So where in tarnation is the power steering reservoir? The manual says it's in the engine compartment, and so I've hefted the bed up about 3 times looking for it. I see the a/c condenser along with it's 30' tubes to the front panel, but nothing else on the accessory case that looks like the power steering fill-em-up.

I even checked the genset compartment up front thinking OK, maybe its in there. I also followed the steering shaft down through the floor but all I see is a universal joint on each end of a shaft going to the front axle.

Supposedly it's got a stick to check the level.

(Don't ask how many miles I've put on the coach without checking the level. Red Face)

The value to a site like this is that you can ask your questions and and get some good and great answers answers. I know in my case I am driving a RV built on a bus chassis. Today, i take the car to the dealer and always mostly buy advanced extended warranties.
