I've noticed, for a while now, but I've really dug into it recently, the slide-out's topper/cover roller has ends which are now elliptical. They should, in my...
Hi all, I am looking at purchasing my first MH, and the early 90's diesel Bounder seems like it would serve my young family well. I am looking at taking the MH...
... I believe it started with the 1996 models. Early Bounder Diesels were all on an 8' wide Oshkosh chassis. There is much more info on those models here: ...
Hi All, Has anyone else dealt with Dometic on the recent recall...? I got a recall notice which I have been dealing with this week. Per the recall: "THE...
Steve Kline, Have you tried to contact action line for good sam members? I haven't had a lot of problems of that nature but on one they sure got something...
... For those with DOMETIC (be sure it is not a NORCOLD brand, which is a completely separate issue) simply go on line to here with your model and serial...
... Gentlemen, Thanks for the input. Actually there is no confusion except within their operation in regard to what is now permitted. Seems the policy has in...
... Steve, I'm happy to see things are working out right for you. However, I am concerned about the info ("contain the fire") you stated above. Please provide...
Bob, if you refer to my original post the statement of problem which contains the word "fire" is taken verbatim from the Dometic recall letter. The following...
... Sorry Bob, Sometime in the middle of mowing my lawn I finally understood what you've been trying to tell me. Something along the lines of - Go slow, you...
... Yep, but it is not just you. Me too! We have a lot invested in these RVs and it is understandable that we get upset when things go wrong -- and a frig is...
I was looking thru a recent ad from Costco and noted that they were going to start selling the 7200 on 4/11 for $499. I believe this is only thru their web...
I wonder if the maps are any better. I have the 2610 and even with the new updated map it is horrible. Soemtimes it will route you 100's of miles out of the...
... the ... of ... of a ... route ... Sorry you had the problem. I had a 2610 until the 2720 had been out long enought to show that there'd be no 2710 and I...
I have heard many times that slower speed means better mileage -- but I always figured 1/2 mile per gallon wasn't worth the extra driving time. Yesterday and...
Bob, sounds too good to be true. Did you consider the extra 6 miles per hour that you have to drive and the fuel that has to be used to drive it. Not much but...
Jeff: You are right in that your math is not up to snuff. All that matters is your mpg. Time has no bearing on the amount of fuel. Let's simplify this: Trip...
Greetings... A month or so ago, I offered to the group a copy of an article I wrote entitled, "Who Cares about Fuel Costs!" My data was based on nearly 25,000...
Right you are Bruce. But I had to stop and scratch my head a minute at the logic... And I taught HS Math for 31 years :) Dale 00 36s 07 Wrangler Getting 9.7...
Hmmm. 8.4 to 10.1 with merely a 7 MPH change...and it's not like you're going from 82 mph to 75 mph, either. Seems suspicious, but the VMSpc doesn't lie....
Kelly, I wonder if "cruise control using more fuel" is a myth held over from the carburetor days and the accelerator pump that threw in raw fuel whenever...
... About 350 miles each leg. For those who are suspicious about the accuracy of VMSpc reports, those figures are better than actual fuel pumped once...
Bob, I do agree with Kelly .. at least with our T-handle MT643 transmissions, if I can keep the throttle steady, I can do better not using cruise control,...
... OK, if you say so -- but I really find it hard to believe. You speed up to get "a run at the hill" -- and I know that speeding up costs me money because I...
Bob, No .. I keep the throttle in a constant position and just let the rig slow down going up the hills. Unless we are running up something like the...
... I am still not getting this. Forget going UP the hill, which in the Econ Mode will almost always put me at 100% while keeping the rpm as low as possible....
Bob, Sorry .. that was a stupid statement I made. Yes, I certainly do back off when going down the other side of a hill AFTER I have returned to about 55 ......
... I think we are all saying the same thing in different ways. Cruise control or not (some of us need it <g>), one of the most important things in the face...
Hello Guys... Has anyone on this BB had the electric fan clutch installed on their Bounder? I was close to buying one a year ago when I was still driving quite...
