I was recently broken beside the road while on the way home with my “new” 40’ bus. Not being familiar with it’s mechanicals at all was faced with two major leaks simultaneously that did not make it undriveable but likely would have if left unaddressed before I got it home to more familiar resources. I am mechanically inclined, not afraid to get dirty when necessary, and was armed with a pretty good selection of tools. Even still I was extremely lucky to have stopped to evaluate and sleep within walking distance of a Walmart, Taco Bell, car wash (with outside bay), and NAPA store. I reached out for help via text and phone to friends that were very knowledgeable but 800 miles away and this forum. This forum and its members were very helpful, encouraging, and supportive and before the sun set on the next day my son (11) and I were back on the road and headed towards home. By the way....thanks a ton for the support, advice, and encouragement.....it meant the world to me and made the difference in my success.
All that to get to what I’m really thinking...I have a business very near I-70 in the middle of Missouri. I would be happy to be a resource to other travelers who need some help, parking off the highway, or just local advice. Is there a sticky or map anywhere that is often checked when someone needs help or a place to park?
