And now I see from your photo that you are Towing 4 down. What did you decide on the tow dolly back in 08? I am still tried to solve the quandary.

I guess I'm curious since I'm not sure when the diesels in North America started using the ad blue stuff.<br />It was already being used when we came here in 08, and I remember VW decided not to release one whole model year because there was some mix up with the technology. <br /><br />Just nosey of course.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03523653271715366168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6388266709789139581.post-36917332084340188452012-06-27T10:19:01.058-04:002012-06-27T10:19:01.058-04:00Wish I had one of those built in air compressors. ...Wish I had one of those built in air compressors.

Choosing an RV is really about compromises.
