Just as I thought I had them fixed in such a way, i.e. with metal wheels and better mounting, to allow them to roll properly, they lasted all of 700 miles from...
I currently own a gas Bounder but I am looking at diesel rigs of many makes including of course Bounder. I am going to go look at a 2001 Expedition 34' on...
Bob, The 2001 should be at least a 275 Cummins and will probably get around 10 to 11 mpg depending on your style of driving. I would suspect that transmission...
Our 2004 rig came with the Michelin XRV tires in size 255/80R-22.5. I keep hearing so many somewhat negative things about these tires we're thinking of ...
... Carol, like you, I have heard some bad things about Michelin 22.5" and larger tires, mainly from truckers. But the XRV is not a truck tire so I'm...
... of ... than ... re- ... I too have the Michelin XRV's, with 30K on em and theres still lots left on the tread, and the sidewalls are in great shape, they...
Bob is correct when he points out that Kelly Bradley and I have switched to Toyo tires and both of us are happy. I have a 2000 36S diesel and chose the M120Z...
For those of you who read messages on line, Yahoo has become very unfriendly. I suggest you install free software call SpyBot and "immunize" your computer...
Bob is very correct on this point. I have been using Spybot for a few years now. After reading about the various reports about Spyware, I now have three...
Microsoft have just finished distributing an internal Beta 1 escrow build to internal beta testers. "Atlanta" is the code-name for Microsoft's rehashed GIANT...
... Thanks for the link. Jim. I downloaded all 6.23MB with my slow modem and will try it out. Speaking of slow modems, on the advice of Fred White I went to a...
OK, gang, thanks for the input on the tires. So it appears we'll go ahead and keep these on here a while, since they're in great shape and we're careful not...
I had the same problem in finding Toyos. As a result, I put on 255/70/22.5 Yokohama's on mine. I have just over 5,000 miles on them and am very happy with...
... Derrell and Carol, you both hit on the biggest consideration when selecting new tires as far as I'm concerned: value for my money. There is no doubt in my...
Despite setbacks in the general Bounder forum, mostly of my own doing, I am still continuing to develop a POSSIBLE Bounder forum concept. I did not make it...
To all, I would like to recommend that you go over and register on the forum. I gladly volunteered to assist Bob in this forum while he works to make our ...
... Thanks for the kind words, Jim. I probably should point out that the test forum is not BOA sanctioned. I am using the BOA host server because it has...
Kelly here...yeah, I remember the claims the Toyo's would ride horribly as they're bona-fide truck tires. Honestly, I noticed they had a bit, and I mean just...
... That FlyingJ in Phoenix is one of the hardest places to get out of that I have ever seen. If you use the truck side for refueling in AZ, be sure to let...
I posted this on the regular Bounder group, and I hope I have the correct diesel group so I don't get in trouble for posting this: I have a friend who works at...

Hello All.. (Especially Kelley) Well, Ole DD had his first full blown blow out on the inner passenger side dual on News Years Eve.... Some wires seemed to be...
... Whoa.... I did that on my '91 and it did some serious damage to the floor just behind the tire -- and the water tank resting on the compartment floor. How...
Anyone know where they might hide the switch for the signal booster for the roof TV antenna? Our rig is a 37U. We've looked in the entertainment compartment...
Yes, but Kelly was it hard to find a Toyo dealer? That's been my impression as I surf the Net. 'Cause it's nice to own something that has a nationwide ...
Hi, This e-mail is for the owner of the 2004 39Z Diesel Bounder who was at Freightliner Factory in Gaffney, SC on December 9, Thursday trying to get his...
Bob, you ain't lying! I learned about the car vs. truck pricing last year, it's like ten cents a gallon, not chump change when you're talking 70+ gallons. ...
Um, I don't buy these are 'compatible' on a dual setup. The 245 Toyo is over an inch smaller in diameter than the Michelin. Take 235 times .8 times 2 divided...
