Wheel bearings
What is so different with RV wheel bearings that they have to be packed at least every year or two. My truck and car does not require this yearly maintenance, why does the RV axles??

Packing the bearings is so incredibly easy that I do it yearly. I go through absolutely everything every spring and have the confidence all is well throughout the camping season. In my opinion, it is pretty cheap insurance to ensure I have a happy and stress free season.
