The 🏁 Co-op: An awesome road test.

One of the jobs I enjoy the most is the road test of a coach about ready to go home.  Actually the REAL road test is with the customer to show off our work and to make sure all is the way it should be before the coach goes home.  Our warranty being “in house” I must drive every coach with the customer before it leave……without that “plausible deniability” ruined any relationship.  The customer and I must know that a coach is ready to go home.

But the first ride is with me.Yes, we delivered this coach a year or so back and as we always say “These are never done” JD brought his baby back for our latest and greatest stuff.

The Mac dash and FiTech display tells the storystill have the FiTech display to remount but hey, this is the first road test……….the new aluminum radiator and new dash AC condenser worked great………these pics were taken at my half way point……the same place I bring Eleganza every Sunday morningthe ride back was just as great…….an interesting feature “switch pitch transmission.  Flip that on and you are off to the races!  As always I found some things for the punch list……like I said these things are never done!

and about the time I said no other vehicles than a GMC we pulled this 84′ Revcon……. Sorry but it’s been here since before Covid so it came up in the Que.And check out this dash…….warp factor 2 there Scotty!  This really is in great shape, not much needed…a little flaking paint the the ole girl has held together pretty wellit will be outa here pretty soon and I’m proud to say we helped get this critter back burning?dinosaurs……..

Ok, I need to get to work now…… We have another coach coming in from the Que today…..one we had done before Covid and then another list of jobs were attached…..hey, no problem.

I’ll see ya tomorrow……….JD’s Serpantine belt system…..
