Mirror Sideswiped

[GVP-The Boxcar Children]

If you keep the white limit line in your passenger mirror you'll save many scrapes with other mirrors because the left mirror will most always be within your lane. "Most always" because some lanes are so narrow....

My wife just saw this photo and commented that it’s just wrong on so many levels. [emoji23]

I agree: that trailer is WAYYYY overloaded, and I don't see a license plate, or any working lights either.

Asian laws are not the same as laws within hte US.

When I was in Korea in the mid 70's it was amazing how much stuff papasan could get on the back of his 2 wheel bicycle and roll on down the road.

Well that sure sucks!

I find myself having to travel through Atlanta, GA quite a bit and and I-75 & I-85 can be rather challenging sometimes. It's common to find an 18-wheeler on each side of me, and I swear it looks like our mirrors are going to meet.

On my rig, the mirror on the passenger side sticks out a bit farther than on the drivers side, so I place my rig just a tad further to the left to compensate. It's hard sometimes to tell where you're at in the lane just by looking forward. But if you look for the lane markers in your mirrors, it's real easy to see where your rig is in relation to the lane your in. When I'm in congested traffic, I find myself making this "mirror check" several times a minute.

Good luck! Be strong, it'll get batter. RV'n ain't for sissies!

On the balance of our trip I figured out how to check my place in the lane. There is a screw cap on the left top of the dash. If I keep the left line lined up with the cap I’m ok.
I’ve learned how to re sync the slide motors.
Now I have to find the window leak between daily rain storms.
The biggest thing I learned was that we took way too much stuff with us.

Glad to hear that you're figuring it all out.

Third trip and now our dash is broken. Every trip = some issue.
I have not checked out the radio, however I expect it was not installed correctly.

Can't tell from pic what is broken. Axerra not coming on? There is a reset button on left side of head unit for that.

The dash trim around the radio cracked. One of the studs on the bottom popped off from the trim, and the air vent fell out of the padded part of the dash.
At a camp ground now and drinking red wine.
