For the past 2 years or so, we haven't been able to go camping as much as we'd like to. Sometimes the TM sits unused for 5 or 6 months at a time . During these times, we make it a point to jack it up (one side at a time) every month or so and turn the wheels about 1/3 so that they don't develop a flat spot. Once we figured out how to do this (4 x 4 board on one side, plus the bottle jack, 4 x 4 plus another 2 x 6, or another, depending on where it ends up in the driveway, on the other side) it isn't that big of a deal. Seems to be working so far.
