Maybe LP odor?

I too had unpleasant odors in the coach intermittently for several months. Being a motorhome newbe, I did not know exactly where the problem was. After reading this forum, I started running some water into the bathroom sink to keep that "P" trap full - problem solved!

THANK YOU THOR FORUMS!

I sure learned a lot in this process, but the most peculiar thing is that some LP gas is not perfumed which leaves it smelling a lot like sewer fumes. So I bought a "sniffer" which should be in any RVer's tool box. No gas leaks but a lot of peace of mind.

The number one problem on my Vegas 24.1 is the inadequate suspension/steering of the Ford E-350 chassis which has cost me $2k to correct.

The handling aside, in my first 18 months of ownership I have had very few problems with the coach that I could not remedy myself and the rest were all readily fixed by my Thor dealer.

Sure, there is some shoddy workmanship because they are in too big of a hurry to keep costs down and depend on the dealers to correct defects. With the exception of the suspension upgrades, I am happy with my purchase and hope the horror stories on this forum represent a very small percentage of the RV public.
