I'd bet the folders and portable ladders are used mostly to clean the windshield and side windows. I've actually seen guys take their step ladders off the back and clean windows. I have a 14' aluminum step ladder that I keep in my storage shop and use to clean the side windows and take a look up on the roof at stuff. I prefer to move the ladder around the outside and climb up and look around, rather than climb up the back and walk on the roof. I don't like walking on the roof. I also bought the biggest "Little Giant" and a extendable aluminum plank to make a way to get up to my cab overhang. I had to change my clearance lights since the builder used the rubber grommet ones that allow water into the wall. I put in l.e.d. ones that have a plastic molded housing that I sealed all the way around the hole with silicone. Anyhow, this is the only way I could figure to get up there. And I use this method to get up there to clean off the bugs after awhile too.
