Roadside assistance

[Tom Warner]

I thought about this Howard and after reading of some peoples post on
the internet of going to veggie oils and other concoctions to burn in
their diesels and adding transmission fluids to their diesel fuel
"for lubrication" (which by the way is not recommended by DD ) , and
not performing yearly preventative maintenance on their coaches, I
can understand where coach-net is coming from.

It gets expensive towing a large motorhome to a garage and then the
mechanic finding out the Racor is plugged with algae or sludge (been
there done that this year), or finding out the transmission went out
because the fluids were low or the filters not changed, or the coach
had an engine fire because someone rewired a gadget in their coach
that did not meet the national electrical codes.
What concerns me is that this is a large loophole for coach-net. Will
they start giving guidance to the tow agency and mechanic working on
the motorhome to look for these possible problems and then one of us
getting stuck with a really large towing bill?
