  This is one thread I should have stayed out of.  Enjoy the ride! Safe and happy Bussin to all. 

      I appreciate your perspective and the fact that you shared your experiences, Bob.  I also have had no problems with WM (limited amount of times stayed) but it's good to know that other people have seen a range of different things.  I'll be keeping my eyes open a bit more in the future, and that's valuable.  Thanks.

Something is wrong here TomC the Prevost with the DDEC 8v92 with a 755 transmissions got around 5 and 6 mpg the newer ones with the 14L smog engines get 5 and 6 mpg with the 6 speed World transmission they were around 7 + before the EGR engines I love the Prevost guys they tell it like it is

Hemphill tells me the way the entertainers buses are pushed at 75mph they are are 5 mpg tops with series 60 or the D13 Volvo engine

Is it possible that the dash gauge is reading low and the governor is the problem?

Don Fairchild, (Clean Cam Technology Systems in Bakersfield, CA), modifies the 2 stroke DDs to comply to California emissions standards. Look it up.

Bob, you bring up a good point. There are some WM we wouldn't stay at. I can remember two that we pulled into, then decided to move on.

However, we stay at a BUNCH of WM in cool weather. If we need to run the AC we will usually find a CG, if there is one that is close and easy. We have never had a time where anybody bothered us. Sure see some interesting and strange things there for sure. Of course, we always try to park under a light. There are some WM's that I won't go into shop until morning, because of the area. Even though I don't look like easy pickings, I still like to exercise common sense.

YMMV

Brian,

I had one fail, lucky for me was covered under warranty.

Pull the stator off and you will be able to tell by the side to side movement on the rotor.

You don't want to have a full failure, mine ate the stator and rotor.

Not hard to replace, just a pain in the A$$.

We always stay WM the wife will not spend the bucks for a camp ground,on this trip to TX we spent the night in Deming NM at the W/M security patrolled the area all night never know what one sees at WM in the way of RV there was a guy there with his wife and 2 grand kids in a new Newell

 I was talking to him about looking out of place in the rig parked at W/M for the night he laughed and said how do think I afford this rig it's sure not by spending 50 to 100 bucks a night at a KOA as he said he was not a tight wad just conservative very nice guy had no problems letting people look at his pride and joy

I forgot to ask, is this setup for 120 VAC  or 120/240 VAC, if the 120/240 setup, I would be looking very close at the neutral line and would not be surprised if when the voltage drops, it goes up the same amount on the other leg.

We dont stay in wallmarts to often, but have stayed at the one in Casper WY a few times and have been suprised be how many cars will be parked around us in the am, big empty parking lot and i have had as many as 10 cars parked around us with people sleeping in them, just think its kind of strange.
