I installed a tracking system on the coach and got my first report in real time (well made 2 or 3 minute lag). Now friends and realtives can follow our daily travels and even see a satellite picture our our current location. Cool stuff!

Installed screw eye at ceiling/wall junction on both side walls just behind driving seats. Added 1/4 nylon rope between screw eyes. Then hung king size bed sheet on rope making a barrier for improved cooling on the road using dash air and when camped using ceiling air. Without getting technical, there is a big difference. Enough that DW will sew/hem rope into one edge, cut excess off bottom and ends making it look more professional. Total investment <$5.00 for rope and screw eyes and maybe $15.00 if you don't have an old king flat sheet.


I did the same thing using blackout thermal drapes, ceiling track and the wheels that ride on the track. Haven't tried it out yet

Getting ready to change the engine oil and filter. Quick question...what size bucket do you guys use to store and transport the used oil for recycling?


5 gallon metal can with top. Put a wide funnel into spout of the can to direct the oil.

Finally re-routed and secured the new copper line to the ice maker. I had to install when the plastic line ruptured for the scecond time and didn't have enough slack to fix it. Last week I sprayed some silicon on my jack shafts; that was enough work for the day, so I went and had a beer. The week before I pried off the front hub caps to insure that I didna't have oil hubs. Got a price from Cummins/Coberg to have them installed when I have the coach serviced. It is about $100 more than packing the bearings so over long run it is worth it. I have 30 k on coach and have never had them packed but they still run nice and cool.

Washed all four sides,but not the roof. This was its first wash since I had it done in Borene Tx in March. I did OK until I was just about done. I started to get chest pains and out of breath,(common for me). I had to take a Nitro pill and sit down for 15 minutes. Next time I will only wash one side per day,or pay someone else to do it.

I have a 5 gallon jerry can. If I fill it to the top, it will hold 6.5 gallons. I have an oversized metal catch pan that had enough capacity to catch the oil out of the 8.3 Cummins that was in my old Safari.
