Today, I'm off work and decided to rotate my tires on the rig. No silly.... not that kind of rotate! We've been sitting for 3 months now and plan on 3 more months, so jacked up the tires and rotated them 180*. Couldn't hurt anything that's for sure. While I was there, did a lube job on the shackles, checked tire pressure, washed wheels and tires, and treated the tires to some 303. (that stuff is as expensive as good whiskey!) Next I'll have to get real energetic and do another wash and a good clean and wax with my new Vaper high speed buffer. I have plenty of time to do that. It's been a while since I ran a wheel (mid 70's), so know it will take a little time to relearn how to do it. Cars are a lot different than an RV when it comes to buffing. Anyhow that's my story and I'm stickin' to it! rockin'

I have thought to myself for a long time that you suffer from ADHD, now I know it is true.
