Actually we're in Tempe AZ tonight. None of the problems I've had have been major. Just stupid stuff like replacing the driveshaft to avoid changing a part. My limited skid differential makes noise when turning tight. Again Ford, instead of putting in the Ford rear end friction modifier fluid...

Got my load to Tempe AZ delivered early this afternoon. After that long of a drive and the heat here, I got myself a room. When you have a week that more then doubles your weekly revenue goals, you can afford a few luxuries.

Got my selling dealer, while I was sitting there to pick it up, to throw in a maintainable package and the highest mileage extended warranty. So I'm in warranty to 125,000 miles.

My guibo is bad. It's also being fixed on warranty. Funny story, it's like a $50 part. Ford won't authorize the replacement under warranty! But, they approved changing out the entire drive shaft assembly. So I'm getting all new U joints, CV joints and a new guibo. Stupid!

Got my weekend whale on board. On my way to Tempe AZ. 1,890 miles. I love being busy over the weekends. Thanks CRE!

And I found free camping outlets here.

I brought this Elkhart load up from Charlotte NC. Was a 12 hour drive overnight.

I'm also getting the shudder at certain throttle pressures and speeds. Tech says it's the torque converter clutch. Getting a fluid flush, see if that helps! Right now I'm still under warranty, but I'd much rather not break the factory seal by putting in a converter. Shudder started when running...

Empty in Elkhart. Waiting for my weekend whale now.

Empty in Elkhart. Am I allowed to be here?? lol

Got this in my email from Harbor Freight. It a cheap way to get started.

Yup, Tim's ready to get back out after his appointments last week.

LIKE, will stay north.

Need a few more hours here. Dropped van for oil change and tire rotation. Having coffee and breakfast with my wife now. Van should be done and loaded by about noon.

I think Generac is going to give Honda a good run. $280 less dollars!

That would be the best spot too for renting electric outlets. Keep all the generators from running all day and night. Outlets out front where the vans park. Won't take big spots away like when some of us use the Idle Aire.

Sitting at the Walmart in Attleborough, MA. Hoping to get out today or I'll start the long ride home.

You do know that Ford dealers will price match?

My dealer said the exact same thing. Oversize tires will affect the ABS and the stability control built into this van. Then of course they tried to sell me a set of Hankooks! LOL

My dealer recommended doing the flush over dropping the pan. Dropping the pan requires dropping frame pieces, as WOM said. Plus dropping the pan won't change the fluid sitting inside the torque converter. They said it doesn't really have a replaceable filter, just a wire mesh screen inside...
