RE: Sides or not
I agree with RK911, once you had a slidout you will not be happy without it or them.

RE: Do you leave your ladder on?
No, I leave it on, why would you take it off?

RE: RV Cover Recommendation
I agree with all above....If you get one and it is loose, the wind slaps the material around and scuffs the finish, this happened to me. Find a garage.

RE: How to prevent toad battery drain
I have a 2009 fit. I have not had an issue with battery drain while towing. I do follow the 8 hour rule to the letter: We like the Fit as a toad.
Towing Your Honda Fit Behind a Motorhome
Your vehicle can be towed behind a motorhome at legal highway speeds up to 65 mph (100km/hr). Do not exceed 65 mph (100 km/hr). Otherwise, severe transmission damage will occur.
When purchasing a tow bar, make sure you select a reputable manufacturer and installer. Follow the manufacturer's attachment instructions carefully.
NOTICE
The steering system can be damaged if the steering wheel is locked. Leave the ignition switch in the ACCESSORY (I) position, and make sure the steering wheel turns freely before you begin towing.
Automatic transmission:
Perform the following procedure every day immediately before you begin towing. Otherwise severe automatic transmission damage will occur.
1. Check the transmission fluid level (see page 193). Do not overfill.
2. Start the engine.
3. Press on the brake pedal. Move the shift lever through all its positions.
4. Shift to D position and hold for 5 seconds, then to N. Let the engine run for 3 minutes, then turn it off.
NOTICE
Severe transmission damage will occur of the vehicle is shifted from reverse to neutral and then towed with the drive wheels on the ground.
5. Release the parking brake.
6. Leave the ignition switch in the ACCESSORY (I) position so the steering wheel does not lock.
7. Make sure the radio is off and remove any item plugged into the accessory power socket so you do not run down the battery.
Extended Towing
If you tow more than 8 hours in one day, you should repeat the above procedure at least every 8 hour (when you stop for fuel, etc.)
NOTICE
Failure to follow the recommended instructions exactly will result in severe automatic transmission damage. If you cannot **** the transmission or start the engine, your vehicle must be transported on a flat-bed truck or trailer.
If you tow your vehicle with an automatic transmission, the Honda Genuine ATF-Z1 transmission fluid must be changed every 2 years of 30,000 miles (48,000 km), whichever comes first.

RE: Towing a Honda Accord 4 down....
I tow a 2009 Honda Fit, and have had no issues, I follow the pre-tow instructions to the letter and I do not tow past the recommended 8 hours before I redo the pre-tow ritual.

RE: towing question
When I towed a Wrangler, I had to put the key in the (on position) so the steering wheel was unlocked and the front wheels on the Wrangler would turn left and right while being towed.
