The Good and the Bad

[C317414]

We went camping in our 2408 for the second time. The gas mileage was great; we averaged 12.8 mpg for 3 tanks of gas at 60-65 mph on hilly highways. This is with a 2010 Nissan Frontier, Crew Cab, 4x4, V6.

Right now I am at the campground watching a locksmith take apart the door lock mechanism. The deadbolt jammed in the locked position. I could not open it with the key or the inside handle (after I crawled in through the window).

Lock problems

Sorry you had problems with your lock. This reminds me that I should spray the lock as part of routine maintenance. We use TRIFLOW that we purchase at our local locksmith. Worth every penny and can be used around the home on locks.

The locksmith managed to get the door open. He took apart the lock assembly, cleaned and lubed everything, but the deadbolt is still not working smoothly. We both agreed that a new lock assembly is in order. I'll get one when I get home.
