- Fuel cap replaced

- drivers side mirror replaced

- pivoting blindspot mirrors mounted

- reverse and rear marker light bulbs replaced. Right rear marker light still does not respond.

Convex Mirrors and Over Cab Sleeping Compartment

My mechanic installed convex mirror to the outside chrome and aluminum bars today.  He also started tearing apart the overhead bunk area.  This hangs out of the front of the motorhome, above the cab.  I expressed an interest in sleeping up there, mainly because I'm 6'6 and I'm somebody who could get up and down from it the best.  My bed here at home port is custom built.  It's about 5 feet in the air and I have a way of climbing up and down it's ladder.  The overhead cab bed is wider than the twin size one in the master bedroom.  With being a Buckeye Trail section supervisor and principal to an effort that may lead to chapter, I could have guests over?
