Observation's
Just returned from a week long trip on our 07 Mountaineer BHD..the first long pull and multi night adventure... Central California to Las Vegas via 99,58,I15..here are some observation's
************************************************** ********************
We have the CORRECT floor plan...kids ( and mess ) in the back , DW sleeping away in the bedroom. I'm up early...not waking up the family.
Side aisle bathroom allowing the girls room to get dressed. We all showered each day in the coach.
Never going to fill up the storage this unit has , lot's of space inside.
One A/C will not cool the coach ( need the 2nd unit ) Bedroom A/C & HEAT is awful.
Ford F-250 PSD handles the Mountaineer very , very well. I15 from Barstow to Las Vegas has a LONG SLOW CLIMB that I pulled at 60 MPH, with power to spare.
Here are the numbers for the trip.
1,020 miles ( including run around Town )
10.7 overall average
Trans Temp 175 avg ( high 195 )
EGT Avg 850 - 900 ( high 1200 )
Turbo Boost avg 10 ( high 30 )
Diesel Cost low 2.87 High 3.29
I'm ready to go again !!!
