I'm new to the forum. I just bought a 1990 Beaver Marquis 40' motorhome with a Cat 3208 diesel engine. I've owned travel trailers before but this is my first motorhome and my first diesel engine. I've been reading the manuals trying to get a better understanding about this diesel engine and the air brake system and all the other things that are new to me. I'm sure as I go along I will have questions and hopeful some of you can help me find the answers. Looking forward to being part of the group.

Welcome to IRV2! We're sure glad you joined the gang !

Congrats on the new DP! It's a scary feeling at first, but you'll soon get comfortable with it! Enjoy the forum!

Good luck, happy trails, and God bless!
