In 2016 we did a 90 day trip to Alaska. We camped one night West of Watson Lake and a MH pulled into the pull through site next to us towing a toad. They had a rear flap. They decided to unhook and take their toad into Watson Lake. He decided to check some of the toads fluids and the engine bay was totally full of dust, dirt and rocks from constructions zones they had encountered that day including stones on the hood. It was a non air coach so I loaned them my portable air compressor I carry to blow out his toad engine bay.
I was getting gas in Alaska, one summer, when a guy pulled in with a Class A and a toad. He had a long overhang, a low hanging flap, and a totally trashed older Subaru wagon behind him. He managed to break the headlights and the windshield (several times) and trash the paint on the entire front. When I told him it was caused by the flap, he looked at me like I had two heads, LOL.
If you roll like a lot of the old-timers who take a coach back and forth to your winter/summer destinations, once a year, a properly installed flap shouldn't be too damaging, since it's typically on clean highways. IMHO. if you have a toad, and do a lot of miles on all kinds of roads, it's not a good idea.
