What invariably happens, with those few without a toad, is that that slowly start bumming rides to the store 'cause they don't always rent a car. This does not go un-noticed by others and, while tolerated, is not appreciated.
If you decide to go toad-less, please don't impose on others.....it will not make friends.
Yea well if you toad, don't bother asking others for help when something on your rig is broken or you need other help....it will not make friends....
Horse Puckey. What a snobbish stuck up attitude. Sure glad my wife and I are not that way nor most of the folks we meet while RVing. We have made many long time friends after meeting through necessity, both ways.
Besides, if you are REALLY all that worried about running out of milk, most towns of size large enough to have a couple grocery stores have at least one that will deliver for a fee. Lots of elderly get their groceries this way. Many campgrounds have convenience stores and just a bit of planning goes a long way.
Again, we have done it both ways. There are + and - either way but we find it much easier and lower stress to go without now and rent or ride a bike (we always have a pair of bikes in the basement). We have also taken to trailering our Spyder's to interesting places to ride. Towing both a toad and the bike trailer would not work.
