Yea, that's it... rub it in and you're not going to make any friends here!!
Just kidding!! Sounds like a fun trip and made even more enjoyable because you don't have the huge fuel bills to anticipate!! I'm jealous!!

If you need any parts for your A/C installation, let me know. I have tons of leftover parts (various hoses, grills, etc)
