Joe, why are they going to NH to a RoadTrek dealer, when there is a RoadTrek dealer in Raynham, MA, both dealerships are owned by the same folks.

Don't want to get too far off topic, but for any new buyers, buy locally, unless you are saving a lot of money, and figure it's worth driving to that dealer for service. RV dealerships are not like auto dealerships, they are independently owned, and do not have to service your RV. I know, not great PR for the manufactures, but it happens a lot. Dealerships are going to service their customers first, and since they often don't make much on warranty work, don't be surprised if they refuse to do the work for you, or make you wait several months.
Please, if you want to discuss this further, start a new thread, so this one stays on topic.
Thanks

After 20,000 plus kms to Newfoundland and back this summer, the RT sat out in the fall rains for the past month. Most of the road dirt got washed off, but today, the RT is really clean (on the outside) having washed it from the roof on down. Tomorrow the windshield has to have the wax removed from today's wash.

We had 4 heavy duty Bilstein shocks installed today on our 2004 Pleasureway. Rides great now.

Hi Ron. I talked to the couple again last night: The dealer has a larger inventory of models RT's on display at the NH site at this time. The couple likes to travel. They want to look at all options. As My Roadtrek requested, If you want to discuss this further, let's either do it by E-mail or as a new topic.

Not today but recent. I replaced the CO2 detector (Mount High) and the propane gas detector (Mount Low).
Seems like 3-5 years and they are shot. Safety is all important in the confined space of a "B".

Our 2000 Roadtrek 190P didn't come with a genny. Added a second battery and a 1750 Watt inverter. Replaced all the interior incandescent bulbs with LEDs. Next Spring, I plan to install two solar panels up top...

Took a trip to Milwaukee, WI to see The Christmas Carol. Spent the night at the Wisconsin State Fair Campground. Our Roada was winterized, so it was nice to have a place with electric and nice bathroom facilities. Only one problem....NO HOT WATER.

Finished removing the curtains and turned the old ones and the new material over to the seamstress. New window treatments next spring. Also finished cleaning the interior. Gonna wash it tomorrow before putting it in storage for the winter.

Today ,
I located and fixed an infernal rattle (loose upper shock bolt) I should have retorqued them after the initial install.

I removed my rear door handle from the door and fabricated a new spring so the thumb trigger now rebounds on it's own.

I installed new poly dust boots on one tie rod end and one end of my Drag link replacing those that split very prematurely Also, Greased every zerk on the Van.

I installed a new PCV grommet and valve.

Re attached my new matching full size spare tire(30x9.5x15 Kumho Sat kl6)1 after recently repainting the rim with appliance epoxy, and checked all tire's PSI.
