I forgot to ask about this during our trip, but at one stop the system burped out about a cup of hydraulic fluid. I had started to put them down when my wife yelled to stop and I recalled them. The temps were between 112 and 120 during the drive so I just assumed the fluid itself had expanded and while retracting it was in an overflow capacity. I was going to get a bottle of fluid to have on hand today but wondered if I should have been concerned?

That sounds like a good question for HWH Monday.

Although some other models in 2004 had HWH jacks, my 2004 Sightseer has jacks made by Kwickee. Did they change over to HWH some time after 2004 for Sightseers?

Well I don't know when they made the change over to HWH. My Sonova is 2005 and has KwicKee jacks.
