About this forum

Diesel Pusher Forum opened in September 2025 for people who own a Class A coach with the engine in the back. Most of what gets talked about here sits on a Freightliner or Spartan chassis with a Cummins and an Allison, but a Newell with a Series 60 or an old Foretravel with a Cat is just as welcome. Forty five feet or thirty four, it does not matter.

It is run by Bruce L., mod_bruce_l on the boards. Bruce spent 29 years behind the parts counter at a heavy truck dealer in Fergus Falls, Minnesota, and is on his second pusher, a 2015 Ventana that spends the winter blown out behind his shop in Perham unless he is driving it to Texas. He reads the contact mailbox himself, usually with coffee, sometimes days late in deer season.

Money

The forum is member supported. Bruce pays for the domain and the server, and a few regulars chip in each year. There are no ads, and nobody pays to have a thread written or moved.

House rules

• Give the coach year, the model and the chassis on every tech question. A 2019 coach can ride on a 2018 chassis, and the chassis year decides recalls, parts and tire age.
• Say what you paid. Buying threads without numbers get a note from a mod asking for them.
• No selling coaches in threads. There is no classifieds board on purpose. Linking a public listing to make a point is fine.
• If you work for a dealer, a broker, an auction or a transport company, say so in your posts. Staff posting as customers get removed.
• Fill in your signature as coach / chassis / toad. It saves everybody a round of questions.
• Mods move posts to the right board and leave a note saying where. Threads get locked rarely and with a reason.

What this is not

Not a dealer, not a broker, not a Cummins shop. When somebody here gives you a pressure, a torque value or a fluid spec, check it against the manual for your chassis before you bet your coach on it.
