Like you I can do a lot of the repairs and corrective actions myself and will continue to do that until the body says stop - oil changes, battery stuff and plumbing and water issues I'll handle - until the issue gets more expensive then the dealer run and the deductible - then it goes in. The chassis and engine stuff goes to the Freightliner guys in Raleigh right away and they are fantastic - get you in, get it done and get you out.

My new take on this Easter morning is to accept what I can't change - Mfg quality and I'm going to try to post corrective actions or upgrades that might help others. Yes I will still have issues I'm sure, but seeing others having the same issue does not fix the quality or the problem. I'm sure Thor looks at this site and if not, shame on them, but we can't rebuild these units we have.

We bought what we bought, and have what we have fair? NOPE, but we could all stop RVing and quit enjoying the amazing journeys we take or not connect with incredibly smart and helpful friends that we are making as we use this site and travel the roads of this country. Breakdowns will occur and I will be frustrated with Thor and every component manufacturer but I'm still out there enjoying nature and time with my wife and new friend we meet! Hopefully we will all show up at a rally and toast to our good fortune of having the ability to have and use these units! I'm not going back to a TENT!

Lovely attitude! Happy Easter!
