If mums there I use them, her pet hate in the MH is water sitting in the sink and not draining. Ive learnt to just do it, its not worth the moan, When mums not around I just make do. Im too lazy to get them out.

Use them on sites. Not tried wild or Aires yet.

With the 1st pic, he could drive either way to get off.

Owner? "Long John Silver?.

As the owner of a "Fiat". Yes, I find lifting the front end is Required, as SWMBO hates walking up and down hill. A bonus is if you reverse up `em, Getting off wet grass is improved, providing you dont run over them with the rears, on the way out!.

Plus, It`s the only way to get the fresh and grey tanks to drain fully!.

EDIT; On one of our favourite "overnight" stop`s the closest Point to the Bar entrance coincidently has a gentle slope which means that it`s one place I dont have to "faff" with blocks, and can get to the Real Ale quicker!.

Not often required but I'm a pedant about being level.. much to Jan's annoyance.. but it's me who cooks and can't be doing with pans sliding on the hob..

The one thing we like about having a slope inside our 'van is the fact that very few sites are actually level, and, as a result, we can find level by pitching, one way or the other on a compensating slope.

I have to confess that turning the van 180 would probablyget it pretty level 9 times out of 10.
I like looking out the front and watch the world go by (unless the weather is good then I sit outside)

We use them quite a lot .. Like to be level to get the most out of the fridge
I find having a definite lean to the left gets the most out of the fridge... Everything, in fact - and as soon as I open the door... :whistle:;)

We do not have any leveling issues at all - I carry my ramps, but my wife prefers to park without checking.....
