Re: Let’s see where the wind blows me
I emptied my pockets at the door
When I asked about a mask They told me it was optional ‘What’ I haven’t entered a public space in over a year without a mask . At a government building I was told I didn’t have to wear one So I didn’t |

Re: Let’s see where the wind blows me
Very nice pics and what a cool trip! What year is that sprinter? That would be my only concern on your trip.

Yesterday the lower hinge broke on the refrigerator door And it fell off going down the road This morning when I got onto the freeway I heard a pop similar to the one I heard before I got to Larry’s Good thing he told me to keep the extra duct tape Had enough to get me to the next gas station before the window fell out I bought a big roll Just in case I have to wrap the entire coach Last edited by Chevyland; 05-18-2021 at 10:33 AM. |

just a few more years and I'll be there for good and we'll definitely have to plan a get together, around a show nearby would be great! it's tough to hit the 5-6 week window we're usually there plus the detour to ohio for Mrs. Bee's family visit - yep, she's a buckeye

Re: Let’s see where the wind blows me
Larry, if it has the electric ebrake actuators keep an eye on the wire connectors. Rocks will hit the wires/connectors breaking the connector or wires and the park brake will stay applied. Maybe the DRW rear axle is different than the SRW one and you won't have to worry about that.

Re: Let’s see where the wind blows me
sorry to see you're having a little trouble on the shakedown cruise but at least those are easy fixes and hopefully covered by warranty when you get home..
but we're going to tease you anyway

Re: Let’s see where the wind blows me
Well at least with all the duct tape, it won't be too difficult to figure out who it is coming down the road!

Re: Let’s see where the wind blows me
I am in Brockton MA 20 minutes south of Boston. I sent you a PM. Are you here for long?
I would be happy to meet the great adventurer if possible.

I'll reach out when I receive the PM. When are you doing the warrantee work? That is not a bad section of Brockton. But most parts are sketchy!
