Not possible? Tight with honey suckle or major pot holes? Any other places to park nearby?

It's not honeysuckle or anything like that, there are just some deep holes in the road that make the rear of my trailer drag pretty good, but it's pretty low.

I broke the trailer plug off the back of my toter van last year on that access road. It's got some deep holes and an area that used to be a foundation for a building (or something) that is concrete and makes for some pretty abrupt ups and downs. The trailer and van scraped a lot. I was REALLY happy I didn't take the big motorhome back there.

jeepmanjeff · 02-22-2012, 12:47 PM

wow. That too bad to hear. Scott I never got a text from you. 513-250-7941. We need to find another place to park. The trailer is high, I don't know about the RV though. Maybe we can walk it first and if doable head down, if not go to the hotel parking lot and then drive there.

I hate driving my rig on the road with 2 PSI in the tires!

94Dodge Truggy · 02-22-2012, 12:59 PM

You will be fine! My trailer can make it in there.
