This is a frightening thread (as a Safari owner)!!!!

Anyway, just one recommendation, I was told this about bugs on the trailer.

In the night, after a bug smashes on the trailer (vehicle for that matter), dew forms on the bug. Then, during the day, the sun converts the bug guts (technical term for bug insides, now outside) and dew into acid. The acid then eats the clearcoat or paint. He stressed then need to quickly remove bugs every evening before retirering. IT seems to work, they come off very easy when fresh.
