Knee Issues
How do those with knee issues keep on rv'ing? Is a small handicap scooter the answer? Plus how are steps being assessed????

.... Plus how are steps being assessed????
I "thought" I had knee problems arising when I went Full Time.
Turned out all it was was the steps. They are narrow and you have twist sideways on the first step down. You don't give it much thought or realize just how much you have to turn to exit the MH, and after about a month on the road I could barely walk.
I bought a plastic step stool from Ace. It fits perfectly up to the MH. The top step is deep enough that you don't have to twist sideways to walk out of the MH. Within a month my knees felt fine again. My knees have not used the MH steps in over 6 years!
I've posted it before but when parked for a month or longer at any CG I buy cinder blocks and use them to make real nice wide steps and platform to step out of the MH.
I ask the CG manager when I check out if I can leave them and they always say yes. I stack them up alongside the site.
The cinder blocks cost me all of 10 bucks and well worth the price to be pain free at my CG stays.:C
