Actually had a call from a "Steve" from Spartan Chassis today, wanting to speak to me about the hitch failure.

Little did I expect to stay on hold for an eternity when I returned his call and then be asked to leave a voicemail, NEVER having spoken to anyone...

Push 2 for this.....1 for that...."sorry we're really busy"....leave a message.

I'll wait for them to call ME back....Hitch is fixed and that's good enough for me.

Oh, Something interesting while driving around the Spartan plants. Among the many special army issue "V" bottom vehicles, I noticed 6 or so rear rad pusher chassis's all with righthand drive. Must be for export to the U.K. or Austrailia.

I guess y'all didn't see the press release on Spartan's web site about these right hand drive vehicles.

The Post Office has ordered these for rural mail delivery in snow country.

I heard they were for the "golf cart lady" in Florida, maybe she will have better luck parking rigs.

So Peter, maybe I missed it but I was hoping for a rundown of what all Spartan did for your coach besides the axle and fan upgrade.

What did they say about reprogramming your engine brake and fan drive? Or are you being sly as a fox and not telling due to "liability" issues?
