BEOTCHOFANOOOOSKY!
Thanks Spider 
yeah pretty suckAge of a day 
We had him tow it to our local RV guy who will fix it. I guess that fluid is Flammable so not starting it again was smart.
Auto Jacks were / are a good idea / invention butt yeah they can be trouble at times, our 1st outing to Joshua Tree in the Thor they got the front end up too high and they would not retract
the ranger was super sweet and he helped C-6 do the manual retraction with the long crank

SonofaBEOTCH!
ing in the RV yesterday headed to Camp at Fletcher View / Mt Charleston just past Baker Ca when the Alarm starts BEEPING and yeah its quite irritating 
Light board says the Jacks are Down 
They were NOT
turn lights off then hit raise all Jacks thinking maybe they were slightly down
See smoke and then luckily able to take next exit, sitting on the side of the exit ramp investigate and all 4 Jacks appear to be UP
Soon as we re start engine and release E Brake SMOKE billows from the front end
Out looking at WTF is happening we see fluid GUSHING out below, NOT from the engine but yeah from the Jacks
apparently the line broke or something & all the Hydraulic Fluid dumped
The smoke was due to it hitting HOT parts, so yeah each try at starting then releasing brake to move caused more to dump & more smoke
Thor Rep said do not drive it as the Jacks could possibly drop and then brake off & hit a vehicle behind us, ( little did she know that would have been the Mini we had on the tow dolly )
K shortening the
Had to pay to have it towed $$$ no place in either Vegas or anywhere close could touch it for weeks so yep all the way back to Blowmont
Luckily we were fine & HAD the Mini to just NOT a fun outing as we sat for at least 2 1/2 hours awaiting an evaluation from Thor and then a tow truck

So lame! I had to Google why they’re stolen (makes sense, for the metal) and it’s happening in Canada too. Wild!

The CC theft has either gone down, or just no longer newsworthy here. The upside is that everything with the word "Hybrid" attached to it gets zinged first. I just hope the dang Element can still get to the repair shop to either get a new one. . . or get driven to the scrapyard so we can put money down on a new bike hauler.
