Been a great trip with only a couple hiccups on generator shutting off while driving late afternoon after short stops for fuel. I'm thinking its overheating issues as we haven't had it since in cooler weather.

I highly highly recommend the ECT tuner from 5 star tuning. The shift patterns for tranny make a massive difference plus you get a little more HP & TQ. She's pulled this 8K lbs plus cargo trailer like a dream over the hills and passes while holding the gear without downshifting unless you give it more gas trying to maintain speed.

Thanks! How long had you been driving with the generator when you encountered that? Planning on making our trips about 300-400 miles a day with some variance depending on where we want to stop. This is my first class C, had a TT prior and I'm looking forward to the adventure... Loved the floor plan of the 31E too much to pass it up. Appreciate the heads up and link for the tuner. I had already installed a hard wired EMS and was thinking about Tire Pressure monitoring next. I'm always in the market for more HP and TQ tho!
