JBarca........ Your post was a huge, huge help and so was the other one where showed how you built your rack! Your design is one of the best that I've ever seen! I'm betting that those bikes don't move at all when you are driving. Mind if I copy it? The pics were great, especially the one where you are turned sharply. You've got plenty of clearance, even if you capped the truck. The next time we hitch up I'm going to make some hard turns, get out and take some measurements.
As for the question about using the ladder. There are a lot of posts on the Grand Design (https://www.mygrandrv.com/) of people having issues putting two or more bikes on the ladder and we've got at least two right now. Heck that ladder scares me, I don't use that ladder unless I absolutely have to. When I'm at home I always use my extension ladder to get on the roof. I'm 200 lbs and I'm so afraid of bending or loosening the ladder, denting the aluminum siding and/or causing a leak that try NOT to use it.
