I like to get er done so I can then relax. Wouldn't say I was the pit crew type (which where I cast my vote) but I don't mess around either. Just a steady do it till it's done mode. ------------- Mark Concord, NC 2017 RP 179 "Podzilla" 2011 Silverado 1500 4X4 |

If I sipped good KY bourbon I would never get it set up. But again I probably would not care.  ------------- 2017.5 RPod 179 2017 Jeep Unlimited Wrangler 2017 Chevy Colorado Z71 Off Road Crew Cab 2 Weiner dogs Great wife puts up with my BS ❤️ Thoroughbred Racing.

I do an immediate burst of energy to make it safe and secure, and then segue gracefully into the bourbon. After an initial amount of something aged at least two years, all else is merely adjustments to comfort. ------------- Life is good. |

My setup at the campground is solo, and as such, I always packed efficient and just what is needed. So, no extra outdoor stuff (chair-grill). Arrive, level, unhook. Dress for bike ride. Depart. No rush, 1 hour tops. ------------- 2017 ATC 7X20 Custom Toy Hauler 2013 R-Pod 177 (SOLD) 2013 VW Touareg TDI |

Ah yes...true nectar of the the Gods!! and the distillery that makes Crown for the world is about an hour and small change north of us....Sadly they don't have an outlet on site. ------------- Bob&Margaret 2017 179 2016 Toyota 4Runner 2 sets of Golf Clubs |

Have you ever tried 4 Roses Small Batch? Pretty good and a lot of folks outside KY do no know about it. ------------- 2017.5 RPod 179 2017 Jeep Unlimited Wrangler 2017 Chevy Colorado Z71 Off Road Crew Cab 2 Weiner dogs Great wife puts up with my BS ❤️ Thoroughbred Racing.

I used to be able to get away with, "I'm just checking level, hon!" I can't believe you're still getting away with that furpod! fred ------------- 2014 RPod 178 => https://goo.gl/CV446f - MyMods and Buying Habits 2008 4Runner Limited 4.0-liter V6 Yes, those are wild ponies dining on grass while dumping tanks! |

Y'know, I get there, level and unhitched, then the inside is someone else's problem. Cheers! ------------- Dirt Road Warrior 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited or 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee 2017 Rpod 179 Hood River |
