I just wrap it tighter around the tow bar arm. This really isn't a difficult problem.

DadD45 asked "don't your connectors have a cap lock?". I did my own installation, so I chose a connector on the car that matches the one on the motorhome, which means "yes, both of mine have cap locks". Works great. And yes, you need to know which end of the cord goes to which connector, since they are both the same. I suspect if you wired your connectors the same then the cable would go either way. I wasn't that smart - besides my cable has gone through many iterations of cars and motorhomes. I just color code one end of the cable to match the color of the Toad - problem solved (of course if your Toad is the same color as the motorhome - you'd have to come up with another approach!!!!)
