New Tow Rig

[Happy Bear]

Well, I have been in the market for a new tow rig solution for at least 6 months. I've been looking for some sort of RV and I've considered everything from Class A motorhomes, Class C motorhomes, converted motor coaches, and even converted school busses.

I wanted something with a bedroom and shower, kitchen was a plus. I also wanted something good to go mecahnically. All the diesel RV's were out of my price range which is why I was considering converted busses. I came across this 1991 40' Diesel Pusher Allegro RV with 80K miles and decided to move on it.

It has an 8.3 cummins with an auto trans. What do ya think?

The styling is a little out dated but the drivetrain/year/mileage is perfect for what I wanted and I think I got a good enough deal that it should hold its resale value.

[twdjeepgod]

$8,300.00 is that what you paid?

looks nice and should be nice to have and use for sure

[dan58]

That will be a killer setup for races and trailrides. With all the mud and slop we run into, you might want to look at some plastic or something for the carpets. Morgan is going to love having a comfy bed and shower.

Are you keeping the Dodge too?

[atjeep]

Were you going to pull an enclosed with that?
Not a critique, just a question.

Ended up paying $8800, I was hoping to pick it up for closer to $7500 but I still think it is the right rig for what I want.

The dodge will be getting sold. Hopefully Morgan can find a new job or get some time off work so we actually get a chance to enjoy it.

Were you going to pull an enclosed with that?
Not a critique, just a question.
Most likely, I am deciding if I want to sell the enclosed we have now or if I'm going to buy Pearson out of it and hold onto it.

[Ripster]

Damn nice shaggin-wagon Happy, well done!

[zucruisers]

nice, im jealous:cool:

[MDMike]

Damn man, that thing is pimp!!! Congrats Matt!

[Mike]

40' plus an enclosed is going to be PITA on some roads.

[Jack]

Hot.

[Happy Bear]

40' plus an enclosed is going to be PITA on some roads.
Shoot, I never considered that ;)

Luckily most of the traveling will be on major interstates. I don't see backroads being a PITA, a trailer should track pretty well behind the RV, I doubt you will have to worry much about where the trailer is going.

Now parking lots, city streets, those may be a little more difficult.

[frosty]

I assume you've already checked the towing capacity and it fits your current and possible future needs?

Only problem I see with that is if you ever decided on a day/quick wheeling trip. I'd rather tow with a truck for that but my situation is different than yours so it might not be a problem you have to worry about.

[Jack]

It looks very well cared for. Agree with Frosty... a DD 1/2 ton?

[poopypants]

pretty badass tow truck...i like it
just old enough that i wouldnt hesitate walking in it boots on all coal dusty from RC or wherever but still nice enough to make your boys use coasters for beers haha
being self contained with a shower is very nice especially if you bring a lady friend wheeling

[ehall]

I want one of those just to drive ... that's a fantastic price

Yea, day trips were definitly a big consideration when I decided on making the switch to an RV. I have not taken a single day trip this year though and with the RV I don't think it will be hard to justify showing up early and staying on site the night before since I will have a bed, shower, heat and AC. Also will be a good reason to hang out after the events and drive home the next day. Most of the events I plan on attending are either weekend trips or Saturday events where I can show up Friday and drive home Sunday.

The only other time I tow my trailer short distances is when I take the buggy to Appalcahian Offroad. I will just suck it up and drive the RV most likely.

I am definitly considering a 1/2 ton chevy DD so I still have something to tote a trailer around town.

Another main motivation for going to an RV is the insurance costs, for my dodge it's 1600/year for just a minimum liability policy. I'm looking at $300 for a full coverage policy on the RV.

Honestly, I did not check on the towing capacity of this RV, but I'm figuring with air brakes and diesel drivetrain it should be up to the task of towing a single car trailer. It does have a properly rated tow hitch and "tow package"

[Mike]

You may have to upgrade the hitch. My parents 35' Class A only had 5k hitch on the back...that's with a "tow package". They flat tow a car behind it.

[96zj]

you really think you can get that thing into AOI?

Cool rig, but you may have to consider borrowing a truck for short trips.

[davenjeip]

I was thinking about doing the same thing as you, right after I started towing. Really wanted a shower, a/c, and somewhere my wife could hang out while I was on the trail so she would start coming with me. Would have been cheaper to get a used RV than to sell the truck and get a 1 ton diesel with a slide in.

Problem I came across was with the tow ratings. Had nothing to do with the drivetrain or the hitch, which seemed to be quite often bigger than what the RV would handle. Most of the ratings were based on the rear frame rails, and how they weren't designed to handle the weight. Also came up with some instances where they were getting damaged with less than what they were rated for.

Tried getting more info on the RV forums, but they were mostly no help. Seemed that they could not grasp the concept of why I would want to trailer vs. flat tow (which put it overweight) or could only suggest that I spend $200,000 on a new RV. Best I could ever get was on Pirate, where there are a couple threads in the tow rig section, including a decent description of how a guy rebuilt the rear frame on his Class C.

Being a diesel pusher, there is a really good chance that you have a higher rating than most of what's out there. But, I'd advise you to spend some time on your back under the rear of it checking out the structure the hitch is tied to to make sure if lives up to your standards. JMO


All that said, I really like it and hope it treats you well. My neighbor is getting ready to sell an older, low mileage 27' with lots of new stuff, that supposedly is rated for 10,000#, and I wish I had the cash to make it happen.

[RatLabGuy]

Daaaamn... now I'm REALLY gonna be hitting you up for the next ECORS race ;-)

What's the story on GVWR/weighted tags for these? W/ your enclosed trailer/buggy, that must be, what, 6-7k extra at least?
LOL curious what the turning radius is.

I've been seriously considering going the same route, but alot smaller for manuverability.

[RatLabGuy]

My neighbor is getting ready to sell an older, low mileage 27' with lots of new stuff, that supposedly is rated for 10,000#, and I wish I had the cash to make it happen.

I may be interested in this... depending on cost...
my wife is sold on the idea of an RV, but not the cost (classic).

[frosty]

Do you know the GCWR? Some quick looking leads me to believe that 5K might be all you can legally pull even if you add a beefier hitch. I havent found the specs for this exact one, same year and model just shorter, so you might be good.

[Happy Bear]

I'm going to check the frame/tow capacity out but I don't see why it would be very hard to add some additional bracing to the frame so it can tow a little more weight in the case that the frame isn't sufficient.

[twdjeepgod]

till you get pulled over for towing more weight than legally allowed or the vehicle was rated at pulling. not all cops are that dumb. some have DOY licenses and can see when there is an issue.

i have been there and done that. got stopped for being over weight on a weighted road. then came to find out that my truck was under rated for the load i was towing. the fines were really fun:doh:

just an fyi

[Jack]

Just get an open trailer. Your rig and a 1K trailer will cure the issue, fo sho.

[dan58]

Just get an open trailer. Your rig and a 1K trailer will cure the issue, fo sho.

That combo would be WELL under 5K, but all the spares and stuff will have to go somewhere else.

[Happy Bear]

I got my fingers crossed the ebay seller is checking on the gcwr and gvwr for me.

[RatLabGuy]

That combo would be WELL under 5K, but all the spares and stuff will have to go somewhere else.

Like in all the space in the back of the RV. Who needs a bed?

[davenjeip]

Think it's an early 90's model with something like 50,000 miles.

27' Cruise Aire by Georgie Boy. Chevy 454 powered.

Passed inspection maybe two years ago and put a few parts into it to make it happen. Off the top of my head, I think it has a new generator and something else big that was replaced recently (heater maybe?).

He had it running in the driveway the other day, and it sounded good. Looking out my window, it still looks good, but there is one headlight darker than the others like it might be burned out.

When it was up for sale before, I think he was asking $7000. Not sure what he's asking this time around.

I can get better details if you want.

[Happy Bear]

Like in all the space in the back of the RV. Who needs a bed?
Hmmm did you see my requirements for what I was looking for? :lol:

There should be plenty of storage underneath for spares

[Numidian]

That thing is going to have no problem pulling Happicks enclosed... Happick's enclosed is nowhere near as big as you guys are making it out to be.

[Jack]

It weighs 3500.

[dan58]

That thing is going to have no problem pulling Happicks enclosed... Happick's enclosed is nowhere near as big as you guys are making it out to be.

I think the worry is being over 26k, not whether the toter will haul it.

[frosty]

That thing is going to have no problem pulling Happicks enclosed... Happick's enclosed is nowhere near as big as you guys are making it out to be.

Pulling it and pulling it legally are two different things. Not that he wont be legal but I am curious of the towing capacity.

I think the worry is being over 26k, not whether the toter will haul it.

I'm not sure that holds true for RVs and its not what I was thinking about.

I just asked what the towing capacity was as I am a bit skeptical that sometime that old will have a high enough rating. I could very well be wrong. It wont be the first time nor would it be the last.

[breakinshit]

It weighs 3500.
2400 emty IIRC

The 6CTA is a really nice motor. I am just beginning to learn about it.

Dad has two of these motors in his boat. His are 420 HP a piece:D

Happy, Do you know what tranny is in it? Alison?

Also why are you concerned about the over 26K weight? If it is titled as a RV then it doesn't matter.

[Z28YJ]

What kind of boat?

[Happy Bear]

I'm not concerned about any of this, still waiting on the GVCW and GVWR, but I think it will all pan out.

I'm not sure what the transmission is, most any RV with a diesel I have seen has an allison trans though, so I'm thinking thats the norm.

[Brandon95yj]

What kind of boat?

Same boat just not my dads.

you can turn those 8.3's up pretty nicely :D

some of them weren't intercooled though so that could be an issue.

looks like a nice rig!

[dan58]

I'm still grinning. Just think of how much good food the women can make over a real stove!

[JamisonWorkshop]

Good luck with it. Get your use out of it. I am going back to the simple life of 16' open decks at 80mph. :)


Alot of bus to move around.
Nice to have all the room though.

Sweet ride Matt. Donna and I looked at one last year but decided to wait. We couldn't justify it with our work schedules.

[hey...hey]

"I'm a mog, half man-half dog. I'm my own best friend!"

freeking "Spaceballs"...great. where do the quotes and replays end...when the guys are "combing the desert" and the one guy asks if they found anything. then the other guys says "we ain't found sh#t." GREAT!

sweet rig man. makes all those weekend events just that much sweeter. it'll be great to see that thing at rausch and big dogs.

Sorry Matt, I love this movie. Back on topic :o

[Numidian]

It's official... Happick, you have to buy a copy of Spaceballs and keep it in the RV at all times.

[Happy Bear]

lol, I've never even seen the movie

[poopypants]

this sentence does not compute...:confused:

I could make people cry with the # of movies I haven't seen. I go to the movie theater once a year MAX(normally chick flicks to keep the woman happy), and don't watch movies at home either.

Even in college I would of rather been doing anything then watch a movie.

[dan58]

Uhhh....movie night December 20.

Let me guess, you haven't seen Animal House or Ferris Bueller's Day Off? :flipoff2:

[lowdown]

9 Times!?

[Shane]

i have the dvd you can borrow. matter of fact we can watch it at big dogs :D

[Dave01XJ]

Diesel Pusher Allegro...they rank up there with the quality RV's good find.
80K miles for what u paid for it is very good find....if you financed it don't forget
to write part of it off as a second home, any thing with a shower/toilet can be considered a home...my pop up has a shower/toilet and it could be written off.

[gr8whytyj]

When do you take ownership? I want to check it out in person.

[Happy Bear]

I'm flying into Indianapolis Saturday morning to pick it up. Should be back in Maryland by Sunday!

[MDMike]

Alright, stupid newb RV question.......What designates this as a "diesel pusher"? Is there such a thing as a "diesel puller"?

[frosty]

Rear engine makes it a pusher. Cant help on the other but I'd assume there are some front diesel engine RVs.

[MDMike]

Yeaaaaa, I hadn't been around and didn't know it was raining ALL day. Your old hunting buddy was coaching me along then I got out of the truck and was like WTF and left it there. I was using a 4wd dodge when I dropped the trailer there :rolleyes:

haha yea, it gets slick up there. Dave and I have talked about getting a couple ton of stone to lay down but it's $$ i don't really have right now, and it'd take some work.

yeah, there is an "Allegro" puller RV up my way stashed beside someone house. it has more of a bull or flat nose and larger overhang in the back, compared to matt's. but seems to be around the same year, judging by the paint and style.

[xcheckr]

Awesome Happick. That will be helluva fun.

And if you need a truck to pull your sh!t to AOI, you can borrow mine.

[Broncolou]

SO.....what are you going to use to pull your broken $H!T off the race course and back to the pits now.....:lol:





























Excellent investment for the money....you can trash it and it shouldn't devalue too much:D

[Happy Bear]

Welllllll, this has been one HELL of an experience to go get this thing.

Does anyone want a 40' RV?

It started with an early flight to Indianapolis where we were greeted by our driver, a former Harlan County Kentucky resident claiming to be 111 years old and a former ESPN Bass Master Pro fisherman. We were riding with him and his 25-30 year old girlfriend and her son:lol: This made for a very interesting 2 hour ride to the RV "dealership".

Upon arrival I immediately noticed the exterior is not in nearly as good of condition as the ebay photos made it seem. I will post up more details of the problems later but the guy said all systems work and when he went to demo it, it seemed this was the first time they were actually trying to use anything in the RV. I found a spot in the interior where there had been a leak around a roof vent that they had freshly soaked down with bleach and played dumb about. They were swapping new batteries in to get it started for our drive home and you could just tell that they had mis reperesented what they were selling. Being in BFE Indiana with no ride home and allready having wired them the money we didn't have too many options but to get on the road home.

Were currently on I68 E freezing our balls off with no heat in the RV!

I think this is by far the worst investment I have ever made and will be quite a learning experience. Probably the last time I will ever buy something site unseen.

I also think I grossly underestimated the size of the RV and the difficulties it will present to just hook a trailer up to the back of it even.

Time will tell, I def need to get it home let everything thaw out, find someone with some RV knowledge to help me figure out what works and what doesn't work and come up with a game plan.

[Broncolou]

You own it now so make the best of it. The leaks are easy to fix on the roof, it's the rot below that can be an issue. I don't have a whole lot of time before KOH, but after, I could probably help out a little. How does it run? Tranny seem OK? Fluids look good? Tires? The RV systems are simple. The Fridge and AC are the expensive items..... Good luck man! Think positive...."Free your mind and your ass will follow":thumbsup:

[dan58]

Drag the sumbish back here, and we'll give it a good cleaning and troubleshooting.

[Numidian]

I just gave him a pep talk over aim and told him we'll go through it this winter and come spring time he can decide if he still wants to drive it off a cliff :cheers:

[RatLabGuy]

Happy - as you know I live just up teh road from you, and I'll be glad to lend a hand going through it top to bottom.
Don't know much about RVs but i'm up for the learnin'.

And... we're buyin gah ouse that conveniently has an extra parking pad just the right size for an RV...

[BBoarder]

fix it and cut the last 15ft off of it and throw the buggy on the back, then no trailer needed.

[Happy Bear]

Well I went through the RV today and it is not nearly as bad as my first impression; like I was hoping. Everything works except for one light. I found a lot of manuals in it and learned a lot from those and a friend who stopped by that has had RV's. The only thing I didn't get to test was the hot water heater and plumbing because the pump still had frozen water in it. I brought the pump home to thaw out and it seems to be working fine now, hopefully the same is true for the hot water heaters, or at least one of them :thumbsup:

[Jack]

good news.

[dan58]

Did Morgan start on her cleaning rampage?

[Typhoon]

Glad you made it home ok and it is not as bad as you thought.
It might already be too late, but you may want to flush the plumbing with RV antifreeze.
Stolen from google:


1. Drain fresh water tank.
2. Drain hot water heater.
3. Dump and flush both black and gray water holding tanks, leave gray water valve open.
4. Screw compressed air adaptor into the fresh water inlet. The adapter is available from Camping World or most RV dealers.
5. Apply compressed air, keeping the pressure less than 20 lbs/sq inch.
6. Open each faucet, one valve at a time, allowing the compressed air to force the water out of the line. Don't forget the shower and toilet.
7. Remove the drain plug from the hot water tank and allow the compressed air to blow out the remaining water. Reinstall drain plug.
8. Remove the compressed air source and adapter.
9: Close the water heater by-pass valve. (SEE SPECIAL WATER HEATER NOTE BELOW)
10. Remove the water line that runs between the fresh water pump and the fresh water tank, where it joins the fresh water tank.
11. Insert the end of the line into a gallon jug of RV antifreeze. (NEVER-NEVER-NEVER USE AUTOMOTIVE ANTIFREEZE!!!!!!!).
12. Start the fresh water pump. It will run for a few moments, sucking antifreeze from the jug. It will stop as pressure in the system builds up.
13. Open each valve of each faucet, one at a time, until the red antifreeze appears, shut the faucet. Don't forget the shower and toilet.
14. Remove the line from the jug of antifreeze and reattach it to the fresh water tank. HINT: For a few dollars you can buy and install an adapter that will eliminate removing and reinstalling the fresh water line. It is a small three way valve that goes in the fresh water line, between the fresh water tank and the pump. You can easily pump antifreeze throughout he system by inserting the tube attached to the valve into a gallon of antifreeze, turning the valve and starting the pump. Simply turn the valve back to its original position and you are done.
15. shut the gray water valve.
16. Pour a few cups of antifreeze down each drain and the toilet.
17. Your done.

[Happy Bear]

12. Start the fresh water pump.
Yea, this is where I was getting stuck :D

I'm going to go put the pump back in it an evening this week and finsh winterizing it. The water heaters did have frozen water in them when I picked it up, although, it appears to have thawed out since getting to MD. I'm going to put the pump back in, test out the water heaters , then do the antifreeze gig, Thanks.

[Broncolou]

I don't use antifreeze in anything but the traps. I rig up the air compressor and blow the system dry. The water tastes better:D

[Happy Bear]

Sounds like a good idea, you just hook up at the fresh water supply line open the faucets, let it blast, and drain the tanks? Should get enough of the water out to prevent freezing/expansion/cracking. I would think there would still be water hanging out in the hot water heaters etc though.

[Broncolou]

You don"t want to blast 90# strait in. The water heater has a drain at the low point in the access panel you can remove with a 1-1 1/4 " socket. It should have a consumable anode on it for bad water. It needs to be replaced every year.

Drain storage water tank $ reinstall plug
Install air rig with ball valve to water supply
Open farthest point water outlet just 1 @ a time
Short blasts till all water is out- never let it get full pressure
Work your way 1 @ a time hot then cold or VV to the closest and you are done........

I filled my storage tank with antifreeze and pumped in that way ONCE.... never again. Water tasted like shit for 2 years. Plus it is cheaper not to buy RV antifreeze

[racinghoss]

In MD, I have never had to use antifreeze or blow my lines dry. Run your pump just long enough to empty the lines into the dump tanks. There should be a valve on the low point to drain it. Drain the water out of the water heater. Make sure your dump tanks are empty and drain the fresh water tank. If you want, you can drop a little antifreeze in the p-traps.

This is all I have done since moving to MD and I have not had a problem.

Maybe we can get a little section of tarmac at BWI.

[gr8whytyj]

You aren't getting that tank out of there anytime soon. I got my 4wd f250 stuck down there yesterday. Phillyzj had to come yank me out.

I took the RV for inspection the other day, it failed on the following:

leak in muffler, needs patched
dim headlights, ground issue
high bulb is out on one side
clearance light
battery tie downs

Not too bad, I'm looking forward to driving and trying it out for camping.

[Appalachian Offroad]

Dont wait to do the work or you may have a longer list when you get it reinspected
