Nolan Posted October 10, 2015 Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 October 9, 2004 we went full-time RVing. Who would have thought we would still be doing this? Have the same truck, same trailer. Only complain on the truck is the last two summers the mpg average is down 1 mpg. Also some of the long 7% grades do lose speed from 65 mph to 55 mph. On really long grades sometimes 50 mph. If I can get the truck to down shift (auto-shift) to 9th gear then can get the speed back up again. Unless traffic or curves slow us down. The trailer, so far really no big problems. Going to replace the carpet and linoleum if all works out next spring. Still have the original stuff. Personally I still think it looks fine, but the wife wants to change it out. No plans on getting a new or newer truck and trailer. Like what we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alie&Jim's Carrilite Posted October 10, 2015 Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 Replace the boost sensor and see if it helps. Seems to be a common problem after XXXX mileage. Folks like yourself are the inspiration for folks like us, fulltime since 4/13! Jim's Adventures Old Spacecraft.... Who knows whats next Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Greg Posted October 10, 2015 Report Share Posted October 10, 2015 Nolan, at least JoAnn doesn't want to replace you. It is surprising how fast time goes by. Hope to bump into you again sometime.
