Which Ladder is Most Handy?
Trying to decide what to carry.
I have 7', 4" collapsable, two sided, folding step ladder which I used for my motorhome. But now with the increased hight of the fifth wheel I'm wondering if I should change things up.
This is what I have now: http://www.campingworld.com/7-double-sided-rung-ladder
Am wondering if an extension ladder like this is better... https://www.amazon.com/Ohuhu-Telesco...70_&dpSrc=srch
Or maybe just strap on an 8' aluminum step ladder to the back ladder. Not sure I like this idea, but it is an option.Larry KE4DMG

I carry both ladders you have. The fold up ladder, I made brackets and hung it on the alum frame tubes in the basement.
The telescope, just sit in the front part under the fifth. To be honest, I used the telescope ladder once.

Tom,
I need to get some of the soft pads for the top of the telescopic ladder. Do you know if Sherwin-Williams carries them?

The ladder in the Amazon link gets 8% one-star reviews - most of them because the ladder broke the first time it was used. It seems the rung supports on that one are plastic rather than aluminum.

Mine came from Camping world, with the Aluminum rungs. Need to get the soft bumpers for it, that goes on the top so I don't scratch the new 303.
Another project to get done before the season starts.
