American Flag
Hi, I have a TT without a ladder and I was looking for a flagpole and mount to fly one or two flags. Looking for one to either put in the ground or mount to TT. Any one have any good suggestions or websites that may have some.

My neighbor has a plate that goes under her tongue jack that the flag pole mounts on. I don't know the name of it, though.

I subscribe to a YouTube channel called "Love Your RV". Here are some links to his blog and videos on flag poles.
Blog (includes a link to his ladder-mount flagpole on Amazon and his YouTube video):

and another video showing his pinbox-mounted flagpole

A friend of mine bought a bolt on receiver hitch and bolted it to his bumper then bought a flag pole mount that goes in the receiver. I think it was made by Camco.

I added a 10" piece of 2" PVC ( painted black) to the side of the hitch with U-bolts. I drop a Harbor Freight collapsible flag pole in it. Works great supports two 5X7 flags.

At the Bamaganza Rally last year there was someone who made awesome flag poles with PVC. Maybe he will see this and add to this.

Hey Doc, I have the HF flag pole (you can see it in my earlier picture post) and I think it is 20' possibly 25'. You'll see it at Chennango next month.

We go to NASCAR races several times a year, so of course we fly multiple flags. If you don't have a ladder, but have a rear bumper, you can buy two under-the-tire pole mounts, drill holes all the way through the bumper and attach the holder with long bolts and wing nuts. That's how we mount our two 16' fiberglass poles. I attached some strap guides to the top corners of the trailer rear to rope the flag poles to so they won't beat on the RV during gusty winds.
Fun stuff!!
We have a sturdy ladder and use an aluminum type of flagpole buddy that we found at a Good Sam's rally to use our 20' collapsible fiberglass flag pole.

We have a ladder and use a FlagPoleBuddy mount, and it's great. They also make a suction mount, for rigs without ladders:
Flush Mount

This is my set up a simple flag pole mount screwed into the frame. I currently run a solar spot light to keep it under light I am working on something that will tie into the camper for lighting it
