Today I took the opportunity and went into a self-serve car wash.
No problems getting in, a bit too long for the cabin itself, but it
worked out okay. Unfortunately, driving out was kind of a problem. Now I
know, why most refer to their coaches in the female form. The swinging
butt was a tad bit to large for my driving skills...
Luckily, GMC thought of that as well when they designed the MotorHome.
And I need to replace the black rubber stuff on the side anyway...
No real harm, just something others might want to conside: The butt is
swinging out.

Thats why I've been trying to train the GF as a ground guide. Its a work in progress as her concept of hand and arm signals differs from mine.

Learnt from an ALCE team many years ago
"Put your hands on top of the steering wheel. Watch me. Arm or wand out, move your hands and the wheel a quarter turn in the direction of the arm/wand. Crossed arms/wands means STOP."
Stand on the driver's side, a foot off the side. You should be centered in the mirror. Stand one foot ahead of where the obstacle is.
