I have a 4X4 and a good heavy tow road and have pulled fellow RV ers out of stuck situations many times, have never accetped any cash for doing it.

There was one time I spent 4.5 hours helping a fellow camper, but did accept a cold beer afterword. I just tell them to help out the next person they see in trouble, that will cover payment for my time.
Good Karma if and when I ever need help.

Ya ever see those old Disney "nature" documentaries on Africa? They show a beautiful shot of a water hole when a couple of gazelles peacefully drinking from it. Then in the very next shot, they show a lion creeping thru the grass, stalking the gazelles.

The cameraman knows what gonna happen next. Does he do anything to help the Gazelles?

Sanity comes from knowing when you are the Gazelle, when you are the Lion, and when you are just a cameraman.

That benz is not worth much. I like how the suspension sits.
