drive RV across wet lawn

One reason why we stopped storing the TT (when we had it) at home. Always had to watch the weather a couple days before atrip to see if we could get the TT out. Was much easier to pay the $40/month at the storage place to keep it there down the road.

You mentioned "up to the driveway" which tells me you have to drive up an incline. Truck tires may spin on plywood on incline...especially if they get wet. Last thing you want is a plywood rocket shooting towards your camper...

You might try deflating your tires but to no less than 50% of the max inflation or until tire starts to collapse. Be sure to reinflate as soon as you are off of the lawn. This is a trick used by people who drive on the beach. (Both ATVs and RVs)

I used to do tree work and we used full sheets of 3/4" plywood to drive on. If it can hold a loaded chip body you should be OK.

I did this about 10 years ago when I had to move a shed from my old house to my new one in the wet spring. We had it on a rollback tow truck it was a 12x16 shed. so a good bit of weight. Worked perfectly. We didn't cut down the plywood just used 6 full sheets. I did end up with the extra plywood which I used over the years on various projects.

Best option here. Not sure how much to rent but at least you wont have 8 strips of 3/4" ply laying around...unless you need them next time!

Tree trimmers use plywood all the time to move their bucket trucks into yards. You will need a lot more than two sheets of plywood.

Don't think the plywood will work. Probably need at least 2" thick; there's a lot of weight on those tires.

thanks- I don't know if I can since I'm camping Thursday and the forecast for the next few days in rain.....
