Geez, how can this "tomb of dodge rv" become a thread with sections and categorical indexing. Or,
Perhaps a PDF reconstruct for download?
Amazing info, great fun and clarity - all mashed into a downloadable - Searchable stew of knowledge... Online is better, but if the powers that be determine to maintain this huge stream of conscience as is, then pdf it for the mortals that want to keep these beasts running well.
Time is the issue ... every time I get my hands on "a round toit," it instantly bursts into flame.
Years ago, there was the start of an effort to collect and organize all the info in this thread, back when the RV.NET management tried to shut off this thread.
The resources are still there for doing what you suggest. What's needed are volunteers to do the collecting and organizing.
The RV.Net forums aren't designed/intended for that kind of information storage and retrieval, although they might be convinced to host it once it put together and people volunteer to maintain it.
The past effort was going to be built and (initially) hosted on a server account I have. The main domain (www.riffgan.com) is maintained for my personal and business activities. (Most of what's there is "hidden" ... i.e., the url's are provided to people who need and are authorized to access them.)
That server account also has an add-on domain, which currently only has one subdomain (forum.mopartrucksandstuff.com), which is still active but hasn't been used for quite a while. Other subdomains could be added to collect and archive the information in this thread.
Note: The mopartrucksandstuff.com add-on domain only costs me $10 per year, so I'm not interested in, and do not want, donations. The primary domain (riffgan.com) is proprietary so I cover that expense regardless.
All this is a possibility for collecting and organizing the wealth of information contained in this thread. Nothing I'm suggesting is intended to compete with RV.NET. My preference is to supplement RV.NET with resources outside their apparent scope.
BTW - when I get around to it, I want to update the www.riffgan.com/motorhome/ pages, reorganizing, expanding, and bringing them up to date. Currently, I can see a light at the end of the tunnel to getting back to working on MLP (My Little Project) ... hopefully the light is not an approaching train.
