Hi, My Husband and I just purchased a 1976 Birchaven a couple of months ago. Where we are in Illinois there is a Mechanic from the Old School who knows about working on a GMC Motorhome as he worked on them back in the 70s when they were under warranty. I took it to him before we Purchased it so he could tell me everything that was wrong and to make sure we had him to work on it. We are Seniors who can do No Mechanical Work ourselves and are worried about going on any long trips because we are concerned if we do happen to have a breakdown - how do we find someone who knows what they are doing. We can't have it towed all the way back home. We talked to an elderly gentleman a few weeks ago that took his to a Chevy Garage and after paying thousands to get it fixed - it is in worse shape then when he took it in. . . I also read on the forum about the couple in the same boat we are that had his towed to a Chevy Garage and was there 6 days. We don't want this to happen and we know you have to have a Mechanic who knows what they are doing. I know there is the Black List & that most GMC Motorhome Owners work on their own Coaches which we cannot do. Is there any Lists of Mechanics that know how to work on them if you have to be towed?
