RIV Report?

[Ross]

Hi,
You're right that CCW is really not completely responsible. Hindsite-
A 20,000 lbs front axle would have corrected the 450 LXi problems
without moving the generator and doing other modifications . It would
also have given the new Wanderlodge a great CCC and allowed the gennie
to stay up front on a slide-out.(no slide out on the modifications or
in the new coach ). BB should have picked up that tab (CCW should have
pushed that and helped)
