Hi everyone,

Hope all are well.

I have a 2020, 171 looking at selling or part exchanging for an 180.

But, I have to see if the 180 will fit into my back yard, via the city back lane. I have a couple of feet spare with the 171.

Anyone live in the Vancouver, Bc area with a 180 or equivalent sized Rv, that could pass by?

I know I'm asking a lot, but I don't want to buy the 180 and find out I can't turn it in my back lane.

I have to unhitch my 171 to be able to turn it and get it in, as it is.

Thanks all.

Realize that the 180 is two feet longer than your 171. As a test you could attach a couple of sticks or poles that extend 2' beyond the rear of your 171 and as you maneuver that into your back yard have someone outside the vehicle observe to see if it indeed will fit inside the space limitations you have.

Thanks for the idea, I thought of that last night. May be I'll try it next time.

Thanks again.
