    Andy, like so many others below, I strongly recommend cutting back those trees along the driveway. I mean, you live in the woods ! Not like your short on trees and those are young trees that are only going to get bigger. Might cost $500, maybe a little more, but why put yourself through that every time ? Sure, widening the driveway would be great too but in 1 day a good tree man can have those trees cut away from the driveway. Good luck !

    Can you see you two doing this every time? I would definitely widen the road especially if it is raining. I was a tractor trailer driver and had one stop I had to delivery every month that we would have to take a pup trailer in. You had to back up a driveway like that. If it was raining or if snowing it was always tricky.

    You did fine. My only comment is you're gonna have to navigate that road every time you want to use your motorcoach. I don't think that I would want to subject myself to that much aggravation in getting on the highway. I have to back into our driveway but have my wife in the car on the road with her blinkers on. Fortunate that we live on a secondary road with only local traffic. Good luck in your travels. Always liked the Coachmen Sportscoach pushers. Felt that they were a great value.

      We have definitely discussed this option! We have a few different spots to put a garage on our property and it's just about deciding where the best spot is. Pulling back out of the driveway seams to be easier than going up. There are two "trouble spots" but if we get to one side of the driveway we can get by without dragging.

    A lot of hateful negative comments on this video that I have seen. I will grant you the driveway is a little bit narrow. But that can be fixed easily the important thing on this video is they got the RV safely where they wanted to go, and he did it without damaging anything. He even stopped and waited until he could clearly see where his daughter was. I hope you enjoy your new RV and you have safe travels down the road.
