Chinook RV

very rare very clean rig. congratulations on the find...

Here are a couple more photos from my “Test Drive” !

i used 99.9gl of Diesel on my 1269mile adventure. For overall average of 12.7mpg. I was pushing at a average of 70mph . I was able to maintain those speeds while crossing over many different Mountains and steep grades.
I'm looking forwards to putting a cold air intake and a tuner on this 7.3 PSD. Hopefully this will increase both my mileage and Power.

Looking nice! Great to see some glamour shots in the dirt. Should be a lot of fun, enjoy.

Lookin' good! Glad to hear you're home successfully. Now bring on the mods and the next trip

Last night I thought that I would set up the Full bed just to know what it was like b4 I hit the road. I’m amazed how large it is ! This is going to be Great !

Oh yeah, the dinette version: The whole darned thing turns into a bed! Not too shabby

Update; I now have the fresh water tank cleaned out and Sanitized. It's working as it should. I'm still futzing with the Fridge but I feel that I'll have it up and running properly soon.
Unfortunately I have a feeling that my 2 house batteries might be near their shelf life ? They just don't seem to hold their charge as long as they should. Unfortunately they don't have a Date of purchased marked on them ?
I took the Mrs out for a quick overnighter to Jalama Beach up on the California Coast. She was instantly in Love ! She couldn't believe how nicely appointed this rig is. We had a Great Time !
Now for her ONLY Complaint. People Never Stopped coming by Checking Out The Rig ! There was a constant flow of Campers stopping by and asking questions ! She said There's always someone looking at it ! We don't have many Rigs like this in SoCal.

What brand is your battery? Some manufacturers use date code that is branded into the case.

My two batteries are fairly new but had almost critical low level of water in them when rig bought. I had filled with water then tested along with all connections and discovered smart solenoid shot, new one being picked up today or tomorrow.

I would have checked out before replacing.
