Gary if you buy a tuner make sure you get one that is specifically for your engine. Not all Durmax are the same. My PPE gave me excellent horsepower but no more MPG. I am understanding if you want the best of both worlds you need to remove the smog and do some work on the exhaust. There is a place near WACO that my son deals with that does this type of work for about 800 and he says they guarantee another 5 mpg and much better power. Ron comments as I know you have done some work in this area. Dane

Just returned Middlebury having the slides fixed. The did a superb job if it will hold. Both slides were readjusted to fix out of alignment and popping issues. Then the stripes were out of line so went to paint to fix those issues and also got touchup pain.

I will tell you that Troy Boontrager has a great repair facility and is reasonable as well. He worked at Jayco for over 10 years and does everything in the repair area as well as new interiors. I highly recommend him.

The new Seneca should be out in May or June and are testing along with the manfacuring process now. Hope everyone had a chance to view the pic we posted.

Hope do not have to make that trip again in the near future. Diesel here is 2.65 and was 4.19 there in many places. Tennessee was the best price on the road at 3.39 at one place.

Duane, to get diesel at the price you must be filling up at a farmer's private supply of non-tax paid fuel. :)

BTW - is it Boontrager or Bontrager. Sounds to me like he was part of the family that owns Jayco. Do you know if that is the case?

Glad they got you fixed up and hope you don't have to go back. Did you stay in the MH each night or did they spring for a hotel like they did for us in 2008?

Don I had an Army buddy in the area we stayed with. It is Bontrager and may be related but do not think so. He is really good. Diesel Ha I am a farmer (smile) Dane

If you think the fuel price is high in Cal. Do not buy fuel in Washington.

We have no choice we have to go through Wash. Oh. well add a few more dollars to the fuel bill. Probably still cheaper than in B.C.

Where in Mesa are you staying. We are planning to be there either on Saturday or Sunday depending on the "Caves at Sonora". We are planning on staying at Valle de Ore on S Ellsworth. Maybe we can hook up for lunch or supper.
