Topic: What Did You Do To Your Class B Today ?

Posted By: Fastpaddler on 07/26/13 08:34pm

Spent the entire day thoroughly cleaning out the PW Plateau due to a mouse or mice having a winter holiday inside. Is there something we can put inside to dissuade them from climbing up the wheels and sneaking in?

Flushed the tanks, sanitized, added Calgon and filled up the black and gray with fresh water. Put about a cup of bleach into the fresh tanks. Then, drove down to the carwash and cleaned the exterior of all the grime and bugs we picked up after two weeks of boondocking in Northern New Mexico's Carson National Forest. Filled it up with gas, too. Two weeks in a B with the DW and a 54 pound dog get.....a little tight. However, spend most of our time outside and prepared meals outside, so just used the john, bath and beds in the RT.

Got 13.3 mpg from Amarillo to my house in OKC, about 264 miles level and straight on I-40. That is driving 70 and using the AC.

Fortunately I haven't had this problem ... but I have seen several folks talk about placing the Bounce dryer sheets around the interior to discourage the mice. Apparently they don't like the smell. Even though I have never had the problem I do it anyway because they smell good.

Good luck ...

Just had a 60k mile service, new batteries and a good scrub. Leave in the morning for 5 weeks through British Columbia, Yukon and SE Alaska--yippee!

Just returned from 12 day trip to Bainbridge Island. All went well except 2 hours from home the charge hose to the turbo slipped off and rpms would not exceed 2500. In the middle of no where and 107 degrees out side we pushed on like that for an hour until we came upon the Mercedes dealer in Fairfield, CA who took me in immediately and had me back on the road in no time. A great trip and otherwise trouble free. Averaged 22.5 mpg. Today we dumped the tanks and gave it a good wash.

Added a wide angle lens to the back window of the Sportsmobile. I'm looking forward to seeing things better when backing out in parking lots like Wal-Mart and Target!

My wife used the RT to go pick up our grandson this morning while I took our daily driver on some other errands. Just one more reason we love our "B"!

Adjusted the sliding door for rattles, again. Trying to figure out how to better align the passenger front door because of bad wind noise. It sticks out from the body about 1/8" at the top rear.
Loaded some semi permanent van only clothing in and added some minor kitchen items.
Contemplating pulling out the microwave to add some padding on it's mounts for rattles.
More to come
