Mud Flap
We have owned our new motor home for 1 month and 1 day now. Still waiting for RV.net to fix the My Preferences link so I can update my signature (hint,hint).
It came with a full width mud flap with the name Georgetown on it, but it was not installed by the dealer. We can’t tow yet until the break-in mileage is complete, but we’re sure that it would look nice from behind the motor home, and protect the cars who are following us.
Asking the group if installing it permanently is a good or bad idea. It is heavy if we decide to install it only when towing. It is also full width and would be difficult to store when not in use.
We’ve seen quotes on line like: “I understand that a full length mud flap across the rear of the coach may do more harm than good.” and “I have been towing for over a year and have only the factory mud flaps. I have no marks or chips on my toad and I have been on many gravel roads.”
Again, asking others: Would you have the full width mud flap installed permanently, install it myself only while towing then take it off and store it after each toad trip, or just either toss it away or save it for a later sale of motor home?
Thanks in advance for any replies!
