We will be at Xtreme graphics in early June to have our slideout side wall delamination repaired. When we are done at Xtreme we are heading over to MOT for some service. In addition to the items I am listing below, what would you have done? We will have put 10,000 miles on the coach since Arpil of 2009 and lived in it full-time for the past 9 months.
We will have the following done:
Full lube, oil and filter service
Replace Transynd and filters
Service brakes
What would you add to the list?
George, you'd be well served to begin a log for the maintenance of coach and chassis. There are so many details and items to attend to that it's nealy impossible to stay on top of maintenance w/o a good system that works for you. I believe Barry's web site beamalarm has some suggestions you can begin to use to begin your system. If not I can send you mine, which BTW was started with a prototype spreadsheet Barry was good enough to send me. I was supposed to add to it, but it is so well organized I could not improve upon it.
George,
Do you have your Foretravel Maintenance manual that came with the coach?
That will give you the guidelines when service should be done.
I will look for that book tomorrow. I sure hope I have it. I get the feeling that it is important to be proactive about service.
Well, since your going to be in NAC early June you can come visit us at camp FT getting to know our Big Gal - We will be just getting back to NAC about 1st of June 'o)
Found two yummy BBQ places and was told of a great MEX place there - the Kroger grocery is nice, clean and staffed well a delight in a small town -
Looking forward to seeing y'all in NAC

VJ & C,
How long will you be at FOT?
We may never leave FOT, just get a push broom and keep the parking lot clean - :P :P :P
I'm thinking we will be in the NAC area for at least a good month to 6 weeks - we're going to look into the Wisconsin and or Branson motorcade trips to do so we can get to know our coach better -
The coach is going to take 10 days to two weeks before we can take delivery then we will stay at FOT for several days to move in, get familiar with driving her and get my class B upgrade DL - That means we won't get her until about June 2nd/3rd -
We will relocate maybe just up the street on 59 I saw a small shaded rv park and on the road that Lowe's is on just off 59 is a RV storage place I can put our LD while we are waiting for it to sell - If we don't hang right there at NAC for several weeks then we may go down to Escapee's, but we aren't too crazy about Livingston area - I've also got a truck and cargo trailer we're getting out of storage to sell - it is all going to go finally except what we need to live in our Big Girl and tow our Matrix -
Send me a email ETA and I'll send ya my phone # so we can GTG in NAC - looking forward
V, J and C
