF. Since the beginning I have used DEF at the pump but lately have run into potential “quality” issues with that process. Since one of the things a DEF head monitors is fluid quality I want to pay closer...

    Slow Diesel Filling on a Bravado 29SF

    We just filled up our Bravado 29SF for the first time today. While we were pumping the Diesel the sign changed from $5.09 to $5.11. However our pump stayed at $5.09. Big complaint -- I hold to hold the pump handle to VERY slowly add the diesel. It took 30-minutes to add 40 gallons. Ken

    Gas Prices Across the Map: What RVers Are Paying Right Now

    Brilliant strategist that I am, I decided that we didn't need to gas up as we almost always do before pulling into this park two weeks ago.
