I see many toads without protection, mainly jeeps and always wonder what damage is caused from MH debris. Your advice and comments are always appreciated.

None at all. Never had a nick or scratch on my toad from towing it with this or any of our other motorhomes.

Toad Grill Protection

Wildtoad - Nice handle but hope I never experience it. Yes Sir, thinking about a second set of Mud Flaps farther back on the MH. I have a sturdy set in great condition off my F350 laying around, no cost just a little effort. Read that suggestion here as well but I'll do a little homework first.



I've read that full length flaps can be rock catchers, even my dealer dissuaded that option for that reason.

Thank you
