RE: Border crossings about to get even worse
I had to drive through the X-Ray machine at Lukeville, AZ with my 45' coach towing a truck. It was interesting because I was told to go through at some speed, I don't remember exactly but perhaps 10 MPH. It was faster than I was comfortable with given the narrow passage so I just did the speed I was comfortable with, about a walking speed. The agent wanted me to speed up but I didn't.

RE: Windows 10 Laptop Question
It looks like the RAID 1 will do what I need. The laptop has Thunderbolt 3 /USB C 3.2. A two drive enclosure would be convenient. I'll have to do some more reading about NAS and RAID, you have me pointed in the right direction.

RE: Windows 10 Laptop Question
Perhaps I should start another thread but since you are on the subject of RAID, NAS etc., what is the best way to backup the laptop which travels in the camper for months at a time? I have been thinking of having two portable hard drives. I would copy an image to each?? The laptop has a 2TB SS drive.

RE: 4' LED Shop Lights In Costco?
I have no way to check this from down here but it's worth a shot. Reasonable value?
I replaced all of my 4' fluorescent lights with LED, some were the Costco Feit brand and they work great. I also replaced some 4' bulbs with LED from Costco & they also work good. That saved replacing the fixtures. Nice to have instant brightness with no warmup time.

RE: Mail Forwarding Cost. Virtual Mail vs Priority Mail
I really like Informed Delivery, but it's very imperfect. We get things all the time that weren't included in their emails.
X2 plus they USPS loses forwarded packages frequently. They seem to evaporate even with a tracking number.

RE: Rocky Point or Puerto Penasco Mexico
I thought I would just float this out here in internet land. Rocky Point or Puerto Penasco is open for RV tourism.
Or Not. A local Arizona physician was charged $300 fine for not wearing a mask in his car with his family a day or two ago. thats a little hard to believe. 300 us or 6000 pesos? I would have heard about that as is so far out of the norms it would have been discussed in our local boards
I'm reviving this to put it back to sleep. I relayed a story that for whatever reason I was told and was apparently total BS. There are no issues here in Rocky Point. I apologize to the group and to Russ for that.
Another Norcold 1200 fire destroyed a motorhome here a few days ago.

It's a funny story from a friend who was getting checked out by her GYN.......He was the one who paid the fine :) I would have liked to have been the fly on the wall.
How would you have heard about it?

Russ, what are the current driving/mask restrictions? Does the second person in the vehicle still have to be in the back seat with a mask on? What about beach access, is it still restricted entry and exit points? Other mask limitations? Can I load up 6 people in the same vehicle now? Restaurant restrictions?

RE: AV gas for the generator
What's the point of paying for / running AV gas?
If you want ethanol free then just buy ethanol free. It's readily available just about anywhere.
Ethanol free is nearly impossible to find in some parts of the country. Marina boat fuel and racing fuel is about it.
Airplane spark plugs accumulate balls of lead from 100LL avgas. The only advantage I see is if you plan to leave the generator sit unused for years.

RE: Freightliner chassis
I have noticed some owners who seem to detest Freightliner chassis that is used in our choice of motorhome. One said he would rather walk and others with some horror stories how Freightliner wouldn't help them now that their motorhome was off warranty.
It's similar to the Ford, Chevy, Chrysler argument.
With the Freightliner Serial Number they can get every chassis part in short order. Their parts and owner support is excellent. I wish I could say that about my Monaco.

RE: Bad air quality--finally taped a house filter on the A/C
Is that on the Return side?
YES...then you will end up with diminished return airflow which can lead to Evap Coil Icing up especially with fan speed on low
And make the compressor run at higher temperatures and pressures reducing its life. It's a bad idea.

RE: Duracell Golf Cart Batteries GC 2
I have a 2001 National Tradewinds and have been using GC 2 Duracell batteries for years. My current ones are 4 years old and I'm thinking of replacing them. When I pulled them up on line at Sam's club The ratings were like 2. What 6 volt batteries are you all using, I need 4. There is no Sam's Club in Saint George Utah.
There was a height difference in the more expensive ones which is what I use and 235 amp hour rating. Batteries plus Bulbs sells them, order online & pick up at store with 10% discount.

RE: Latest travel warning
https://mx.usembassy.gov/mexico080620-travel-advisory-level-4-do-not-travel/
I hope the link works. The USA has issued the strongest travel warning I have ever seen . Almost like a biblical warning of 7 plagues. Very extreme and bound to harm Mexico tourism for a long time.I was shocked.
There are a lot of things to consider when travelling South of the border. Residents of Puerto Penasco, Sonora have mentioned avoiding the road to Caborca which surprised me as I wouldn't have given it a thought otherwise. I suppose the economic pinch is affecting everyone.
A group of us plan to visit Puerto Penasco in October but beach restrictions and travel restrictions may make it more trouble than it is worth. Sure wouldn't want to catch a cold there and deal with that.
