This vehicle has fuel fill on both sides. You have to open the other side in order to prevent a vapor lock on the fueling side. I have fueled this way numerous times without incident. I recently fueled the same way and fuel gushed out the opposite side without tripping the fuel nozzle cut off. This resulted on a significant amount of fuel dumping on the fuel bay.
While driving the top bunk above the drivers and passenger seats came loose from the latches and came down blocking my view of the road. My wife just sat down in her seat otherwise it would have hit her on the head. She was able to guide me to the side of the road and it put the bunk back on the latches.

The grill is mounted at one end of the slide and is very heavy. The mechanism to secure the slide failed probably due to the slide being weighted inappropriately. Tiffin is aware of th
Frieghtliner uses a tire pressure monitoring system manufactured by Valor. The system is unreliable and stops transmitting data to the instrument panel without any notice to the driver. The only way you discover it is not working is by scrolling through options on the instrument panel and discovering that instead of registering pressure and temperatures, you have dashes displayed. There is no alarm or other indication the system has failed. Loss of air on a steer wheel in a large motor home is potentially life threatening. The loss of pressure data being presented to the driver makes catastrophic tire failure more likely. Freightliner corporate and their dealers basically say they know the
