I did and you're right. I got it changed at Walmart. I watched the whole thing from the end of the bay. They didn't do everything they claimed but they changed the oil and filter. I watched them pull the oil from the synthetic container. The only disappointing part was I got the synthetic oil change but the sticker on the windshield says another one in 3k miles when the Attendant told me 6k.

I tow, so 6k is reasonable. Too many people doing things (hierarchy). No one responsible from end to end. Guessing guy changing oil didn't know he used synthetic? Not buying it. Will keep watch and try to rub out another 3k on the oil.

About the travel: Actually going from Las Cruces to Tucson in a wind storm was worse. Poor RV got tossed around like a bed sheet. Headwind all the way. The RV actually downshifted in cruise control when the wind blew hard enough.

In Yuma now. Nice ride out here but the wind is heavy during the day.

Past Texas. Didn't lose anything there so don't see myself going back. AZ taxes are hard to figure out if you're tracking expenses so either get savvy or toss in the towel. It changes as you change counties.

Safe travels to you and yours. Take care.
