We plan to put a slight one there but we don’t have much room for much. I did put the drain towards the center of the van in hopes the crown of the road will take care of any excess. Stand by to see if my idea is dumb or not lol

Might be a tad late, but, have ya tried using a bob to check squareness? Just a thought. Oh, I usually consider driving on Nebraska roads ‘off road’. With all those state taxes and sky high vehicle registration costs they charge you sand lizards, one would think the state would have better roads and be able to clean them off in a timely manner. At least your not in Iowa, 😂jk. All jokes aside, I love these videos and it makes me happy to y’all. I’m always wondering if I’ll see ya out and about while kicking in Kearney/GI.

Here's an idea, take your square and go visit a RV dealership and see how poorly everything is built. If you had the time I would suggest going to Cape Canaveral and take a good look at the last Saturn 5 rocket and how it was built, you won't believe they flew it. You are doing great don't sweat the small stuff. It's not going to matter when you've been driving all day and you are parked at night "Riding the storm out".

good to know WI isn't the only state that did such an awful job of plowing this winter. we had those snow pot holes from mid december until the end of january when it finally snowed enough to fill them all in. then warmed up and melted it all.

It’s really hit or miss. Some years, like this one, we get a ton of snow and cold. But then we have winters like last year where it barely snows and rarely dips into single digit temps.
