Seiler's Sagas: Feb. 8 2011

Little behind on the blog but here are several days' worth of adventures. We ended up getting a camp site in Bensen, AZ when we had truck problems.

I had no power. Took the truck to a Ford dealer and they checked it out and said the problem was my Edge Chip that I had installed in the truck. They disconnected it and said all my problems were over. I went back to the campground hitched up and didn't get a mile down I 10 before my problems came back. Got off at the next exit and went back to Ford. They hooked up the computer again and said all was well, that here was nothing wrong and they had checked everything out. Eventually we made it to Tucson. Got another camp site and took the truck to another Ford dealer. They said that there was a 3 to 5 day wait. We got there on a Thursday so I figured that I would be there till at least Wednesday. I called up Enterprise and rented a car. No point being in a new town and not being able to see anything, so the rental was an option. I talked to my friend Russ and he said it sounded like a fuel filter problem. I drove to Ford and had them change the filters. They had already checked the truck with the computer and found nothing wrong. The fuel filter was the problem. Since I had the car and had paid for the site, we explored Tucson. It's a nice town and we had a good time. Gloria has a friend she worked with that lives there so we went to see them. Had a great time with them on Saturday. They have a house on the side of a mountain with a fabulous view.

We also visited Saguaro National Park. It was a very neat place to see.

Took a trip to Old Tucson but did not stop. It was on old movie set that John Wayne used for 4 of his movies. We then went to the Desert Museum and thought that was a great place. We would recommend it if you're out this way.
