The Woman's Guide to RV Maintenance

Lately, I've been getting advice on how to purchase and install tow bars and base plates for a TOAD (which BTW, is really a FROG... four rolling on ground) .  (TOAD actually means "towed on a dolly", which isn't going to happen).  I'm going to call Zippy (my car) a FROG because (aha!) it's green.

Unfortunatly, I  don't have any mechanical ability or upper body strength and am completely useless when it comes to installing things. I'd be terrified to see poor little Zippy flying off a cliff edge because I didn't have the strength to get the tow bar installed tightly.

I generally use the Women's Guide to Maintenance: if it moves and it's not supposed to, you use duct tape. If it doesn't move and it's supposed to, you use WD40.

Everything else I pay for.

Prince Porketta joins the team

Not physically, but in spirit.  For now....

His mission, should he choose to accept it, is to figure out where all Diners, Drive-ins and Dives are between Vancouver and Ontario.  He'll also have to figure out how many times we'll have to jog around the Beast to work off some of those meals.

The royal team of Prince Porketta and Nui, Queen of the South Seas, will be launching the Beast in early June.
