I doubt the drive way accidents happen on the first parking job. My first time I backed around a 100 foot pine tree and down the narrow curved drive way. I now store it 20 miles away because I know sooner or later the tree and the trailer shall meet. Every CC I have been in has much more room to maneuver than a typical driveway. And having grown up in Iowa I understand the boredom of winter but it isn't unique to Iowa. We are having 70 degree weather and sitting at home with the trailer in storage. Shame on us!
