Anyone remove their ladder completely?
The ladder on the back of my class C is unsafe - one vertical pipe has a pretty bad bend to it, one step is broken, and it is kind of shaky. I suspect the previous owner backed into something with it. I climbed up it once when inspecting the unit before purchase, never thought to inspect the ladder first, and it held me, but I'm certainly never going to try it again.
Anyways...I've been using a couple nice step ladders at home to get up on the roof, and have been considering pulling the fixed ladder off entirely and then sealing up the holes, rather than replacing it. Anyone else do this? Are there situations I'm not seeing where I'd need to get on the roof while away from home? We're not full timers by any means, just weekends with the odd 1-2 week trip mixed in. I do not intend to carry a ladder with me - if there is a good reason I'd need to get up there, I'll mount a new one.
