b"[fruitful_ibox_row]\\nOn this week's show I talk about coping with the unexpected car (or trailer) breakdown on the road. Who to call? What to do? Roadside assistance benefits and who to trust are some of the issues discussed. I review what happened when my well loved F150 broke down on the Pa Tpk on my way to Ohio alone.\\n\\n250 miles from home my truck broke down and I needed to have it towed to The nearby Ford dealership.\\n\\nThe truck was placed on a flatbed and the trailer was towed behind.!\\n\\nI got an unexpected little retreat when I landed at a campground alone while I waited for my truck to be evaluated.\\n\\nMy wonderful next door campers treated me to pizza pies for dinner. The truck was declared unfixable but the weekend was still made up of all the things I love about camping - Making friends of strangers, camp fires, walks and fun food!\\n\\nThe Base Camp by Airstream is out and debuting at the Hershey RV Show this weekend. Airstream of South Florida will have them on site by October 1st.\\n\\nThe Hershey RV Show begins September 14 and runs through the 18th. Stop by and see the new Serro Scotty at the Go Little Guy booth."
