Nashville: last day

Last day in Nashville. Mostly being spent at the campground while the mobile rv tech replaces the starter on the generator so we can use the AC on the road. Naturally, the starter is in the back and inaccessible unless you drop the generator. And, you can't be sure if this is the problem. It is worn and seems sketchy. Hope so.
We're lucky to catch this guy. RV Techs have a hard time finishing a job because campground guests keep coming up and asking them to work on their rig next. Happens everywhere we have been. That is a great business to start because the alternative is expensive dealers who take weeks, if not months, to do a job. Really. If you are spending a lot of time in your RV, how do you do that?

Generator Update.

Toast. It's in the back of the car. All 270 pounds of it. Seems the rotor/stator are wobbling bad. An Onan dealer will have to assess and decide if it is cost effective to repair or to buy a new one at about $3700. Since it was down there is no reason to pay labor to remount it since it will have to be dropped anyway, thus why it is in the car until we find a generator shop in Hickory.

The campground is pretty good. It is the Nashville I-24 Campound in Smyrna, TN LINK. $34/day.


Asheville tomorrow.
