6.28.21-Sat

We’ve just completed another 300-miles on our Littleton trip. The miles and hours traveling over I-95 through South Carolina brought some things to light. First the coach is not perfect, not even the brand new ones selling for tens-of-thoushands of dollars more than we paid are either. They all come with their share of flaws. A very annoying rattle, like wood beating on metal was emminating from the front dash area. After many minutes of pondering I blamed it on the shade screen and night shade that hang at the top of the front windshield. We use the shade screen to block out the heavy sun and the night shade for privacy in the evening. In each shade at the bottom of each is a wooden rod for additional weight for the shade. The poor conditions of the SC I-95 caused that rod to vibrate within the metal runners on either side of the shade. Next, behind Carla’s chair above her head is a wooden cabinet containing the satelite, Wi-Fi, Dish Satelite receivers and DVD equipment. These metal components sitting on metal shelves I think were causing some of the other annoying sounds as we rumbled through South Carolina. I’ll have an update after our next bumpy road condition.
