| Post subject: | Tips for Transporting I11s in Hot Truck Bed |
Just got my I11s. Now I need to figure out proper way to transport. I have a 6 foot truck bed with hard cap. I am concerned with heat exposure so I am considering some sort of thermal blanket or container to wrap it in during work hours in possible hot sun summer conditions. A few articles I have read say that material and seams could fail or wear more quickly due to extreme heat storage and frequrnt inflation /deflation. What I have come up with so far: 1)Thermal protection during vehicle storage during hot or sunny day while at work. 2) Minimal deflation whenever possible to prevent over-inflation seam damage in hot vehicle. 3)Randomize folding pattern in vehicle to prevent cracks or hull damage. 4)Never over- inflate when used especially when hot and monitor hull pressures. 5)Uv protectant/ conditioner? 6)Rinse with fresh water and dry after each use especually after salt water useage. I am wondering what else I should be factoring in. I really wnat this to last. Any tips or thought greatly appreciated. |
