Aside from that, it went great!

My wife tells me to fix the Hydro Hot and I'm not allowed to sell it.

Jury is still out.

Evening Muteys!

Well Barb and I are hold up in a motel room with our fur children till Thursday when we get our Jenny back from the Cummins Hospital. After going toe to toe with Good SAMs about their refusal to cover my repairs, I'm reluctantly stuck with a pretty sizable bill leaving me wondering if extended warranties are what I thought they were good for. To make matters worse, when I cranked up the generator for the first time after having CW service it last Saturday, it ran 30 seconds and shut down. Error msg. said low oil pressure so I check and what?....no oil??? It's blown out on the ground under the Genset...gggrrrrrrr. Now I'm ready to whip somebody! CW and I will be having a not so nice conversation on Thurs. after I make a large donation to the Cummins Hospital. Soooo, words of warning.... Stay away from CW in Denton Tx!

Lovely, Les. Makes me quite green-eyed! What a beautiful setting to be sharing with family and a friend. Memories all 'round!

Cheers!
Sue

Oh man! I would not want to get in your way on Thursday!

Best of luck with that fight. I'm really sorry this shadow had to fall on your rainbow. We get these rigs so we can enjoy them, enjoy the journey, and enjoy our new experiences. This is one set of experiences we don't bargain for.

Steering clear of CW in Denton ... and maybe elsewhere too, as much as possible.

All the best,
Sue

It rained good for a few minutes each of the first few days. But sunny and stinkin hot the rest of the time.
The Beavers maiden voyage was good with the exception of my Hydro hot system. Not enough hot water! Something else to fix that I'm sure will be in the 4 figures like anything else! Bah!!!

Sheesh!
Les and Herb, if I could send ohms that would heal MHs, I surely would. Hope you both come out the other end of the pipe clean and not broke, aye?

I mean, SHEESH!

So sorry to hear of the problem. BTW, what is the problem? Where they able to analyze it and come up with a solution for repair?

I do feel your pain. Been there many a time with Citrus.

What are you talking about. Oh! Darn! You quoted me. I can't hide.

Wayne apparently the water pump went out the thermostat fried and an electronic heat sensor went bad and that effected something with the emissions system that is also being replaced. The water pump was covered but applies to my deductible and the rest is not covered at all. I didn't realize nothing with emissions is covered and that was the most expensive part to fix. Oh well. Hopefully we can still leave by Friday.
