I hate to repeat myself, but here goes. There's nothing wrong with an aluminum radiator. I'd love to have one. however, the radiator I have is repairable for a lot less than what a new one costs. It's simply a matter of economics. Those of you that have one had the money to buy one. I don't. I must work with what I have to work with. No credit cards, no bank loans. What is spent comes after the necessities of life are paid for.I will also be putting my coach to different use than most here. My coach will likely never go anywhere that it can't go to on a full tank, round trip. We will also be spending a lot more time in ours than most of you will. Chances are that no one in this forum will ever see it at a rally (Rally fees buy a lot of groceries). Most spend more on their coaches in a month than we live on in a month(We're both disabled & on SSDI). If things change down the road & I can get a new radiator, I will. Right now, if mine can be repaired, it
will be. My list is too long & my time & money are too short to do otherwise. I appreciate the advise, but I'll take it on advisement as to what & when I do it. Hopefully in a month or 2 the coach will be repaired to the point that it is usable, but it'll never be in a car show or a magazine. It's not meant to be. It's meant to be our retirement home. This coach is no hobby to us. You don't have to agree with what I'm doing. Only Carol & I have to. So thank you for all the advise I have received here, but don't get too upset if I don't follow it.I can only do what funds allow.
