How many don't pull a TOAD behind their coach?

I'm curious, if you don't pull a TOAD and I see many who don't. What do you do about food shopping, doctor visits and performing general trips associated with travel?

Of course when I see motorhomes not pulling a TOAD I have no way of knowing if that's their normal configuration? But if you don't pull a TOAD I'd love knowing how you make it work?

Thank you

  • many rent cars if they are going to be set up for a long period of time, some either walk, take a bus or a taxi. I would rely on a
    bike if nothing else
  • If you don't have a toad how do go to the beach-visit wallmart-carry your clubs to the course-ETC. etc.
  • Yes there has to be a lot of places you can't get to without a toad. It doesn't just keep you from the necessities it keeps you from the fun and interesting places as well. Places you just can't take a motorhome!

    we didn't for the first 17-years (1986-2003) and got along OK. then I woke up and realized how much better RV life could be with a toad.
  • When I didn't pull a toad, traveling, I would make restaurant or grocery stops on the way into the campground. If out sightseeing for the day, disconnected and just went.

    Even after I got a toad, if going for a lengthy dr. Appt, I would disconnect my mh and take it for convenience.

    Should I trade my fiver and truck in the future for another motorhome, I will hold off buying another toad and just take the motor home out. It will be a small one, 23 to25'.
  • Many of us are just heading out for the weekend and have everything we need onboard :)
  • I pull a TOAD everywhere EXCEPT when I am going to Fort Wilderness (where I rent a golf cart and use busses to move around locally).
