Being retired you may work at this but there will be no cash payment.

What? You guys don't get a check from IRV2... When I asked about mine they told me to go to Helen Waite.

Now that the thread is dead... we can start to solving some of the major rv problems.
First one is what to do in a front steer tire blowout.
It is so simple!! Just put your jacks down.
It will keep the front end from dropping down and will slow you at the same time. By time you are stopped you will already be jacked up and you can just put your spare on.

Great sounding theory. There are and will be dis-believers out there but a video of the process will change a lot of the doubting Thomas attitudes.

Then that means you carry an open frame.

Then you will have to run on the jacks till you find another tire. I just know someone will come up with jack pressure monitors will be needed!

If you set the jacks to auto level is that like cruise control and auto drive? Theoretically in auto level you should be able to go back, make a coffee and set it on the table without it spilling.
