650 miles round trip and it was worth it, and I greatly appreciated and benefitted from Binarys willingness to drive a greater distance to the NE for an RV with me, that level of motivation inspired me. similarily AL driving down from the top of Scotland for an RV was equally inspiring and humbling. And of course SD often drives hundreds of miles in a round trip to RV with me. So its not all bad by any means.
