Here is Why You Must be INSANE to buy an RV These Days, Steve Lehto

Whatever you've convinced yourself is fine with me. Does your MH have particle board floors, PB cabinets, seamed roof that will leak, Quest plumbing that was made in Goshen until all the fittings failed, etc? Enjoy you're one off brandless, yearless, no named engine Wonder mobile!

Whatever kool aid you had convinced yourself about your ambulance which you dont even use, doesn't bother me either.
Other people's kool aid has no effect on my, informed, decisions.
My motorhome got hardwood, doesnt have bodily fuids from 1000 people like ambulances do and excellent plumbing. I hardly even use plumbing because I lived out of my tent in the past and prefer to do everythig outside and I got composting toilet too. I like having full ready plumbing as an option if I had to stay in RV park though.

By the way, another thing I like about motorhome is if I needed medical treatment from good facility in a big city especially, I could rent a spot in RV park monthly with utilities to make life easy (I aint got no caretakers), no cops knocking and safe, good luck with that with commercial vehicle, parks dont accept them.

Got to love all these rich propety owners and couples who do occasional camping lecture us solo full timers on what type of vehicle we should use

Not all RVs are bad.
I tried all kinds of stuff such as van, different types of trailers including cargo and a small motorhome, the motorhome was the best.
I camp off road 100% of the time, off rough roads too where I saw truck campers dont even try to enter.
RVs are camping just fine all over the boondocks, many more than vans or anything else out there. Areas I like to camp in, its all RVs, remote little known and away from trendy places where van/box truck crowds go.

If your gonna talk up your RV, you at least gotta tell us what it is!

Most of them have terrible ground clearance, and the bodies and interiors are so poorly constructed that they fall apart on rough roads, leak, etc.

It has a sub floor under the hardwood which is most likely particle bd & I really am glad you like it but don't dis my motor home when you won't even post the year & specs of yours.

You guys are all making good points. There are good things and bad things about lifestyles and they vary as well with people’s situations. There is no universal right way. I’ve owned a quality motor home, a Jeep truck with a diy topper and everything in between. Nothing has worked in all situations or been “perfect” so get over the petty stuff and realize there are many instances where one works and one doesn’t. I’ll go one further and mention a light weight self contained camper trailer that can be unhooked, is legal to park most places, can be pulled by a truck (a topper makes for day trips or lots of storage) or SUV and in combination with a bike works well in many situations.
