Good luck!
Thanks. I'm leaning toward #1. But a couple things that have come up today in conversation. The spot picked out for #1 is tough to back or pull into. Probably an 8 point turn. If I go with #2 I can swing wider while under the carport. Second is the trail car. Don't have one yet, but thinking along the lines of a 65 MGB or Spitfire. (How cool would an MGB look painted to match the coach!!! It would be nice to be able to park it (with the rag top) out of the sun as well.

Started checking on the permit process today.

One slide only and it extends straight backwards. The bed in back partially folds up.
