    I wanted to add something to the retirement conversation..

    I've seen it go either way for people. I think you really need to work at keeping yourself busy/active. Traveling and hobbies are good. Getting out of the house is important.

    I actually plan on working part time at a bait shop, or something else that is easy, after I retire. Partly to keep myself active, and partly because I'm sure I'll need the money. Aside from that, lots of camping, fishing, kayaking, and hopefully traveling.

    You should probably order a roof rack, or basket, to attach it to. :D

    And, yes, it's definitely not as convenient as throwing it in the bed or on the tonneau cover. Rock sliders will give you something sturdy to stand on while you tie it down. ;)

    Because I am going to Alaska and have been warned by others that have driven there and back to carry 2 spares or suffer the consequences.

    That's why!!

    Speaking of Alaska, I made my campsite and boat excursion reservations yesterday. Boat company had a cyber Monday, 30% off sale that I didn't know about. :woot:

    Say it don't spray it. :D

    That makes more sense. I was imagining 2 spares was related to some LarryDangerfield shenanigans.

    thats what a lot of people say and then you see someone in a Subaru or vw bus that drove all the way just fine. I think its a matter of luck more than anything.
