Default towing while open

what damage can result from towing the TM while set up
if it is towed s-l-o-w-l-y to a dump station and back to the campsite. Has anyone tried this?

Extreme caution is required. You won't be able to turn very sharp as the slide or bed will be hit by the TV. Have a walker with you when you do this. Also, the weight is not supported like the moving vehicle was intended, so don't bounce over bumps. As Leon said, if this is a routine matter, I suggest the blue tote.

Once after setting up the TM, we noticed we were assigned a spot in the campground that was without proper electricity. Being that we were already set up except for hooking onto water and electricity, we decided to pull the TM in its up position. Even tho we moved at a snails pace, I thought we were going to shake the trailer to pieces. Every minor rock or dent in the road was reflected in the trailer.

This was the same camp ground that we wanted our TM to be parked in the afternoon shade. There were tree scattered about but we were ourselves unsure which side to park it. So we asked the gal which side has the afternoon shade.... she said she didn't know. So, we asked her which direction the sun came up.... She said she doesn't get into that type of thing. So she assigned us to a site without electricity.

It was sure hot that afternoon "in the shade".
