I just got back from a 10 day trip in Alaska. We flew in and rented an RV and drove 1500 miles. The only trouble I had was with the fuel gauge. It worked just fine for me, but from where my wife was sitting in the passenger seat, according to her, we were always about to run out of gas. It was a mechanical gauge and the needle was quite a ways away from the dial, so from the side you would suffer from parallax.
Try to explain parallax to a sleepy, jet lagged women who has spent the last 36 years married to likes of me and then let me know how that works out for you.
We didn't kill each other over those ten days, so I call that a fabulous trip.
Now I am ready to head out to work with a truck which has no spare, so my bragging about my lack of truck issues in Alaska, and hardhell's post will undoubtedly jinx me and cause me to have a flat tire in a little while.
I will get back to y'all later on to share the story. If you don't hear from me, its been real nice knowing most of you.
