How has your age changed your rving?

I am including the time and/or miles per day you are willing to drive to the maintenance and repairs you are willing to do yourself.
Personally, three years ago we changed our driving habits from whatever it takes to get there NOW to a maximum of 6 hours per day or 300 miles. I used to tow at 70-75 mph. Now 65-67 mph.
I am still doing much of the maintenance and many of the repairs. This year I quit with anything on the roof; i did however replace 3 plumbing vents and an attic vent and reseal each one. I had a total ankle replacement in January this year and still don’t have all the necessary balance back and only about 60% of my previous agility and strength.
Some things such as wheel bearing repacking will wait until next year to see if I will continue to do them. If I have a flat on the road, as I fired the worthless GS roadside non assistance, I will change it myself with the aid of my battery powered impact gun and the self leveling on the fiver. I turn 70 this year in December.

How about you?
