New method to rinse waste tanks

Got this from our warranty clerk this morning. It looks like a Tiffen and from the front end, a newer one.

That's the wrong end of the duck to be feeding...... I don't think I'd be a "happy camper" if that happened to me.

My guess is that if you peruse the RV salvage yard web sites, you may find that one will be offered at a great price for an easy DIYer repair project

It will only need minor repair and you too can own a 'premier' Class A
- Replace all PCM and engine control electronics - check
- rebuild rusty Cummins engine - check
- replace all soggy interior wood and flooring - check
- Rebuild transmission and differential - check
- Replace all rear brake parts - check
- Rebuild air system - check
Rebuild big Onan genset - check
Rebuild self leveling rams and hydraulics - yep, check

etc, etc., etc

Looking at the picture, I think it's a Phaeton. That puts it in the $300,000.00+ range.

Yup wrong pedal.

You would think there would be a curb between the camp and the canal.

You know How fast I would think he would have been going to get that far. I would hope the thing would hang up as soon and the rea wheels dropped in. This sucker had enough momentum to continue 15 feet of drag. Hey the tanks are clean though.

With that kind of six figure investment, you would think the PDI would have pointed out which peddle does what?!?

His insurance company will not be happy!

Prior to this the biggest thing he drove was a Chev Impala. He got white hair, turned 65 and went and picked up that bad boy !

My wife retired 25 years from a police department in Oregon. Countless "wrong pedal" stories! Crashing into houses, buildings and other vehicles!

Thanks for posting the video. The language leaves a bit to be desired, I will show the guys at work in the morning.

If you look at the left hand side of the picture, you will see other parked Class A's. Want to bet what the topic of conversation at the campground's marshmallow roast that night!

Poor guy didn't even the "Cloak of Invisibility" to have done it in private, at home!
