Interesting! The problem I was referring to was parking on dirt and then a freeze. If you move your trailer, it rips up huge clods of dirt that are stuck to your tires. I've had that happen to my tractor more than once.

I used to use PT wood but it will rot over time when in contact with the ground. This year I got a pick up truck load of crush and run and some concrete pavers

I park the wheels of our Sunseeker on the type of door mats that are made out of recycled tire strips. The mats are resting on a gravel base. The contact is tire on tire, the mats prevent direct contact with ground moisture, and the open weave of the mat allows any above-ground moisture to drain away from the tires into the gravel.

Very good idea. I'll remember that for next year.

Parking on a plank gives the mice an extra 2"-3" to climb up into the camper!!!
