The point of my post was not to discuss carrying spare parts or tires(I have spare parts on board) or performing Preventative Maintenance before a trip but rather to get folks thinking about what happens when you have a mechanical breakdown beyond your capabilities or the spares on board.
We are going through our second breakdown in a week and under 400 miles. There isn’t a spare out there that is going to prevent a rig to derate with a def issue or one that decides to blow a trans or engine in the middle of no damn where.
Simple things like how much water is in the fresh water tank or how full are the blacks and grey tanks when you are residing in a broke RV on the road or in a parking lot can be critical.
Now I am not talking about RV house related items such as slide issues or AC not working. Those types of things are an inconvenience and not necessarily a trip disrupter.
Just think about how a mechanical breakdown would impact you on the road.
