What kind of converter/charger?
I just traded my 1995 Wilderness 5th wheel in for a 2005 Coachman Capperal 5th wheel, Over the years I had replaced my converter in the Wilderness with a Progressive Dynamics with Charge Wizard I also cabled it and ran two 12 volts in parallel. I never looked back as it kept the batteires topped off with little or no loss of water. Does anyone know what converter Coachman puts in their trailers as I assume the one in mine is the original equiptment. Thanks.
RE: Chevy engine vs V-10
I drive a 24 seat shuttle buss for a living, my assigned bus is an 8.1 liter Chev, for most of the summer I had to drive a Ford with a v-10, in all categories, acceleration from a stop, pulling power, and transmission smoothness the Chevy beats the ford hands down, granted the fords are about the same in manitenance costs and a little better in fuel economy, but in this business your talking 7-8 miles to a gallon.
RE: Great spot within 6 hours of Kansas City
With 2 kids try Lake Rudolph Campground it is in Santa Claus IN just about at your six hour limit,3hrs east of St Louis but with a week off you would have plenty of time and could stop somewhere on the way,The campground is right next to The Holiday Village Park and Water Park,check them out on their web site. www.lakerudolph.com
