Bad trip
#1

Left a week ago Friday for Grand Canyon. Going great till 3 hours from flagstaff stacker trailer blows the airline and the air suspension on it deflates and we have to pull over . As we are fixing that with a new hose, the generator overheats , the blower fan has gone out, limp the last 3 hours to Williams az with no ac , outside temp 101.. Get to williams sat night plug in, goto Grand Canyon Sunday. Run to electrical supply place Monday morn in flagstaff find a motor come back and replace it. Runs great generator cool leave williams for Zion national park via Las Vegas. As we are driving thru Vegas the generator overheats again. Find a grainger in Vegas pull into their parking lot at 4 pm. The auxiliary cooling fan that blows air over the generator is out too. Replace it. Get to Zion river rv resort at 9 pm. Pull into site, none of the slides will deploy . Call valid 24 hours out line , trouble shoot it hit a release valve and they all work.

Leave Zion Thursday drive to silverton colorado. Get halfway up severe grade and coach won't pull the 20k plus load (Mazda mx-5 and hammer and rzr) unload cars drive them in seperate. Coach now makes it easily. Get to silverton and put out slides and number 3 floor won't come up. Call valid again they do a "force" and it comes up.

Well Ill be home tomorrow. Trip was great but thought I'd share my issues.. Lol
