Close call alert!! We had friends stop by on their way to NE. They had blown 2 front tires on tow vehicle. Dodge dually for tow vehicle. Severe damage to front bumper, both front fenders & 1 running board as well as some light damage to doors & body panels further back ( mostly black marks & scuffing). At first it was thought that dry rot was the culprit. Further investigation revealed that he had miss-judged the "unlock" position on the ignition switch. He had been towing with the steering wheel locked. Just a note to make sure we all double check our equipment before starting out on the highway. No injuries other than to pride. No motor coach damage.
