Let me ask you guys something, do your wives (when spotting) stand way far away from the RV when you are backing? Jeeeez, my wife must think the RV is going to learch out at her or something, she's still in training, this is all new to her but she's getting better, i think I need to let her back it up (in an open parking lot) sometime so she sees what it's like, your spotter MUST stay in your mirrors. Not picking on the ladies, there are plenty that know there stuff and there are plenty of guys that are inexperienced too, spotting is not easy for someone who doesn't know what to do or where to stand.
My wife makes up her own hand signals but it doesn't matter she has a knack for standing where I cannot see her anyway.. I normally don't need a spotter either but sometimes I do ask her how far I can go and boy do I get some interesting gestures.
