Has anyone added a standalone Auto Gen Start to an older 99 Diplomat. I see there are several on the market, some text you others just have dials and I see even Cummins makes their own, however it looks like the Cummins will not start if shore power is lost. Anyone’s opinions are welcome good and bad

The first time I did our coach I used a snap lock type laminate floor. It actually held up well but unfortunately I had a leak that caused soft floor and had to tear it all up again but was surprised the floor was still in good shape, when I installed the snap lock I did use a glue in the snap lock joints (not on the floor) also and it helped as the flooring came out in pretty large section. This was floating floor.
This time I went back with LVP Pergo from Lowes, the salesman said it was the best the offered, time will tell. This is a floating floor and so far so good. Here's a link I did on the install, not fixing the floor wasn't an option, turned out to be ~4X6' area right behind the passenger seat. After fixing the floor putting in the LVP just took time.

Finally getting around to taking the carpet out of my coach. What type of flooring have people used? Was thinking stick down tiles vs floating floor. What works well we have a pair of golden retrievers and it would be nice to eliminate the carpet. What also have people used in the step area?

We have a 99 Diplomat with 30k miles we use it frequently and take our 2 golden retrievers with us. We have been to a few campgrounds that have lost power while we were out to have it get warm inside the coach. I would like to add an auto gen start for the 7500 onan. In doing some research onan used to make a plug and play ec30 switch to start the gen, but have discontinued it. I have the stock inverter and remote panel in place still. Anyone know of a way to do this without replacing the factory inverter?

MODERATOR's EDIT.
Brian @Kuhlbreeze just PM'ed me with his 1999 Diplomat Tire Data Plate. Based on the Hankook Inflation Table and his 10K Front and his 19K rear Axle, he will be OK at 90's or so. BUT, if he weighs and gets a LOWER inflation MOST folks would advise NOT TO GO BELOW 90...based on all the comments from folks and knowledgeable folks, most experts and our members say not to go below 90 for a MH tire. Therefore 90 all the way around will be fine for his Axle ratings I have attached the Photo to clear things up. Thanks to Brian for sending it to me...END of EDIT
I have new Hankook tires 275/70R22.5 load range J in our 99 diplomat wondering what tire pressures you guys like I was running 100psi in all seems like a slight harsher ride
