Well I'm doing it again


I said I wouldn't put as much time, money and effort into this newer RV as the old one. But after spending two weeks in it, it needs a few things to make life a little easier. The audio speakers that came with it are junk so I installed better ones I gave Linda years ago. I tied the DVD, HD Tuner, 5 disc CD into the Amplifier and the newer speakers. I installed my usual hand throttle which holds the throttle constant saving lots of fuel.
By the way, in hilly country do not use the Cruise Control they waste a lot of gas by increasing the throttle uphills and let off too much going downhill. Hold your foot steady.
The lights got left on twice because there is no buzzer telling us they are on with the ignition off. All the cabinets need another coat of varnish. The usual fluid and filters changes are next.
The carpeting is loose on the inside engine cover. Every cabinet door catch was loose.
We replaced the bed, it was lumpy and hard.
It was a rental so to get it back in better shape I will have to do more work. Oh, heck, I need something to keep me busy.
