I like this one because of the way the flag is attached and you can get an RV mount. I don't think the ladder on my rig will withstand the stress of a flag pole.

I second flag pole buddy, they stand behind their products and customer service is number one to them.

I would hate to think your ladder won't handle the stress of a flag pole unless you want to fly a 20 X40 foot flag.lol

I've found the two holes on top of the king pin to be perfect flag holders for the small flags . . .

Mine's up there 24/7, in all kinds of weather, from May to October and hasn't failed yet. We've had it since early 2010. And I also climb the ladder regularly to clean the roof and do maintenance.

My ladder flexes too much. When I use it I support it at the bottom.

I use a wheel mount base that you place a base under the tire but instead of a tire, I use one of the pads of a jack. Usually, I place it under the tongue jack but am thinking about making a new base that would be good for mounting it under a rear stabilizer Jack.

Take a look at EEZ-RV products... for a nice ladder mount for most any flagpole.

http://eezrvproduct.com/ALUMINUM-FLAG-AND-WIND-SOCK-POLE-MOUNT-FOR-LADDER-SET-EEZ-RV-FPMNT.htm

I am using their ladder mount with one of the Harbor Freight flagpoles. The mount is holding up better than the Harbor Freight pole...!
