    I never cease to be amazed at some of the shoddy materials and workmanship on RVs.  It doesn’t seem to matter how much you pay for the rig, you better be prepared to spend a lot more.  Recently I looked in the rear view mirror at the front of my fiver and noticed the whole thing was on a slant.  All the leaf springs on one side had sheared off.  I took it to a company that specializes in big truck suspensions and they said my suspension (from the factory) was junk.  They replaced all the springs and related hardware for under 1k.  I thought that was a small price to pay for peace of mind.  Don’t get me going on OEM tires!

    I’ve had a Viair for about three years, and wouldn’t be without it. Have used it many times, usually for changing tire pressures between hot and cold temperature locations, but have also had a few emergencies. I like the blower attachment, and probably use that as much as the tire pressure pump. Great review, Ray.

    Ray, just been catching up on old posts and ran across this one about the c crane radio. I, too, am a late night listener, and have heard the ads for this company on a program called Coast to Coast AM with George Noury. It used to be hosted by Art Bell and originated in Pahrump, NV. Most of it is pretty far out stuff: alien invaders, big foot and topics like that, but I get a kick out of it and sometimes they have some interesting guests. I’ve been tempted to get the same radio. Do you still like it now that you’ve had it for a couple of months?

    We live in Arizona, which has pretty liberal gun laws. When I was taking the concealed carry class, they emphasized learning the laws in the states you will be traveling in, just as James said. We go to Mexico now and then, and we have to make sure there are no bullets, powder, cases or anything related to guns in our rig, let alone guns. You know all the horror stories. In the states, we always have something along for protection–never had to use it.
