RE: [A/S] Re: checklist




<<Matt Worner humored us with "DON'T forget to remove them prior to moving
the trailer.  (Also don't ask how I know, please.)
Note that the TT is VERY intolerant of being towed with the trailer.  Doing
that will make a Twisted Tongue Twister which is only good for anchoring
your trash bag.(Please to not inquire how this knowledge was gained, either.
Suffice
it to say that I have a lot of blue ratcheting box wrenches.)While you are
setting this up is a good time to verify that the hitch socket is high
enough to clear the ball, too.  Easier than pushing the trailer home
backwards. Lots of other tricks out there, and lots of friendly folks
willing to share.  Go to rallies.  Enjoy.>>

Matt - May I respectfully suggest you jot all these experiences and
suggestions down and put them into a book. I've had a great late afternoon
hoot reading your post and realizing I'm not the only one to drive off from
the RV park, right slap dab in front of the newly acquired WBCCI local
chapter friends, with my hitch jack still down. And, oh my God - the
indignity!! Like I said - Do a book!!
