    your APU input please

    Excellent feedback. Points taken. My sleeper is only 84"and I have always been solo, so one TV will do! Ha. Just came out of Quebec again and it is lots of fun with no apu! Thanks Lenny (Must drive - kids eat ferociously)

    your APU input please

    A new Thermoking Tripac for $9975 (installed) or a used unit with 5000 hours for $5500 (installed) with no warranty. Or maybe a slightly used Onan diesel 7500 watt with a rooftop AC and new Espar bunk heater, but what about engine heating? How adequate is an oil pan heater V. Water flow from APU...

    Ford van electrical/alternator/starter problems

    Please excuse me as I will try to explain it as best as I can without knowing all the relevant technical lingo. On the firewall, just below the hood are two wires that come from the big electrical connectors(the one's that come through the wall behind the pedals) and run, if I remember...

    Ford van electrical/alternator/starter problems

    If you still have a problem with voltage let me now. I had a very similar and unique problem with one of my E350's that no mechanic could find, but I did with alot of luck. Hope your problem is solved though.

    Advice please

    Yip, although the cube is a great truck around the city and open road, it is an odd ball to get work for. I have stopped for 10 hours in Kentucky in the heat and it was miserable in the back of the box. No need in building a sleeper if I cannot get work for it. I have always driven class 8...
