StuartT, wow, beautiful coach. I had to replace our coolant box 3 times on our '08 Dynasty as Monaco must have had a bad batch. I could tell that the last one was made sturdier. It would lose pressure and on the last one I replaced, it was leaking at the fittings at the top so keep an eye on that.
Also, if you have the 600 hp Cummins, it sits low in the cradle. Be careful going in and out of dips as the engine can bottom out. Friends of ours had a '07 Sig and knocked a hole in the oil pan going into a T/A service center in Las Vegas. Those things hold a lot of oil!
Safe travels,
Mark
Thanks Mark. I saw that low slung engine. There is an impact spot on the exhaust cross under pipe going under the pan. The 600hp holds 56 quarts (I know, I just had the oil changed before I left Myrtle Beach) so the pan is definitely a big one. I was in shock at a $500 oil change (Included the genset as well).
