We towed three toads many thousands of miles since 2004 behind a gasser, then a Winnebago Journey, and now a Country Coach. The Journey and CC had/have the full width flap on the rear. Never had any damage to any toad until..... this past summer we traveled about 30 miles of freshly paved (tar and chip) road from Bend, OR to Eugene. The lower fascia, headlights, and lip of the hood on the toad had been peppered with small stones. In spite of my mud flaps and the full width flap, we got chipped up pretty good. So, we ordered a LeBra for the toad for the rest of the trip. It is easy enough to install but you have to get it off the car often and make sure grit doesn't collect behind it. Not a perfect solution but what we chose.
