    Montana travel

    We’re headed east to upper Michigan, pulling a 22’ travel trailer. Considering taking US2 across Montana and points East. Wondering about the number of small towns we’ll have to drive through, and how it will slow our travel. Thoughts?

    In all your travels, who makes the best pie?

    No, mom doesn’t count… unless she owns a roadside pie ship. Who, in your experience, makes the best pies — doesn’t matter whether it’s a fruit pie or savory meat and vegetables type? Two favorites: Murray Family Farms off CA Highway 58 near Bakersfield, CA, and Leoda’s Kitchen and Pie Shop...

    Galvanized wheels vs painted for travel trailers?

    This may be a weird question. From what I see, galvanized rims seem to be mostly used on boat trailers, but would they be bad for some reason or look dumb on a travel trailer? I would think they would have more corrosion resistance than painted wheels. I've been looking for tire/wheel...
