In our case Leslie rarely drives the toad, and she has never driven the Marquis... with or without the toad attached. She retired 3 1/2 years ago after years of driving 100 miles per day to and from work. I only drove 60 miles per day, but I retired in 2002. Regarding duties inside and outside the coach, I do almost all outside duties. I attach the toad, check the basement doors, slides and awnings, and generally get things in order for departure and after arrival. She will double-check that the hydraulic levelers are up and the TV dish is down. As to freshening tanks, she tells me she is in the production side, not the maintenance side. Inside the Marquis she does much of the daily duties - cooking, dish cleaning, and most clothes washing, but we share vacuuming and surface cleaning on a weekly basis. Leslie will guide me while backing up and while creeping through tight fitting places to make sure I do not scrape and hit stationary obstacles.
I wish Leslie would take more interest in helping with navigation. I spend hours on Google Maps looking at driving routes and finding RV parking places, be they RV parks or dry camping spots. She will look up some things on her phone while we are traveling if she or I have a question, but usually she is late to the party on navigating questions. It's like the plane is on short-final approach to the strip when she reports we passed the VOR or the runway is in sight. lolol
