I enjoyed reading your narrative, Dutchmensport. Reminds me of my first time with a fiver. In 2008 I went from a class A MH to a 29' fiver (Hitchhiker brand). I had no real issues with it, except for a minor adjustment to the entry door. It served me very well until I had to sell it about 4 yrs ago due to a sudden disability. One of the saddest days in my life. Anyhow, like you, I had to get used to parking it, that is, backing it into a space. Like you said, after a fairly short time you get pretty good at it.
