I don't use a "foot" for my tongue, only the caster that came with he T@b. For those of you doing likewise, especially those who boondocks, do you feel the need to put anything under the wheel when camping in a spot that could get like soup if it rained hard? I have a Camco wheel dock, but trying to decide if I need to pack it. I am thinking of

We've been known to move the tongue around in the mud or deep gravel by moving the plywood, then rolling onto it, then moving the other piece and rolling onto it, etc.
I bought one of those 'wheel docks' while we waited for our Tab to arrive, and have used it once!

Ok. I admit it. Sometimes a good mallet whack is necessary (has lithium grease on inside coupler and latch mechanism already). If I'm really ticked off, I threaten it with a claw hammer (Zombies are still undeterred by the violence.. they seem attracted to it.. just beware!).

I back up my driveway from the south to the north, and there are no shadows. But, when I figured out why I couldn't always hit the spot every time because of shadows that I don't have at home, I put three pieces of reflective tape on the tongue and I can hit it first time, every time....even if the camera is blurry with raindrops.

I know you two will never let us know of that fail when it happens - it will - None of us like to admit failure :-)

Enough cabin fever. It's finally warm enough up here to get the T@B out of mothballs!
