I'm repeating this because I pirated a more important thread; to correct an
error I published; and, to report updated information:

To counteract the predominance of "doom & gloom" here, I now wish we'd
posted all the trip reports here that we have gotten on our
"Save-the-GA-Sun-17" Google Group. Of 14 GMC's from all over at Dillard
GA, most have now made it home without incident. One had a fan clutch fail
(and quickly replaced) on the way down from NJ. Another, with 3 small kids
aboard, had Onan, and consequent A/C, failure on the way from Birmingham.
AFAIK, no one else had any trouble at all.

I automatically posted "Onan" as a generic Auxiliary Power Unit (APU)
nomenclature -- the actual failure was of a HONDA 4010/6010. That's not a
typo; it seems that there are only minor differences between the two models
and the one under discussion is a hybrid of the two. And the source of
endless troubles. The owner may tell us all more about it, but he swore to
me that after this trip, in AL & GA heat, with a wife, 3 small kids ( who
all gave up their bike training wheels at Dillard), and a dog with NO A/C,
the Honda is coming OUT.

Since the original posting, I think I've heard from all the others who were
at Dillard with us -- all home without problems. So much for unreliable
GMC's.
