    Checklist for hitching toad on caddy

    We have a Coachmen Freelander Class C motor home and will be towing a Honda Civic on a dolly. Does anyone have a checklist for connecting and disconnecting? Don't want to miss any important steps and I find that checklists are the best easy to avoid that.

    Oil on the Toad

    Does anyone else remember a post about a mod to the coach (the oil breather valve, I believe) to reduce or eliminate oil on the front of the Toad? I've searched this forum every which way I can think of and can't find.
