The idea is not to scratch it, but many times it's not avoidable. Best thing is to go slow and try to keep an eye on both sides. I've learned on some of the tighter trails to also watch which way the trail slopes. I've had to tread the needle between two trees but the trail sloped from left down to the right. Had I cheated more the the right the slope would have caused the roof of the camper to hit the tree on the right since the tilt pushed the roof over further at the top. So I hug the inside tree close on the uphill side sine the tilt puts me away from it and still have room to clear the downhill side.
I won't lie, it can be nerve racking. But it helps if your passenger keeps an eye out too.

Oh for sure, you're definitely right on the clear. It's just makes me cringe a little to know it's gonna happen but I guess that's part of the fun. It will be a learning curve figuring out how to navigate through some of those trails with the camper on. Yours is a little lower but did you notice much of a difference in the way it handled on the trail after you put it on?

Thanks! Better grab one quick. Unfortunately I've seen prices go up on them even in the short time we started looking.
