I have seen a few comments on TC forums and other RV forums regarding the benefit of entering without having to open a slide. I was just wondering what the thought process is.

This was posted on another forum I frequent. Glad I don't have a slide, never needed one anyway.....
"Drove to an adjoining parking lot to park the truck between 2 semi trailers and forgot to put the slide in. Needless to say, the camper is totalled.
Luckily, I was only 914 miles (13 hours, 40 minutes) away from home
Making for a rather unpleasant, expensive trip to the Laconia Bike week.
I just wanted to say, I can't tell you how much I've appreciated your helpfulness, knowledge, tips and experience. I won't be doing a truck camper again. dry.gif

That would be no different than someone forgetting to raise the stabilizer or tongue jacks before moving a trailer or forgetting to raise camper jacks and fasten tie downs before taking off with a truck camper.
