Sold it.

It has one slowly leaking tire. And by slow, I put in 5-10 psi every couple of months. I also have three newer wheels with matching tires that come with it, so the leaky one can be swapped out. Otherwise it’s in good condition.

I think with plans getting shuffled, my wife and I will be going to East, so we can help out there.

I don't think you're overthinking it. I also tend to put attention on all those places when I'm washing, to try and keep them as free from salt as I can.

One thing I do is carry an extra hand-held CB. That way I can hand it to my spotter (or use it to spot) and communicate directly with the driver. And never EVER follow an instruction unless you are confident you understand. Never fear asking for a repeat, or further clarity if you're the driver...

I agree. You need the freedom to be able to explore, without feeling anxious about your next fill-up, or being stranded.

Beautiful!

I'll be there. Looking forward to it!
