A Month in RV Repair Limbo aka Colorado

When last you heard from us, we had just been towed to Cummins, Rocky Mountain, with an overheated engine. The engine turned out to be just fine. A coolant hose had burst, soaking the storage bays under the coach and causing the engine to overheat. Fortunately, we pulled over quickly enough to prevent engine damage. After 4 days at Cummins, we had a hose splice which allowed us to travel to our original Newmar authorized repair destination, Allstars RV repair, South of Denver in Louviers, CO. We arrived there on May 26th, the Friday before Memorial Day, and enjoyed their hospitality and "free camping" until yesterday, June 17th. We pulled out of All Stars with what we hope is an "as good as new" rig. Under warranty we have a new front roof air conditioner, a new color back-up camera, a new controller for our electrical inverter/converter system, new coolant hoses, new hose for fridge icemaker, new keyless entry pad, refurbished storage bay carpeting, and paint and body touch-ups.
The upstart facility at All Stars was not as impressive as the Cummins facility, but their staff was positive and efficient, getting repairs done as quickly as the necessary parts arrived from Newmar. In addition, they allowed us to live in our rig and were always attentive to the safety and comfort needs of our three cats as they completed their work.
Picture 1 is Steve "patiently" waiting during our 3+ weeks on the All Stars lot. Picture 2 is "Dakota", our sole companion on the lot for many nights and weekends. Picture 3 is our shiny, good as new rig; Mark the body man and Steve, on the evening before we left.
"Where are we now?", you ask. Well, we're back in Denver at Cummins Rocky Mountain, the local Spartan Chassis Rep. Just one more Spartan recall electrical fix is needed and we'll be on our way to the Black Hills of South Dakota. We hope to be out of here in just one or two more days.
