Well, it wasn't today but last week.

Checked front tires, one had a wear line from a wheel alignment problem, had to replace both front tires ($800 each), get an alignment ($300) and balance both ($50 each). The ride on the coach is quieter and seems to ride smoother, although this is purely anecdotal. If you're ever in the Memphis area and need a wheel alignment, Leland Sowell's Frame & Alignment is the place to go. They have the right equipment to do the job and spin balance tires on the coach. Great people, great service. I have nothing but positive stuff to say about those guys.

Got the yearly service done ($500) at Cummins Mid-South along with a finding that our exhaust system on the genie was missing. After a lot of searching, found the right exhaust flange on PPL for a mere $38 and got a new pipe fabricated for only $25. At least something was cheap.

Third problem, keyless entry pad on the entry to the coach malfunctioned ($200). The new one is ever so slightly bigger, so had to enlarge the opening to make it fit. Thank goodness for Dremmel.

Once on the road, everything worked as expected, so no further problems... so far.

Today I stared at my RV and tried to figure out exactly how to get the new A/C onto the roof... still haven't convinced myself my plan is a good one... it involves risk, danger and damage..... I LIKE IT!

Of course... Figuring out how I'm going to get the old one off only took about 1 second of thinking and brought a big smile to my face thinking about chucking that thing off the roof :-)

Putting the front end back together after replacing the radiator. Before it's all done I need to build a new rubber dam for above the radiator
