Thank you. I did find lots of info online, but info from a human is still the best. I normally go to the camp sites, but expedite usually takes me past the Hocking Hills area under dispatch. Sent from my GT-P5210 using EO Forums mobile app

Good morning, We camp around the lakes every year, but have decided to try the Hocking Hills area in Ohio in August. Can anyone recommend the best camping park in the area. I know someone on this forum must know the best spots! Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Thanks for the input. I also think it will be better to tie in. I keep a close eye on my hoses as I twice before had to fix leaks next to the road with serious blow outs. Five gallons of water and a couple of burn marks and I made it to my deliveries on time. I do have shut off valves and can...

I have always used my truck block heater to warm my engine block/water for about two hours before starting my truck. With the harsh winter we are experiencing this winter, I am considering having my Onan generator cooling system tied into my truck engine water system, with a thermostat to...

Needless to say, the problem went away right after I did this post and will probably stick its ugly neck out at a very inconvenient time in the future.

I will check on intake area. I know you are well invested, in the form of a new engine recently? ha. I will certainly make my findings known to you all. Thanks again.

Thank you Bob and Dave. These are very valid points and I will have it checked.

Here is a challenge for all. I have a Freightliner M2 106 with the 260hp Mercedes. About a year ago I started having starting problems. This happened in both warm and cold weather. I replaced filters, checked wires and did everything possible. Some tech on the internet suggested I replace the...

Don't do it. You won a long time ago! Unless you already do, incorporate some exercise into your daily routine. That will make you feel better physically and help fight those urges. You do not have to workout for hours. Simply doing a lap around the truck stop parking lot every time you take a...

Thanks for the info.

Someone mentioned a number of $19,000 the other day and another couple on the forum spent, from what I heard, $29,000 on the bigger Mercedes recently. I am at 500,00 and going strong, but are thinking of trying to find a spare with low mileage hidden in some obscure barn to keep for future use...

Just came across this bulletin to dealers in 2005. ( www.ddcsn.com/cps/rde/xbcr/ddcsn/6-MBE900-05.pdf ) I do not know if this explains any of your replacement gasket problems, but thought I would post info anyway. Regards

A speedy recovery to your wife. I was caught in the tornado on I81, VA in front of the Petro truck stop last year. My truck was slightly damaged, but I was fine. I had to notify Fedex as I was under dispatch, and no one could move. It was dark with powerlines and chaos everywhere. Anyway...

These trucks are Fedex DD trucks and only run in the Midwest. The driver I spoke to said his owner (from Ohio) bought 70 of these from Penske or Ryder and have 10 on the road thus far. The one I saw had a really nice sleeper added in the front/back of the box and joins through to the cab. They...

The DOT number has not changed.

My truck got the new decals a week ago, including new "Custom Critical" decals on both sides and small ones on the bottom of each door. The DOT and IL CC numbers are new though. I am very pleased that the box got a white layer before the new decals as it makes it all look brand new again...

Mine reads SWB-A12-19777-003 and not 203, but I assume they are the same. I bought the left one yesterday, installed it today, did not work (being the wrong one), reinstalled the old to return it for the correct one after reading this thread, put it on the ground, moved the truck forward 5 feet...

Thanks for all the input. Installed my new Espar and its working great. Will not have to put my coffee water in the fridge to prevent freezing! Onan arriving tomorrow and rooftop will be dealt with during the next few weeks. Would love to have Don Benz built me an enclosure. Will get a quote. I...

Thermoking wants $2500 to install a used Tripac. There are used ones out there for $2500 - $3500. Bob in Missouri will do for about $1500, but says that there are always parts missing that add about another $1000. I can do myself, as I normally do all my mechanical work and have the experience...

I was considering waiting, but I saved for a new unit, so I might as well go ahead and do it all at the same time. Will take a final look at the Onan before deciding. Would I have to install the Onan in a cabinet or just straight on brackets to the chassis?
