I still want to know how you get into your rig with these stupid steps, while in storage, without having to move it far enough to get the steps down? Maybe the mfrs should put the door in the far a$$-end or have an attic ladder pull-down in the front?

Very simple Lyle. In my photos above, my Minnie is in storage. The storage is my backyard, and it is free storage.
I, also, have free storage, covered, and I have =just= enough room to extend the slides on each side, with no room to walk by. Literally, 4-6" clearance on each side. Given that the slides are about 3', I =might= be able to get in my rig with these installed, but I sure wouldn't count on it. Were I stored in a more "standard" lot, with 12-18" between trailers, there's simply no way to get in a rig with these installed without first moving it enough to allow the steps to fully extend. With old-style steps, most people can access their rig without moving it. IMO, still a stupid concept.
