Here's a candidate for some rehab:

http://auburn.craigslist.org/rvs/4513834014.html

The gentleman tells me it runs in reverse but will not pull in forward. He didn't know about the airbags except 'they were a direct replacement for the originals'. From the picture, they hold air. Gent's name is Will, reach him at six 2 two two 5 five zero 1 3 zero in Auburn.

Several Dixielanders live within driving distance of this coach, if someone needs a set of eyes on it. A bit far for me. Goes only in reverse sounds like modulator problem, or fluid. At least, that would be my starting point.

Johnny,

Verizon says that # "...no longer in service".

I sent him an email saying that I have Manny Trannies available for him or
a purchaser -- probably more than he's willing to invest in it, but if
someone buys it they'll have to do something.

I don't know about that 40 grand action (easily) but....

for $2000, if that awning was in good shape, and if the tranny was the only major thing keeping it off the road, and if you had room and time....

if if if if if.....

I wonder how many of you guys talked yourself into a second coach like this? Fortunately, I'm too far from this one.

Well, I or anyone between 85 and Alabama can run over to Auburn and cast an eyeball. I got the email reply yestiddy with the phone number in it. Which I promptly fatfingered. Should be

SIX SIX 2 two 5 five zero one 3 0

Try that, I bet you get him.

You might try "How about a thousand, Yankee money?"
