    He is still working there and is in the process of leaving them. He said the back haul guy that he was using at Horizon, left in the last month. You will have to take it up with him.

    If no one will be delivering the units that go there, just how many do you think Horizon will lose?

    By the way, they are looking at 30,000 units a year, so I am familiar with this.

    There are two types of camping worlds.

    One is the company stores. The other is a franchise.

    Not familiar with King of the Road.

    They have the new CWRV signs all over the place around Elkhart.

    Guess I might read one Monday when I head up again.

    How much does that affect your mileage running 4wd?

    Roadmedic,

    Do you prefer the 5.9 or 6.7 in a dodge 1 ton? I noticed that you recommend 4wd for the Canada run, does that increase your maintenance costs with the 4wd?

    Never owned a 6.7 and at this time do not intend to buy one.

    You can run a 2 wd if you want. My first truck was a 2 wd truck. I would not ever buy another 2 wd.

    Cannot say what the increased cost would be since I went from a 2002 Ford F350 with a 7.3 to the Dodge 5.9.
     
    Marvin40 Thanks this.
