Bounder: 2006 Bounder. What to know?

[rdalcanto]

My neighbors are new to RVing, and just bought a Gas 2006 Bounder with about 9,000 miles. I would like to help them start on the right foot. What chassis is that on? Ford?Anything important to know, like brake recalls?

Tires are dated 3305, so I already recommended new tires as we don't know anything about how those tires were maintained.

I think they probably also need to bleed the brakes, flush the engine coolant (chassis and generator), flush the transmission fluid, change engine oil (chassis and generator).
Anything to add or delete from my list?
The "house" looks good with no evidence of delamination on quick inspection.
Thanks,
Rick

If its gas , it could be Ford or Workhorse. If the latter , you'll want to verify if the brake recall was done. Also the refrigerator has had recalls that need to be checked. Fuel filter is another maintenance item to be done.

Hope he joins IRV2 and checks into the Fleetwood forum among others.

HIs model should be noted since some came on the small chassis that had lower weight capacity and 19 in a half inch wheels instead of the big 22 inch wheels

I stepped outside and checked. Looks like his is a 32W with 19.5 inch wheels.
