Driving in snow
Have read the other comments gardner and the FC models do NOT drive
like a school bus. Big difference in the suspension and the weight distribution. My 1982 FC 35 for instance had 265 gallons of fuel over the rear wheels in addition to a lot of other stuff distributed throughout the coach. I travelled in some really nasty weather one winter thru Pennsylvannia, trucks in the ditch, really really bad. I was amazed at how well it not only drove but never slipped a wheel. Finally stopped at a Walmart, closed up and slept as snug as bugs in a rug all night. Next day just kept on going. Amazing machines and nothing in my opinion to worry about. tom warner vernon center, 1985 PT 40 At 08:51 PM 12/6/2006, you wrote: > I plan trip this weekend and may run into a little light snow.
