New owner here

Many of us have 4x4 RV envy. You will have to make us even more jealous with your surf experiences. Welcome to the forum--I have found it invaluable.

On the road TP can be worked out by getting a loaded as you run it weight on each axle or wheel if you like. You can then look up the TP for that weight on a tire company chart. You can find them on most major tire company sites.

You are right you will have to really watch the rear tires when you lower the pressure. But I would think you will find a tire pressure that works. Remember you have two rear tires on each side so have a larger area and will not need to drop the pressure as much as the front..

Thanks for the reply. I'm looking to get on the beach this Sat so we will see how it goes

BTW for anyone still listening. Seeing as this rig is 4X4, I plan on being in the surf with it quite a bit. For everyday tire pressure would 60 rear and 65 front say? The door sticker still have the original 16" sized suggestions, but I have the upgraded 17" wheels and 245/17/75 tires now. I've seen that if I air down to 20lbs I should be good to go in 4L. My concern is the dually tires in the back rubbing. I can't exactly see running a spacer, as my wheels and tires now are slightly poking out as is.

Outstanding rig ... way to go!!

The chassis is right ... a rugged over-kill 4X4 V10 E450. The length is right ... kinda short. The quality is right ... PC builds pretty good stuff. The pedigree is right ... good old American gas powered iron.

IMHO, you've found "the perfect RV". Now go and show those TC owners that you have a Class C that can do it too, but with way more comfort when you do it.

Have fun, and keep us posted on your adventures.

Exactly what I needed to hear, thanks

Thanks for all the welcome wishes. Really appreciated. Should be out in the surf this next upcoming weekend.

Enjoy and lots to learn from the good folks here.

Good pick. Phoenix Cruiser is suppose to be one of the best made.
