RE: Reliability of new 2015 6.7 powerstroke or Cummins Diesel
I never had an issue with any of my Dodge/Ram trucks. 1996.1998,2001,2011.2016,2018. I worked them all very hard, they love it. Good luck with whatever you do.

RE: Tiffin Motorhome repair Red Bay rule change
If your close to your selling dealer and they are good at service I would think you would be fine. But that is tough to do. Good Luck!

RE: Tiffin Motorhome repair Red Bay rule change
Having owned a Zephyr for over 6 years and having been to Red Bay, I won't buy another Tiffin either.

RE: USAA Insurance
I have been with USAA since Feb 1987. They used to be GREAT. Then about 10 years ago they started slipping. These days I have my house with them, but that will soon change. I also have 2 cars with them and the other cars are with state farm. They let anybody insure with them these days and it has hurt them.

RE: On-board Air Compressors
I use an ARB stand alone dual compressor and air tank in a very nice case. Big cables to attach to any car battery. WORKS GREAT, but spendy.

RE: Need the lowdown on Super C's
My wife has driven all of our RV's. 24' class C, 34' A, 40' DP, 45'DP, 33' super C, 37' 5th wheel and 3 different truck campers. She does prefer interstate only but has done some other roads also. I started her on the small class c and we worked our way up over 26 years.

RE: Need the lowdown on Super C's
I bought a 2018 Nexus Phantom about a year ago. My wife and I had wanted one for a long time, and our family got tired of tent camping. We took it for an 8 week, 10,000 mile trip last summer, towing a Jeep, and it was amazing.
I don't have other RV experience to compare it with, but as a newbie I was comfortable driving it within a week.
I got it for way below list price, and then had a bunch of stuff done to it, and it still came in under your budget.
Part of the trip last summer was a stop at the Nexus plant in Elkhorn for a factory tour, and all I can say is I love my Phantom but envy the Ghosts.
Big change from a tent isn;'t it??

RE: Made some changes
Bedlam, thanks for posting pics. Hope you guys had a great trip coming over from the west coast. It was fun getting to finally meet you.
We started RVing 27 years ago. We always buy used and keep a coach 5 to 6 years. Our first was a 1982 21 foot class c. Kept 5 years until our son was born. Went to a 34 class A, no slides. Kept that for 6 years. I also had a neighbor sell a like new sportsman TC to me for 3K when we owned the Pace Arrow. It was nice for short trips and the kids loved the bunk. Went with a 40 foot DP next, had that for 6.5 years, loved it. Also sold the Sportsman locally for 4K and got the 2000 AF 1150. Next was the 45 foot DP Zephyr. It was OK
but the kids were growing up and heading to college. It really cut into vacation time. After 6 years we sold it and kept the AF. We did grab a 5th wheel a couple years later. Kept it 2 years and sold it for 3K less than I paid for it. We kept the AF 11 years and then traded for the Host. We loved it but my wife wanted more room and likes to walk around while I am driving. She can stretch or even do work out videos while I drive. When Dave at D&H gave me a cash offer I couldn't say no. Although it took me 3 months to decide. Loving the new to us coach. We did better on some deals than others. I wouldn't change anything and all the memories made are worth more than the money!!!! Both of our kids have stated they will RV period and that is important to them and us. I'm sure this will not be our last RV thats for sure. I don't ever want the last RV to come up. I know it will but I hope not for a long time.

Made some changes
I was at D & H during the track camper rally. I was not attending the rally but was trading my rig for a coach. Got to finally meet Bedlam and his wife, very nice. Had a great time talking to both of you. We traded for a 2018 Nexus wraith 32W. We love it. 6.7 cummins, 24.5K GVW, 22.5 tires. I have already weighed it fully loaded, fueled, and ready to go. 4500 lbs under GVW.
I also flat tow my wrangler behind it.
We just got back from a 4500 mile trip to Moab for EJS. Awesome trip and the coach handled the Rockies just as well as I thought it would. No where near our first time going out there.
I love the Host and the truck but we wanted a little more room. I love all RV's and like looking at all of them and will continue to do so.
I will still be lurking on this site because I can't stay away.........

RE: Need the lowdown on Super C's
Bought 2018 Nexus wraith on sat with 11k miles on it. Drove it 550 miles home. Awesome. Compared to my last 2 DP's it drives just as nice. We love it and are leaving tomorrow for Moab, UT and EJS. Towing 20 ft trailer with 19 rubicon in it.

RE: Wife wants to move to a Class A, or C - bigger
Having owned 3 class A's, I say give it a shot. I always flat towed something behind them so we could go anywhere. You might be surprised how comfortable they are. I had 34, 40, and a 45 footer.

RE: Why diesel trucks?
For me. Number one is the exhaust brake. Period. It's all about safety . Everything else is secondary.
Power, hauling ability, MPG, etc. You can't take your money with you when you leave the planet. Might as well spend it.

RE: How useful is a Toad?
I love having my toad behind the truck camper. It comes in handy for many reasons. I don't like to be without it.
