Calling all Road Warrior owners - RWS, RWT, RWM

Owners of Road Warrior Super C's have been posting on other threads and a few have mentioned it would be nice to have a place where owners of these units could post with other Road Warrior owners. Well - this is a start.

I'm Bob Smith. My wife, Debra, and I own a 2009 RWS3400 sitting on the usual C5500 chassis with the Duramax LMM and Alison Transmission. We hale from Billerica, MA. We purchased our unit from it's original owners in AZ back in September of 2010. After searching for this exact unit for a while, we got lucky and found a pristine rig from a family who took great care of it. They just didn't use it as much as they would have liked to and still had a TT they could use to go camping. So their decision to sell was great for us. With only 6000 miles on the clock and the like new condition, it was a great day for us to get this Warrior after months of research.

We've had a few minor issues, nothing that I couldn't handle, that made it a shame to think that attention to detail just wasn't a priority during the build. So, thats something we can all help each other out with. The minor wiring issues I've dealt with were all a matter of plugs being put into the wrong jacks (audio/video). Some simple additions to make the audio system more practical for MP3 or portable Sat radio use are items I can share with you. When i get the rig back in the spring I'll take some photos of the added jack for aux input on the house radio.

I say when we get it back because we currently have it resting at a center to have the interior seating redone. Out with the U shaped seating and in with the traditional drop down table with benches. It'll be more convenient for us as we have 4 kids and making that table another sleeping area will help. Also out with the J sofa and in with a Jackknife. Again, ease of use and larger sleeping area the concern there.

We also talked about adding an electrical outlet at the table. There's always a need to plug in a laptop or charges while sitting there.

There are more things we're looking at doing but the list is too long and we're not sure if it'll be cost prohibitive. So we'll wait a bit to mention them.

So - who are ya - where are ya - what have you found with your unit that may be an issue.

I know most are probably located more to the west. But let's see.

It's in the bottom of the clothes storage area next to the fridge. You have to pull out the bottom two drawers to work on it

I would guess that it is located near the inverter and other electronic gear in the storage locker left of the stairs. I relocated my shore power plug to inside the storage box and the cables just run to the other side.

You could also call Warrior Lifestyles (same WW owners different name) 1-800-500-9914, they directed me to Jeff when I had questions about my RV.

Hope it helps

Does anyone know where the 110V automatic transfer switch is located on our Road Warrior motorhomes?

I have no shore 110 power, but I do have generator 110 v power.
My Marinco 4 pole twist lock cord shows continuity. Any ideas?
Maybe power switch is bad? Any idea where it is located?

It's a "Fantastic Fan" but I bet it's just loose wires like mine. We have found that the wiring technician at a weekend warrior did not do a very good job and there's a lot of wiring problems.
Don't climb on your roof, and don't stand on your toilet to reach the dress ring.....


The next thing I found was loose wiring on the "buss bar" under the fuse box in the access panel under the microwave.

Mine did the same thing as you might see in earlier discussion.
I ended up removing the dress ring inside the bathroom, and found the wires were not connected with compression fittings, but just stuck in a socket where they could work themselves loose.

Hi Theo, same situation for me. The coach is a 2008 model, but the chassis is 2007. I think this is fairly normal for RV's.

Welcome to the family!
Im interested to hear about the solar panel install also. Pictures would be very nice.

its also interesting to see you call your unit a 2008 RWT. My unit was supposedly called a "2009" when I bought it, but it has the C5500 chevy unit that was built in 2008, and I think the MH chassis was added to it in 2009?, so its called a model year 2009?.

Ive also Been looking at my MH in the storage garage and thinking about turning the insurance back on and taking her out to somewhere warm.

Hey all. Just bought a 2008 RWT in November. We love it and have been out almost every weekend since. This forum has been helpful, thanks! I just installed two additional 6 volt batteries in the compartment to the right of entrance door. Had to strengthen the compartment with some plywood, drill some holes for venting and cables and secure the batteries, but overall pretty simple project. Now i can leave the inverter on and make coffee in the morning without the batteries running out half way through. Next step is solar panels and charge controller. Anyone out there run cables from the roof? Recommendations?
