cruise control
While wandering around a salvage yard today I came across a Rostra Cruise
servo unit. Bought it for $5 and always being curious I opened it up. I
know that some of you have this unit so if you wondered what was inside,
have a look!

Ed and Peggy,

I have pictures of all the breaker layouts. (Just have to find them) I
have them printed and in the BB Book. I will try to assemble them into a
PDF file so they will print easily and post them on the site or get John to
do it. Yahoo and I don't always seem to get along.



Where are you located? Now that I am retired I want to try and meet some of
the "folks".

> chuck again thanks for the circuit breaker layout and the naming of
what each does.i have only had to worry with those breakers one time
and it was sort of easy to find what i was looking for.the layout you
provided will surley make it easy the next time i need to fine
something. yes i would like to get the lay out of the other breaker
panels in my bus. it is a rear bath model and may be somewhat
different than yours but everthing and anything helps when you are in
trouble.
you asked where we are located and that would be lake charles,
louisian, the riverboat gambling center in la. we have 5 riverboats
and one horse racing track. we live off of the I-210 loop not 1 mile
from one of the gambling joints. we dont gamble but sure do like
their good food.
we will be up in texas in may. dates are 25th--28th. we will be
staying at a place callled hidden cove park marina. its on lake
lewisville off of hackberry creek park road. if you are up that way
we would be glad to meet and feed you. have a nice day,drive safe and
may god bless you and yours.

In the past I had a very unhappy experience with Rostra and had decided never to
do business with them again.

BUT-I ran across Mike at MNR electronics. They supplied a Rostra unit to my
mechanic and he and Mike worked tirelessly to get the unit installed. No phone
call was ignored or unanswered by Mike.

Now have a cruise that works like a charm. Tried it on stretches of steep hills
and straight stretches.

Anyway dealing with Mike keeps one away from the Rostra Company people and he is
just great as is my mechanic.

Cost of parts and labor totals less than cost of a King unit. If you have a
vintage bird you probably need a cruise. Might want to try them.

Mike can be reached at 800-343-1382. Email- Mail@MNR Electronics.com
