We just bought a new Fleetwood Jamboree 30U. If anyone else has these, what do you do for power and tracking. The tracking on the highway is poor and the power is awful towing a jeep. Any suggestions? Thanks
For best power out of the Ford V10 you have to not be afraid to rev it. Running above 4000 RPM going up grades does not harm it ... but doing this does feel strange to folks used to good old rumbling V8's or diesels. Also, keep it's transmission in Tow/Haul mode all the time - not just when going up/down hills or when towing something.
For best tracking, have the front end alignment adjusted just right with a full load in the motorhome and also .... consult the tire inflation weight charts for the proper recommended tire pressure to match the weight on each front tire. Do not go over this recommended front tire pressure, as that will create a feeling of "wandering" as you go down the road ... which may be the cause of at least part of what you feel is bad "tracking".
