re:
Wheelbase

Ack!

Our former TinyHomeOnWheels, a 1984 Peterbilt cabover, had a 276" wheelbase. It ate up parking lots. Going into parking lots often left one axle suspended in air without traction.

Let us know about your experiences.

I guess I must be lucky....Im able to get our 42 foot coach in & out of lots of places (including parking lots & around turns)...hell I even put it in my driveway w/out going over the edge or getting into he grass.
