Seen one like that before. There is an extention that hooks onto the lower rung so that it hangs down to the ground.

We've seen some pretty interesting things...will have to remember to try to sneak some pictures!

I think my biggest pet peeve are the folks who sneak into the park after the rangers are gone and camp without paying and then sneak out early in the morning. (Like they're fooling anybody.)

The ladder on the Class A pusher is shortened to allow access to the engine without having to mess with the ladder. You probably need to check the engine more often than you need to get on the roof.

I saw that exact setup at a local campground we camped at over easter. I marveled and waved at him as he was pulling out. Really wish I had my cellphone in my pocket at that moment! I've been scouring google images trying to find a pic of it, to no avail. Wonder if it was the same rig we saw?

I really wish one of you two took a picture- that's exactly how I want to carry a golf cart!

Nope, just a bunch of zombies flipping trailers over.

Fixed it.

I saw this in a campground last year. It's a bicycle/elliptical machine. I had never seen one of these before so I googled the brand name Ellipitgo, not cheap.

You've pretty well eliminated all ways of supporting anything on top of the cab with the "No uprights in front of the windshield" restriction.

My sister owns a couple of these things, I tried one out when we went camping together and it's definitely a work out

It looks like it would be a good workout but I don't think I'd try pumping one of these things uphill.

I think I've just about run out of pics to add to this thread.

When you’re camping on the Gulf Coast it’s important to have a weather warning system. This fellow hung up his Hurricane Detector. At the bottom the sign it says, when the last bottle breaks run like hell.
