I just received my annual note from Holland Motor Homes. They said
that tthey are the new midwest dealer for Newell coaches.
At the end of the letter that John Dykstra signed there is this P.S.

" We have made a special purchase on Blue Bird Wanderlodge
windshields, coolant pumps, air filters, headlight lenses, and
solenoids. We also offer a technical service for people looking for
answers on hard to solve Wanderlodge issues. The consultation is
$50.00 for 15 minutes-- you read this as I read it--and you would
initially speak with Mike Muelenberg, our service manager. Then you
and he can decide whether you needf to consult with one of our Blue
Bird technicians"



GIVE ME A BREAK-- We offer that same service here for FREE and we
have the knowledge base to stand behind it.



MY, My, what will happen next?

$200 per hour? Wait until you see the parts prices. At that rate we can machine our parts as needed, if necessary.

Ernie, just last night I was telling my wife that we should buy all the
old bird records before they disappear. Also thought about a Co-op of
all the forum members, and then load all the information on PDF files
and put it in a password section for all owners to use. When Alpine
went out of business, just up the road from me in Yakima WA, they
auctioned off everything in these goofy lots.

Marty, one of the most knowledgeable individuals about birds, electrical systems and mechanical systems is our own Ralph Fullenwider. Between his ability to diagnose a problem and my ability to get in tight areas, we can fix just about anything on these coaches.

Got the extra clock parts and they have been intalled on the clock the problem was the second hand dial was in three pieces ":the shaft, the nut, and dial" that was what I had when I saw the nut that you sent the secoond time it went togerther like simple as pie. But I was a little flustered
trying to get that wassher that is the center of the second hand to screw down on the shaft that was too big. Clock looks great works great and 100 satisfaction on theis end have a nice day!!!!

I admire any business that state a price. Lawyers, doctors,
accountants & engineers sell the same product Holland peddels
here. $50. and 15 min with a good tech can save you many 'dollars
and hours' of 'tuition and effort'. I believe if someone charges for
advice they should compensate for errors and omissions.
