To toad or not to toad, that is the question
Having never made this trip before I am working from a beginning point of ignorance ... so I can only improve! I really don't want to drag a tag vehicle behind me on the trip, and so my question is...

The toad has many more advantages than disadvantages.
* Use in case of breakdown (see earlier post)
* Independence. 1 can stay in MH. 1 goes and explores.
* Can set up MH and not touch until departure.
* Doesn't reduce MPG on MH by very much.
* Freedom to explore and "blend in with the locals".
* A place to stow the bikes (inside!)
The toad is practically invisible behind our 27' Class C (Ford V10).
Doesn't interfere with parking
Only rarely do we have to disconnect to turn around or back out of someplace we land by accident.
I bike too but many locations I visit don't lend themselves to using the bike for exploration or errands. For example, we use the toad for laundry runs when the park doesn't have one.
Of course, a toad is another vehicle to maintain, license, insure etc.
We're looking at getting rid of 1 of the family cars (we have 2) to mitigate this cost issue.
I'd rather have a toad than a larger MH.
