Re: What is your average freeway/highway speed?
Wow! A couple of days ago I was in my F-250 and was lock-step behind a motor home towing a mini-van on a tow dolly. My cruise was set at 77 MPH! I eventually went around it on a long hill and checked to see that it was a Monaco Windsor DP with single axle in the 35-40' range. I'm definitely no expert, since I don't even own a coach yet, but that seemed a bit much.397Views0likes0CommentsRe: Goodyear Tire Deaths for RVs
I've always wondered about tires that have been on the shelf for a long time. I'm inclined to agree with the tire dealer. I would think they would be the same as one that just came off the line, since they haven't been exposed to the elements, heat/cool cycles, thousands of pounds resting on them, but I don't have any science to back that up. Is there any data regarding "shelf" time?568Views0likes0CommentsRe: Goodyear Tire Deaths for RVs
I looked at a 2001 Georgie Boy last summer. Never owning an RV, I knew less than nothing. I joined the first forum I found and started asking questions. The first thing that I was advised to do was to check tire dates. Of the ones I could see, the dates were 3200. Apparently, it still had the tires it was born with, 17 years earlier. Even worse, they were G159 and G670s...yikes! I hope the guy that eventually bought it replaced them.568Views0likes0Comments
