| My name is Joel Trane, I am the owner of Tranes Diesel Repair in Idaho
Falls, Idaho, and have been working as a diesel mechanic for 15 years.
My work experience and credentials are as follows: 2 years at Lake
City International in Salt Lake City, Utah; 5 years at Smith Detroit
Allison in Salt Lake City, Utah; 1.5 years at Freightliner Idaho
Falls, Idaho, and have been operating my own business for the past 5 years.
During my 13.5 year career I have worked on and repaired everything from
heavy mining equipment, over the road trucks, pickups, automobiles and
RV's of all types including Prevost buses, diesel pushers and class C gas
motor homes.
The repair issues to these RV's have consisted of many major engine
and transmission failures, most of which are at surprisingly low miles,
to numerous overheating/cooling system problems. The trouble behind these
problems is the base chassis being to light with the engine placed in the
rear where they are VERY tough to work on, even minor repairs and maintenance
such as a fuel filter or fuel pump can be an ordeal. There are so many
times that the engine access on the pusher RV's must be from inside a nice
plush interior with the bed pulled up. Compare it to working on a
diesel engine in your living room after covering everything with plastic.
This type of RV repair work is very expensive because of all the extra
work and precautions that must be taken.
My business is located right next to a major truck stop and we repair all makes of class 8 semi trucks. These vehicles are made to provide literally millions of miles of service. When they do need repairs the hood is dumped forward and everything can easily be inspected and repaired. Because of the huge number of trucks on the road, parts are always available and competitively priced eg: a cam shaft for a Detroit series 60 is right at $200 where a cam for a small block chevy may cost you more than that. The major components found in heavy trucks are not brand oriented eg: you will find a Cummings or Detroit engine in a Volvo, KW, Peterbuilt or Freightliner. At Tranes Diesel we have done many inspections, oil changes and A/C charges for Powerhouse and in my professional opinion have found them to be a very well built, high quality coach. A class 8 truck chassis coach is superior in every way to any other type of RV I have ever worked on. A semi truck under a Powerhouse Coach does not even know it is working
. I think that any repair shop around the country would be glad to offer
you service to your Powerhouse Coach, I know my crew would .
Sincerely Joel Trane
