I was able to talk to him last night. Super helpful and he's going to dial me in on doing my system.

Never installed the system so now I am going to put it on the coach we just bought. Need to start figuring out what all I need and what needs changed. Coach has lithium batteries now and we will be putting in a residential fridge. Might need more panels and a different controller. I assume a...

Made it back home this morning. Only mishap was a front hubcap that fell off and Jake at Les Schwab is looking into it! Thank you for your hospitality! We had a great time.

In this video at 19:39 they show how all of the floors walls and ceiling are built from country Coach back in the day. Just driving it back the last couple days I can feel how solid this piece of equipment is. Super nice..

2003 country Coach intrigue. 8.9 Cummins ISL with 400 HP and 1200 ft lb. So far on my way back put about 730 mi on it up and down the hills in Idaho and Utah. Pretty neat drivetrain compared to my 3126 cat. 100 more horsepower and 320 more pound feet of torque. Cruises right along at 65 to 70...

So do you leave yours on or shut it off. According to this gal at about 14:20 of the video it is actually illegal in certain cases. I have always had mine on with a propane fridge. I'm not sure my ice cream would make it from Phoenix to glamis shut off for 4 hours. LOL.

Wife and I subscribed. Very interested.

How fast do you think this would flat-tow 5000 lb behind it? Going up and down some of the bigger hills.

Do you have some interior pictures. What is the tow rating for this coach? I'm still sort of leaning towards a dually and a weekend warrior le3505 or le3305. But flat towing a 5000 lb truck behind a motorhome is still an option for us.

My motorhome empty on that grade starts to overheat and I have to shift down and run the RPM above 2000 to keep it cool.

:p

Dry weight on my current motorhome is around 23,000. I remember weighing the entire rig and it was I think around 28,500 lb.

I now have a 99 tradewinds 36 foot with a 3126 cat. 300 horsepower. I tow my Funco on an open trailer which weighs total I would guess around 4,500 lb. From Phoenix to the dunes is mostly flat ground so towing is not a problem. Driving this motor home from Phoenix to San Diego with no trailer it...

A little research shows a late model crew cab half ton Chevy truck can be flat towed with the transmission and transfer case in neutral. Looks like those trucks weigh around 5000 lb. Instead of a dually crew cab truck and a toy hauler what about a pusher capable of pulling a pickup flat towed...
