After not much thought, I decided the travel trailer is way more replaceable than the Studebaker. If I can make another trip I’ll grab my XJ, and if a third is possible, the travel trailer. A friend came earlier to drive the K5 to his house. It’s all just stuff, but it’d be awfully inconvenient to replace all of it. Hopefully the flames get under control tonight- 2020 is out for blood.

Sucks to have to force rank like that, but looks like you’ve got everything pretty logically ordered.

Yeah hopefully it goes well, we are on a hill surrounded by water, the fire that was in our county was over the mountain from us. It’s snowing ash right now. Good luck, stay safe.

Good choice.  Fingers crossed the most you have to deal with is some ash.

I showed my wife your pic of the Studie on the trailer - she said, “oh hell no, we’d be taking the travel trailer.”  Continue to make good decisions and stay safe.

I’d go with the Studebaker as well as there are never going to be more of them... Still sucks that you have to choose what to save, though. I can’t imagine what all of you who are having to deal with with this are going through. Good luck, my thoughts and prayers are with y’all.

Please stay safe out there. I’ll be praying that you and your family get out safely and don’t come back to a pile of ash instead of a home.

The Stude is a tough pick but a good one. Obviously you need to tow the travel trailer with the XJ though. Do you have a place lined up to stay where you can keep the vehicles?

The travel trailer is 33' long and weighs 8,500 pounds. It would break the XJ in half!

I work at the Portland airport- the work parking lot is secure and surrounded by acres of pavement.

I went back for the XJ, so the only one left is the S10 Blazer, which I don’t have much money in, but it sucks because I’ve been making good progress on the 5.3/4L80E  swap.

Godspeed...

Don’t risk going back if it’s looking too sketchy.
