Brake dragging? Bearing burned out?

Not specific to this topic but it could aid. I always travel whether car, boat or with the travel trailer carrying one of the now cheap IR temperature reading guns. First stop is a check all around of tires, bearings and brakes.

Roger texted 11am & said they would have to head north toward illinois, away from the weather. When he texted again around 1:15 said they had driven around an hour & had not had anymore of the earlier issues. Haven't heard from them since. I suggested they take a look on barthmobile when they can. Hoping him & Alison will update us all on forum soon.

That issue shouldn't be overlooked - if you're in contact with them, urge them to have the issue checked out NOW!

If they are close I would take a look and help if I can or recommend local help. I have another earlier commitment of someone that has not gotten their stuff together. That one came earlier so it has some precedence.

Rusty, I totally agree. I have contacted Roger and told him that is is URGENT that he have this looked at right away, to not drive another mile without getting it checked out. Will keep you up to date.
