GMC Motorhome News

Just got the latest GMCMN today. Duane Simmons has a letter in there
about the Onan charger interfering with the TrueCharge 40+. The thing I
found most interesting in this issue was an ad in the classifieds for
Leigh Harrison's 4 air bag system!

P.S. For those of you who recently joined us, there was an article in a
past GMCMN critical of the 4 air bag system as the loads on the bogie
mount had not been evaluated.

Yes, GMC Motorhome News(GMCMN) is Cinnabar's quarterly publication

Well, "put down" may be a bit strong, but the implication was that the 4
bag system wasn't properly engineered because the resulting torsional
loads on the bogie mount had not been analyzed. The ad wasn't C'bar's,
it was Leigh Harrison's in the classified section.

Sorry if my meaning was a little obtuse, but I appreciate irony.
Cinnabar is "critical" of the 4 bag system in one issue, but accepts
paid advertising for the product from its designer in another.
