    Hurricane Helene

    I’m just glad I drove from Nashville through Asheville when I did. I-40 TN/NC border is gone. EDIT to include photo.

    RV friendly Cummins Recommendation

    I wouldn’t recommend it at this particular location. Not a great area and a little tight. I chose to drive 15 mins to Concord and stay Camping World Racing Resort.

    RV friendly Cummins Recommendation

    @sheridany My DEF was good; my DEF head, not so much. Spartan overnighted a new one and it is being installed as I write this message. Then Cummins will do 6 ECM updates. Then I’ll be on the road again 🎼 Safe, happy travels everyone.

    Alert Serpentine belt failures

    The tech said that the belts stretch. @Kevin D Pem not sure why they chose to put this belt on. Will ask in April when I go in for service.

    RV friendly Cummins Recommendation

    By the time I made it to Magne Shade in Mocksville, NC (getting coach lasered to be fitted with their awesome floor mats), I got a Check Engine light and DEF Sensor Failure. Checking codes, I only have one so far SPN 3364 FMI 11 so should make it to Cummins. Speaking of Cummins, I called the...

    RV friendly Cummins Recommendation

    I use boxed DEF too. I had about ½ tank and then was parked in Nashville for 5 nights with temps in 90’s. I don’t know if that has anything to do with anything, but I had no problems when I was in cooler temps. I added more DEF hoping that would make it better. The warning continued to come on...

    Question Belt for A/C compressor?

    @Neemer I don't know if this helpful to you, but I asked a question on Newmar Owners Group FB page, as I'm trying to make sure I have spare parts for a trip to Alaska next year. I received the following information from Joe Midolo in response to my question. "On the Cummings if you lose your...

    Where were you with your NEWMAR today?

    I am somewhere I bet no one has ever been before. 🤣 I couldn't get into Two Rivers and after dealing with hot tire temps and DEF contamination warnings, I pulled into a new park....Forest Grove RV Resort in Dandridge, TN. It is large and kids are probably going to love this place. It is a lot...

    Engine Brake in Traffic

    Well, I learned something new yesterday as I traveled I-40 in the blistering heat of Tennessee in terrible traffic. Do not use your air brakes as it will heat the tires up fast. Turn your engine brake on high. Yes, that is what Spartan told me as I panicked when my drive axle and tag tire temps...

    Alert Serpentine belt failures

    I seal vac them with my food saver too! lol Big Mike (Spartan) told me to that 7 years ago when I first started out. So yes, 2 fan belts with a perfect cut. Because the alignment was off the belt would walk up the pulley and it would make a perfect straight line cut down the belt. Luckily, I...
