What I thought would be my last day on the road turned out to go nothing like I planned. Not only did I have some problems with my EV glamping trailer , which needed a repair before I could go on, but then the road I was planning on taking was closed and all of the hotels in the region got booked out solid.
But, while I stood in the shade of a tree and drank some water, my brain kicked back into gear. It dawned on me that I probably just needed to reset the computer by removing the negative terminal. With my multi-tool, I did this, put the power back, and then tried to start the car up. Success! The other problem was that my Harbor Freight tires were running out of tread, with one about completely bald. After burning through two sets of those tires on this trip , I decided to upgrade to something better. Online reviews show that these tires often don’t last very long. Discount Tire didn’t have anything, and wouldn’t be able to get anything in for days. So, I had to get Harbor Freight tires again, changing them myself in the afternoon heat.
People quickly reserved every motel in Roswell, and then started fanning out in every direction looking for a bed to sleep in. One of my mom’s old friends found Artesia to be full, and then found Carlsbad to also be full. She ended up driving all the way into El Paso to find a motel, while many other people went all over the eastern side of New Mexico filling up the motels as far north as I-40.
The only room we were able to find was in Santa Rosa, and only because the owner of a “vintage” motel didn’t do any kind of reservations, online or by phone. He had some rooms available, so we were able to drive up there and get a place to sleep for the night. This put us an hour further away from home instead of closer, and with charging that ended up taking a lot of time the next day.
