Dorn, Maybe this is obvious but the one thing I wouldn't do at this
point is to drive into the shop with a list of all the things it
needs and tell'm to fix it. I'd drive it a little while and watch
and evaluate it. I would not fix anymore then what you have to for
right now. Certainly don't fool with the air conditioning at this
time. I might get the heaters working and the shore power situation
sorted out and let it go at that until you get some miles on it. The
other fellows on the list here have been wonderfully helpful to me
and perhaps some of these repairs you could tackle with a little help
from your friends. Just a suggestion.
