Just returned from another four day outing to Anchor Bay, CA. The Highway 1 coastal road is a great vista for the Pacific ocean and the best for finding your tolerance for curves. (Road not women, OK some surfers are great) The coach ran perfectly, even on in low gear uphill behind a loaded tanker semi truck. The water gauge did not even get to normal (72* weather with fog). Since I installed the Derale transmission oil cooler and the aluminum radiator the motor has been running smooth. NO VAPOR LOCK ! Yeah!
This annual visit to the campground, with about 10 other families, is always a blast. Lots of fishing and abalone diving leads to lots of awesome eats and great evening fun (adult beverage included).

Nick,

An excellent report - we'll have to try it sometime. I'd bet we could flood the list with all the "boring" uneventful trips we take in our coaches. At least those of us who have 'em running!
