We are in Elk River, Minnesota to have a dual tire equalization system called crossfire installed on our RV’s. As you can see in the picture below, the two tires are connected together, including a gauge, so they both have the same air pressure. On our RV’s the gauge is for 95 pounds and indicates if the tires are over or under inflated. This system allows us to make a quick tire pressure check each morning prior to departing and keeps both tires at the same air pressure.

Richard and Vera’s RV is on the left.

While Richard and Vera stayed around close to the shop, Char and I went to the Mall of America. For those of you who don’t know this mall, here are a few facts from their brochure. There are over 520 stores, 50 restaurants and the nation’s largest indoor amusement park featuring 24 rides.

This place is enormous. We walked around for a little while and had lunch prior to going back to our motor home.
