My wife is also a 'turn the key and go' driver. Not that she doesn't know how to check the pressure and oil, she just does not have the habbit. So, it is up to me to make the checks about once a month.

As for the lugnuts, ouch! Usually, the tire guys spin them on with an air wrench and I wind up loosening them one at a time and re-torquing them.

BTW, did the floods get to you? We were in Glacier NP from 6/16-19 and got rain all 3 days. We lucked out and visited the Canadian side on the 17th, before the rain washed out the highway.
I know, we were close to you, but there is no good direct way to visit and return to Glacier on the same day. We will have to wait until I can schedule a trip to Banff and Kimberly.
