Turns out I got very lucky. This happened about 3 miles before I got home. I heard it but didn't know it till this morning

Glad you were alert and stopped to investigate, that could have gotten very ugly

Straps dry. 🙂

I had one snap in the back of the truck holding down the Toad. Didn't know it until today unloading everything.

I had one on Blou I wasn't loving before leaving. We decided it was ok. Had Cousin Eddie follow me. It loosened, but he said it didn't shift so he didn't alert me. We were using the radios.

It can happen easily. Actually, the rain loosened all of them a bit come to think.

Oh I didn't stop. Heard a pop but knew it wasn't a tire. Sounded like the anti-sway hitch adjusting . I couldn't get a finger between tire and fender but they never touched!

Got the Taloneer 500 clean-ish . . .

We left Monday Morning, stayed at an KOA and got home Tuesday evening. Had a blowout within sight of the Florida welcome center, I was able to limp it into a truck spot and change it off the highway. My left side camper tires had begun to delaminate. We didn’t have any major damage, just need to replace the freshwater tank fill neck. I’ll be ordering new load range G, 14 ply tires to replace the 15 month old load range E, 10 ply tires. Luckily I had the tools and a spare aboard, I was able to get it changed and back on the road in a timely manner!

Yes ma’am, thank you, it was nice to meet you as well. We’re trying to be able to make a MOM ride.

Thank you sir. We made it just a little slower than expected, after that happened our speed went down to 60mph (to the nearest tire shop for a replacement tire for the other failing tire).

That’s what we use and they double as ramps for oil changes on the truck and etc.

Don’t, I didn’t know about the Trailer Aid ramp till another pointed it out.
It’s been a lifesaver. I wound up using it twice that day.

How can one small SxS have so much dirt tucked in to so many nooks and crannies?

You should talk to an engineer and ask them why it be like it is.

That would be about as useful as talking to myself.
(witch I do probably more than I realize)

Someone said there where some honda guys at the Takeover, did any one ask?
We should start a tread 'what I learned form the honda squad', followed by a thread for 'what they (should have) learned from us'.

I and many others showed then the s***ty door hinges
