thanks bob !

i dont think the tire holder is an option for me....unless im on completely level ground i seem to almost always end up w/ a tire or two off the ground.

i agree - i DONT want the pole banging the coach.

the ladder is an issue for me - since i would have to be SIDE mounted (i have a rear slide out)....initially i did investigate adding a ladder and was quoted 500 bucks (you can well imagine the words that i uttered). I use a telescoping ladder ('case i need to get on the roof).

i suspect the hitch mount would have too much SWAY probably wound end up contacting my rear slide.

i THINK, if i fold the mirror in some & can get the pole on the door step i might be able to add some rigidity to the pole.

the mirror strapping idea isnt perfect...and id love a better alternative.
