'Well, an update..Yahoo started playing nice finally, and I've downloaded about 120 files that I thought might be pertinent to the 1998 Safari Sahara Cat powered RV.
I'm planning on a restoration on my bus come next year; after a moving to Virginia a year ago, I have a nearly finished 3 car garage and a separate framed out/roofed bus barn/machine shop. It probably will be well into 2020 before I start that process, but with a possible Yahoo Groups shut down, decided to save as many reverent docs as possible.  And there are some gems, namely wiring related!
As a 'lurker' I surely appreciated all the experiences and advice related by all the folks on this group; someday I hope to be able to contribute in a meaningful way as well!

A wealth of information! 
There seems to be a bit of a question about whether Yahoo will shut down Groups, but this is consistent with what they were saying last year when Yahoo got bought - they really have no interest in it; there's been no improvements to make it competitive at all.They just pay attention to their business plan...
