How do I make rookie mistakes, let me count the ways...
Depending on the fuel gauges and their apparent showing gas when I ran out in the middle of the Mojave desert.
And doing it again near Lubbock, Texas on the maiden voyage.
Filling up to the top on the same trip and seeing gas cascade down from the tanks and Onan feed at a station in California.
I had the choice of waiting for the EPA to show up or bug out and chance a fire.
Not doing Matt Colie's walkaround and losing the cover of the refrigerator outside.
Working on the air conditioning while there was a brake line getting ready to go in Montgomery, Texas. Discovering I never did have much front brake, the big intermediate Leigh Harrison disc brake was doing all the work before the line gave way.
Brakes first.
