So that's just sucks.... I needed a bigger truck to pull our TT. I've had 4 Tundra's since 2007. Never had to do anything but fluid and battery changes.

Yeah, I'm glad we're bringing more engineerng and manufacturing back to USA 🇺🇸
Unhook the 10 foot Tracker Bass rig and hook up your TT to the Tundra to pull the RV.

Make sure you unload the groceries. Leave the spare tire at home.

Get er done...................

It was gonna be something, at least the dash isn't going to need to come out. Considering every moving part of the refrigerant system is in the compressor it stands to reason it would be the component most likely to fail.

Problem solved....

Compressor grenaded, spewed metal and other crap throughout the system.

Was quoted $3400 for new parts hoses and other stuff. 20 months out of warranty.
Service writer was very cool about filing for warranty assistance.

Low and behold, Ford came through with eating $2500 of the costs.

Happy camper, professionally done and a 3/36 warranty on the fix.
