Let a piece of metal, like a tail pipe or exhaust piece be laying on I-95 in MD traffic slowing and you can't advoid it, pop up believe me you'll wish you had it. I was pulling a small cargo trlr behind and did that. It flew up and went through the nose just above the hitch 2 pieces actually, 1 was stuck in the flaps of the rock gard which I hait to hook up through. because of all the wrist and cuts to my hands hooking up. I love it now.
I'd agree. A few years ago we were traveling at night on the NYS Thruway when I was unable to avoid a tire gator. I saw it just in time to think "this won't be good". I heard a bang, checked the mirrors and review camera. The RV was ok, the car was OK, the dirt skirt was pretty used up.
We stopped and I wired it up until we could get where I could remount it correctly.
It's taken the brunt of 2 other hits since then and all is well.
It also keeps the back of the MH a lot cleaner than when it's off too.
I always say I have a love/hate relationship with it, but at this point I'm not taking it off.
