This is a good start per my suggestion to Casey at Newmar Hoots. Newmar needs to invest in a YouTube Tech Channel so that people can go back at any time and study the systems. Those of us that went through the 5 day FPU years ago know the firehose and the retention of "our generation" which is approximately 4 minutes! Each system such as OASIS, GEN, Wet bay, Electrical/Inverter, etc. could be its own YouTube video. And per coach with different systems. Yes, it's a lot and will take time, but in the end it will drastically reduce their phone support of non stop repeat questions like we see on Facebook groups daily.

YouTube Training on Coach Systems

Newmar - consider an extensive training series on your coaches and post on YouTube. YouTube is one of the greatest resources available to all these days and is outstanding for training. I see numerous posts on various platforms such as Facebook groups where people are extremely uneducated on how...

This does look interesting and I have inquired about attending when we are there for maintenance in Aug.

Since we are full time and I do all of the maintenance / repairs that I can myself, it may be a good investment.

The fact that is on your coach is a nice touch as well.

We try to attend some type of RV training every year or so. This year we are headed to Spartan for chassis training course. Good fun and learning is very helpful to avoid Operator Induced Errors.

Unless someone attends before I do, will be attending the August class. It is the week before we are scheduled for service to get a few things taken care of.

Will post my thoughts etc after the class.

It is structured mostly for the “big boys”. I would be interested to know if the cover much with regards to gas coaches.

While I’m there I’ll ask if / when they plan to extend to all coaches.
