A great listing Ichny.

This is shown at FMCA Drivers Safety Training Courses. It definitely is a must read/view article for all RVers.
The next time an FMCA Ralley is in your area, sign up for the Driver Safety Training course. Upon completion of the 8 hour course, you will receive a Certificate. This course will also save you some money on your insurance. As most Insurance companies offer discounts when courses of this nature are completed.

Horsepowerfan, to save the digital video to your computer right click on the video and then click the "save target as" button. Save the video to the file of your choice. Since you are on dial-up you might what to do this while you are watching a video or something else on the TV. Just check the download periodically. I hope this helped.

Ichn2go,

Great find, thanks for sharing.
Ole dog learns new stuff.


RUSTIC is good.
Kudos to those who make Local, State & Federal Parks & Campgrounds possible and to those picking up the slack by Providing Private Campgrounds.

Another vote of appreciation for the pointer! The major thing I realized was that running at full governed speed gives one no headroom for further acceleration in case of blowout. Better cruize a little slower! Thanks again.

Just downloaded the videos. Thank you so much for the information as I had things backwards...Hope I don't have the need to use this information but certainly feel better that I now know the correct procedure.

These are both outstanding videos to watch. I would assume that the same principals apply when towing a 5vr? I agree that this should be mandatory watching for anyone who owns a motorhome or tows a trailer. Thank you very much for posting this.
