I'm posting this to highlight the worth of IRV2 and the knowledge that is available. While driving north on 95 yesterday, I realized that Mike Pelchat (Driver) was coming south at a closing rate of about 125 mph, I had my copilot contact him and chatted for a few. About an hpour later I arrived at my destination and found out that my jacks, IP and slideouts wouldn't operate. I contacted Driver who was still going south about 65 mph and he told me that fuse #21 had probably blown ,I replaced it and got the IP to work, still couldnt operate the jacks or slides, called him again and he told me to check the interlock switch on the emergency brake, a wire had come loose I reattached and everything works, I sincerely thank you Mike, and the next time we meet .. Da ribs is on me..... what could have been a costly service call, was accomplished by a dear friend...

Captain Bud, DriVer is a real nice guy, The LEAST he could of done is offer to turn around and come to you aid.
Only give him half "da ribs"

I was coming N on 95 yesterday and I did not see him.

A forum is only as good as it's members. This forum has some really great members! I have learned a lot about RVs from the contributors to this website and a lot about the Workhorse Chassis in particular from DriVer. Thanks to all of you for your sharing of knowledge and experience!
