Everyone told my parents not to buy an RV in 1989... they did not listen...It was the best decision of their life. They spent 19 years touring Canada and the USA. It defined them. They are both gone now, I plan to follow their path.

It's not an investment it's a lifestyle. If you like staying at home seeing how much money you have in the bank makes you happy . Not me. I say you only live once make memories.

I work for a self serve storage company. We store your albatross 11.5 months out of the year. Its between 200 and 400 a month if you want it garaged.

I say go for it as you could be gone any moment. Having memories is more important than money.

most of people with RV are trying to escape the suburbs and find themself staying in an RV park which is a miniature version of a suburb.

Bottom line: If you have the desire, $ and time, buy a used quality coach for cash. Maintain it well and enjoy your travels!

You just convinced me to buy an RV.

Excellent, honest, unbiased advice from a very knowledgable person...

I have owned BOTH a vacation cabin in the mountains and a RV. I would say that I prefer the RV. Why? Because it allows me to see things and places I would never get to while allowing my best friends (my 3 x dogs) to come along. In terms of upkeep they both were a pain in the ass.

Thank you sir! In my opinion we need more of this, “Honesty is the best policy “ once that RV comes off the lot , they don’t care anymore. Thank you for making people Accountable for there choices. Right on!

I love having an rv. The freedom to come and go wherever you want, not worrying about Covid 19 because I don't have to be around others. BLM land and Forest service areas are free camping in beautiful areas. If you don't use it a lot then it isn't worth it financially. But worth it in relaxation, freedom, and enjoying life. I have a class b rv, sold my class c for the b and I love it so much. Great gas mileage and can park anywhere.

My husband is a master Mobile RV technician. 20 yrs of service. $100 is cheap. He charges that but that includes diagnostics. Most techs charge that for just showing up. We live in Galveston county TX. If you’re in an RV PARK, ask at the office who they would recommend. We have RV parks popping up like crazy. Many are foreign owned. We’ve been RVing for 30 years. We love it!!

Some great advice, especially about having your spouse "on board" and being realistic about having time to actually go out and enjoy the RV.

After driving trucks over 42years dont buy a RV if your used to driving a freakin prius and dont know how to back up !!!!!!!!

I agree with you, I do own Class A, 36 feet. I love and enjoy my Rv. Yes it is expensive, but I can afford it. I know well how to travel, over 35 years experience, we learned. I’m also very handy man, so it helps a lot. Rving is not for everyone. Great review.

To rent it first, then make a decision to buy if you really want it.

There are plenty of older RVs that are sub 40k that are more enjoyable and cost friendly for all us poor boys. Plus they are so much easier to work on yourself. Andrew makes all the right points. Most are expensive toys for the rich boys LOL.

Andrew all of your reasons are valid. We just sold an older Newmar MountainAire that we enjoyed part time for 6 years. It’s a lot of fun when the kids and pets can go along. But when it gets to sit for 6 months at a time it’s time to sell. Same thing goes for boats. Thank you for your videos and for your honesty. 👍🏻😎

Brother - You are rock solid. My wife even enjoys your videos. Why do I say that? Because I obsess over something like a zillion hobbies and she indulges me. However, you are thoroughly informative and entertaining at the same time. Thanks for the content and all the best to you on your journey! Paul and Lisa - Austin, Texas

RV is the way to go. You don’t have to buy a very expensive RV just one that will allow you to take some vacation time off or go out on the weekend and be self sufficient. I love the RV life full or part time.

We have had over 20 motor homes. (Once in the rental business) but there are some general rules. What we have realized is that the bigger the more problems. And when you are buying the dealer won’t tell you about the strange items that cost lots to repair or to find someone able to repair a problem... For the general RVer buy a class C used first. Those chassis are less troublesome. But in general things are built to fall apart...

I'll give you 100 reasons why. It changed my life😃

Good advice for those thinking of trying out RVing for the short or long term. One should weight all the pros and cons before leaping. Wonderfull video Andrew.

All valid points! I hate to poopoo the RV lifestyle though. I bought a 20 year old coach, it’s paid for, and I love it. But I also have had to spend money to fix things. It’s no Prevost but it’s nice and it gets me out camping.

I would never buy an RV, just to take it out on weekends!! What a waste.. no amount could ever make financial sense. However, if it full time.. this is another story. I feel it’s like an apartment... on wheels. Personally I’ll be buying a 500k renegade, to live in! It’s a crazy idea, but I understand all these rules, and he’s 100% right!

Here is my tip... Learn to do your own RV maintenance and use a good car maintenance management program ( I use Automotive Wolf car care software ) to track and monitor it all. It also tracks all my parts, expenses and creates a detailed vehicle maintenance log. After RV'ing for over 10 years I've saved thousands by doing most of the maintenance myself and there is a lot of it on an RV! A small roof leak can cost you thousands in repairs so I check my roof at least twice a year. Keep on top of the maintenance and you'll save money and be RV'ing for years :)

I plan buying a used Class A and tour the country. Plus I'm one would like to outfit a ruif with enough solar and battery bank to boondock more than anything. Great insight Andrew!

Your reasons are logically correct. Attractive RVs' UKposts ads trap people to buy them. But they really cost a lot of money and finally end up in a loss of money.

good way to think when your young.. But a lot of us have our homes paid for, money in the bank , and would love to see the country . I am not going to sit home and have my kids get all my Money … just some LOL someday your going to say ,, DAMN I have maybe 10- 20 years to LIVE , then you will have a different outlook

Buy an RV storage compound, that's where the money is!! Happy New Year Andrew!

Hi, you have confirmed me NOT buying a newer model. I agree with all 7 reasons. I am retired Military and can move but with 3 mid size dogs the many rules and maintainance...I will invest in dirt. Thanks!

Buy used. Many well maintained RVs out there.

No, no; now it's "Happy life, no wife".

When people say you "you could have bought a house for the price of that RV" my response is always "but then I'd have to live in a house". Of course it isn't an investment.

Big fan of your last point. Financing or even paying cash for a depreciating asset (if you can call it that). I was at a recent RV show in Houston. Found a 900k Newmar with a show price of 550k. With that kind of spread the market must be flooded with RV's, and resale value expected to perform like a junk bond that just went into arrears.

Thanks for the candor. I am approaching retirement and am considering buying an RV. It would be more like a We Roll than a class A or B, or C. I like staying out a week to 10 days, then coming home.

Never say ,"it bad to buy an RV"" don't say the due to your reasons because, others buy for long traveling reasons and others buy because it nice to have one...This two have different benefits.. Am a farmer, from my site to the house is about 60 miles away ...so my buying RV is right or wrong.. I can stay there and monitoring my farm and working hard at the some time.

I would say.... spend your money instead of watching it loose its value on your retirement investments. There are wonderfull rv communities.... Life is short..... write a new chapter in your life.....buy an rv and go explore

Andrew, I really enjoy your channel and that is where we are in making an informed decision. Your insight and honesty speak volumes of your character. We love to travel and explore this beautiful country. I'm looking at a 5 year time period and being on the road 150 days a year. I'm getting ready to lay out the hotel, fuel, depreciation, maintenance, and other cost to see if it is all worth it. Once again, thanks and keep up the good work, maybe we'll cross paths one of these days.

Have had 2 diesel pushers and a fifth wheel. All of your points are on the money. If you can afford to pay cash and the depreciation doesn’t bother you(goes down in value as quickly as boats), you will enjoy it. If you have to think about the money you’re going to lose, you’ll never enjoy it. We’ve met a ton of neat people, but as you say, we’re still working and can’t use it enough. It is a lifestyle choice. Here’s an example: purchased a used 40’ that we fell in love with for $150K. Put $20K in maintaining with some minor improvements over a 3 year period of ownership. We were lucky to sell it for $100K. Net loss $70,000.00! We’re not complaining, just showing the reality of ownership. ( I also did almost all of my own work). Just food for thought. Thanks again or a realistic viewpoint.

Adding to my previous comment. Have you ever thought about doing a video about renting from a RV sharing platform or putting your RV into a sharing platform? This could be a good alternative to buying or perhaps helping defray expenses. Thanks, Adam

I've been following many of the RV'ers on UKposts, and I've basically come to a similar conclusion on buying an RV. As nice as the new ones look, I think you should have the price of a new RV saved, then find a used one that you like, have it inspected, fix anything that needs it, maybe do some upgrades, and you'll still spend less than new (I think). You should have plenty of money left to maintain it. More importantly not fall into a hole moneywise.

...I have an SUV as my main vehicle. You throw a tent and sleeping bags in the back and you go. It's the better way to travel if you ask me...

A good quality used travel trailer can significantly cut the costs of owning an RV. Used Fiberglass travel trailers generally hold up fairly well and are light enough to get decent towing fuel economy.

We bought our first RV (Motorhome) in 1987. Since then we have had 5 of them. Family has moved on and my wife and i are now in a 2004 Fleetwood Tioga 31W. It is now 16 years old still looks new. 48,000 miles. Bottom line beat thing we have done as a Family. Our 4 kids have really had a lot of fun traveling

all great points ,...I can do my own work and repairs,...looking for something diesel and just about fully depreciated,...just to visit distant family who have farms etc where there is plenty of room,....oh and if I can't pay for it I won't buy it,.... still going to be an expense but I also want to live in on my property while building a new house,....I hope I have thought it out,....

Rvs are not an investment they are a recreational toy like a boat unless you live in them full time and still not an investment. I am retired and havent regretted it.

Very timely video. Next winter we will be snowbirds for the first time. Wife's looking at condos and I'm looking at used 2004-2008 DP. Wow,lots to choose from. Payments, fuel, maintenance and the fees are alot higher than renting a condo. She loves the adventure side of rv's so no decision yet, still researching. .

Sage advice, friend. My wife and I bought a pandemic RV, just sold it yesterday. Came out whole, but not without a ton of luck. As a retired soldier, my wife a teacher, we were financially able, but found that the money would be better spent elsewhere. We plan on renting an RV when we want to make that sort of trip.

This presentation makes sense and we all must come to terms with "cost of operation" contrasting to the freedom of ownership. What is the intended use? Today, with many loosing their homesteads with this plandemic, there are many reasons to insure sovereignty by being creative. RV-ing (includes trailers and 5th-wheels) does not mean traveling, it can be as simple as a means of controlling your life/environment. The RV is used as a home, a much smaller vehicle is used as a means to purchase groceries and to do task. This configuration means the RV stays mostly anchored while you use a much more efficient means to navigate. Points to Consider: Is renting an apartment or house considered building equity? Can you remove most of the ongoing expenses considered a "Monkey on Your Back" by creating an alternative life style like that of a mortgage or renting? Can the investment you make in the acquisition of an RV with upgrades be realized as equity and therefore be a justification to sell for more? The problem is there are too many factors that are not within the model of the depreciation of a car or truck. When talking about an RV/Motor-home, the major differences is you are dealing with functions which a mobile house will give you such as: (a) Solar system with good components that is matched for the needs of the appliances and your particular life style, (b) The configuration of gray/black and water tanks, (c) Does the RV have a deck and awnings? (d) Are the floors quality wood or carpeted (do you like dark wood or light wood)? (e) What generation of air-condition is being used? (f) Bathroom amenities - is there a toilet which is electric (or must you be mindful of having to dump the black tank several time a month? (g) Does the RV have dual tandem rear wheels? (h) Do you like the kitchen cabinets layout, color and builtin appliances (does it have a full separate freezer compartment that runs on either electric or propane)? (i) What condition is the roof? (j) The overall looks/design of the RV. The list goes on and on. There are many UKposts videos with RV-ers testimonies that they wished they had done this earlier. About devaluation: A RV- has many duties it has to perform. The amenities /features or upgrades are the fundamentals to convenience, operating expenses and or safety. There are so many variables, a blue-book price many times is not relevant. Can we also include a tiny house as an RV. If so, can you get your investment back on a tiny house? These are all questions to ask yourself. Thumbs up. see - Don't buy a RV before watching this video! ukposts.info/have/v-deo/pqejq3h6nKGHxpc.html

Excellent. Well done and so truthful. I would encourage everyone to listen to you. Pax.

Thank You Andrew. You made very very very great points.

Good list Andrew and all good advice. My wife and I are still working and not retired yet so only able to use our RV for weekend getaways and maybe a week of vacation here and there. Our goal is to use the RV at least 2 nights per month, sounds easy but I assure you its not, there is so much that can get in the way. For 2019 we were right on our goal of 2 nights per month. I purposely try not to add up the expenses because I know it doesn't make financial sense. The only way it makes sense is if you truly enjoy the adventure, outdoors and maintenance aspects of RV'ing. Great Vid!

We had a 24' Class C, its another vehicle BUT inspections more $, insurance more $, AAA roadside assist. $, it leaked, constant repairs on solar, mechanical, plumbing, propane, 8 mpg = $200/day, mountains were no fun, expensive camping so just rent a cabin or get a tent....

This may be one of the most honest videos I have ever seen. Thank you so much for your points to consider.

Thanks for the advice, seems to me from a Purely economic point of view, buying a used 5th wheel seems to make the best financial sense, buy something that has already depreciated

I find I like to drive and see the country. I usually get in a site for a month because it’s less expensive but find myself getting tired of it sooner and maybe leave a few or couple days early. That’s still less expensive than just staying a week or two. I spend 6 months out of California in winter when I go. I Also got a 2380 model so the house part is pretty small but I get 15 to 17 miles per gallon in my Ford transit. I also got a great by because it had been in 3 shows and had a few dings. All in all I love RVing. I did pay cash. My husband passed away and knew I needed one and he left me the money. I payed $59,000. And it’s not that more than a truck. But I have my bed, bathroom, tiny place to cook, and relax. I did great I think I love our country and the views are breathtaking.

Everything he says is true. We bought a four year old Tiffin Allegra after we retired. We did 4 to 6 week trips every year for about four years. You have to plan every step of your trip months in advance, be prepared for something to break (always happens), cooking in advance and buying food for four weeks can be a nightmare. Storage, insurance, repairs - there’s a lot more to owning an RV than just the initial cost.

There are Pro and Con for personal requirements to buy RV . Thanks for your good advice .

I've owned 3 class As 2007 Wennebago Tour 2013 Newmar King Air 2017 Entegra Cornerstone I totally agree it's very expensive toy my Tour was 89k the King Air was $229k Entegra was $399k The thing people don't think about all the proper set up things you need to buy. These RV dealers my give you these cheap ass starter kits believe Me buy the right stuff it's not cheap . As far as making payments depends how much you make on your retirement . All my riges are paid for I agree you need to have Tools and be Mechanivly inclined you don't need to be a master Mechanic . I tell people to buy from a good dealer I only deal with one myself I live in the Philippines 4 months of the Year in my Class A 8 months I have nice home in the Phils

This was exactly the video I needed. I was worried about many of these things.

Andrew, this may very well be your best video to date; I respect your honesty. If you don't have a ton of money in the bank, this lifestyle makes no sense to me. Of all the germane points you mentioned, I believe that: 1) not being on the same page with your RV partner, 2) not being mechanically inclined, and 3) having a tight, type A personality, are by far and away the most important points. For me it comes down to two simple facts: I am in no way mechanically inclined, and I believe you need millions, not just 2-300,000 in secured assets to even START taking this lifestyle seriously. That 300,000 will evaporate in no time. Superb video because it is much needed.

This is a great video with great information. We have a class a and financed it AND we knew what we were getting into. It will be paid for in 5 years and we anticipated all the costs to own, maintain and store. *We bough used and God Bless the first owner, they took a bath. I wish everyone considering getting an rv would watch this and get a pen , calendar and calculator out. We love ours and wouldn't trade it for anything, but we knew what the expenses would be in advance.

ALL “TRUE” what he SAID. I Drove RV’s as a living for an RV Company all over the Country. Before I RETIRED I got to see The USA 🇺🇸 on their DIME. Had a BALL. I would Suggest to get it out of YOUR System I would RENT First which is a LOT CHEAPER in The LONG RUN.

Great video! Thanks for your experiences and insight.

Excellent video .. very important information.. I’m so glad I don’t fall into any of the categories you mentioned… I’ve been watching your videos for about a year.. I didn’t expect to see this.. but maybe you’ve opened up the ice to some people that were going to buy that shouldn’t …good for you.. I’m retired and plan on paying cash. I know that’s the only way to get into it…. I also know it only last a few years before you make up your mind and move on. Thank you very much for this video.

We full time in a 1973 GMC coach. In the last year we’ve visited 41 states and 5 provinces. Yes it’s definitely a lifestyle, we boondock most of the time ( 2 nights in an RV park in 2019), and it can be less expensive than a traditional home , but as stated it requires planning and flexibility.

Anything you finance will increase the cost 60 to 75% due to interest. Houses, cars, etc.

I love watching folks spend big bucks on enjoying the rv life style and " Living Free" but there are storage lots just chock full or rv's just sitting and depreciating because folks don't have the time away from earning a living to use the rv.

If you are not having to work anymore the RV life is without a doubt the best life going. It is less expensive, more fun and not half the upkeep you have living in a home. Financing is easy if you have 720 plus credit score. Just remember you can write the interest off as a second home. I think this lifestyle is for older people, in most cases folk like Andrew can not afford to RV.

Great video and interesting. I don't have $200,000 cash so I decided to finance at 5 percen interest, which is not too bad. Tax write-off and plan to pay it off ASAP. I guess I'm just addicted to having a coach and enjoying it with my family. My personal opinion is that if it's not going to break you then go for it and enyoy life/vacation in the comfort of your own home on wheels.

Feels like you're talking about vacationers more so than those that chose the lifestyle. Familiarity with rvs definitely would help because you have more of idea of how they operate, maintenance, cost to live in. Like everything else it's your mindset. Do agree, pay cash and own it.

Dave Ramsey had a great clip someone posted " If you buy an RV or a boat you better be willing to take that money put it in a pile and set fire to it , I would tend to agree after having several boats , still thinking about the RV

thank you for being honest.

I travel a lot and Fuel is way cheaper than spending months of a year in a hotel and add in having to drive back and forth to race tracks every day.

I've been RVing for 60 years from tents to my 40' class A diesel pusher. MPG and the cost of fuel have very little to do with the cost of living in an RV.

Would you say the list still applies to any RV or just the big Class A’s you typically review?

i want an RV so bad I've been watching your vids for so long now and i agree with you, RV life is not cheap especially full time, gas money alone is equivalent to rent money in some areas lol like California where i live its expensive......

Thank you for the common sense tips! I have heard stories about people who retired and purchased an RV to travel, only to find out they didn’t have the money for the gas to move it, so they live in their children’s driveway...

It would have been helpful to list a few of the cost you mentioned. Also one way to pay for finance could be > buy a house in a good location > rent the house > rental income should pay for house mortgage and potentially RV finance. Your house/property appreciates in value and pays for both. Risk > tenants wreck things, don't pay, move out, gap before new tenants, income tax on rent.

Very good video I had two travel trailers and enjoyed them but they did cost me money. Got out because when I bought my last business I had no time for it. When I retired my wife and I thought we would buy a motorhome but decided like you said in the video we could fly and stay in a top hotel for a lot less.

...all good things to think about and decide whether they apply to you. We took a chance on a small used fiberglass trailer (

There really should be a part 2 on this video cause there is a huge upside to this subject. There are people who have made smart decisions like stick to what they can afford, not some expensive Prevost bus. Boondocking as much as they can as supposed to staying in some $300.00 a night resort. Other tan maintenance costs and training yourself to be super skillful (cause owning a rig will force you to learn). If you want to buy an RV to live to avoid expensive rent it takes smart choices and planning. Shout out to those people who find it disgusting to stay in busy hotels where you don't know what kind of nastiness was going on in those rooms. So I'm not totally with you on this. There are hundreds of success stories from people who have pioneered the RV lifestyle and make it work cause they really wanted to be there. RV's can be fun and adventurous. It's important to do what you do Andrew for this channel and that's talk and consume the advice of people who can school you on the things you should know so you're not draining your finances. You are right to stress that you need a plan and steady income to finance that plan to be a successful RVer. My take away is...know what kind of RV user you are going to be. Thanks for sharing Andrew.

I love my little Roadtrek 170 RV. Paid cash, fits in my garage and is so easy to drive and park. I would never want a class A or C, way too big for me.

I have a 2003 Damon 373 3 slide motorhome with 18000 miles, paid cash it is worth about $45k Canadian. nothing like paid off i have no worries about money owing every month. the bedroom in my motorhome is big as my house bedroom having 2 slides in it with french doors and its fully private at the back.

Appreciate your candor Andrew, helps folks get cleared eyed about the RV life right from the beginning.

I am not an RV’r. Good video. I agree with everything you said. I can travel in my Avalon a long time and stay at Hilton’s a lot cheaper and more trouble free than owning any kind of an RV.

Everyone has their own opinions on RVs and RV life, I give you all 👍Up. I understand everyone needs to go out and do what you want to do even if it's just to say you did it. I thought about it for a minute but weighing all expenses and families concerns, I set it aside. I do want to thank you for keeping it real. There are some folks out there that have not thought about some of what you brought up. Listen, Learn and do whatever pleases you! Godspeed ✝💚💃

I just bought a 2 year old travel trailer for 1/2 of what it was new, still has original stickers on it. Definitely buy used just do your homework.

Thank you so much for these tips! Such great content. My daughter and SIL bought a used 5th wheel and I am bet they got a good deal because they are both pretty bright:)

Wise words for those looking at joining this lifestyle. One thing you need to know every RV purchase comes with a free lifetime membership to the "Problem of the month club" that you can not cancel.

You can rent them by the week, this is the best way for short term use. Use it for your vacation and no license plates or maintenance or storage. I buy older travel trailers, my current is 1987 bought for $1,700 needed new holding tanks which I was able to do myself. Last one was an 84 that I used for 10 years bought for $1,500. Have always done all my repairs. I use it from end of may through October selling at fairs, festivals etc. Then use it for my office while selling Christmas trees. I pull it with an E250 van currently which carries the merchandise that I sell. All business expenses covered on this. I do some shows that are basically boondocking and occasionally Walmart or other parking lot. Get tired find a parking lot or truck stop or rest area,no problem.

Really u r giving a good massage to people but some people is having a huge money from ansisters property they can buy a rv n those people who is interested in trucking n adventure they can also buy moter home

I love to travel. I love seeing whatever is over the next hill. I've visited every state except Alaska, spent time in almost every national park and spent a lot of time on the road. I've also been enamored with RV travel for a couple of decades. But I've decided that the very best way for me to travel is in a nice car spending nights on the road in hotels and motels and eating out most of the time. Here's why I think this is a better decision that RVing..... 1. Staying in cities where many of the glamour sights, sounds and experiences are located just works better for me. "See the USA in your Chevrolet" really works for me. 2. After spending a day inside a vehicle getting from point A to point B, the last thing I want to do is spend the night in the same place I spent the day. Hotels and Motels have great facilities, they have great wifi, they are located near or inside about any place you ever want to go, the usually give you a light breakfast and the variety of experiences you can have in hotels and motels is superb. 3. Many of the best and most famous National Parks have terrific, near legendary hotels that are as much a part of the visit as anything else in the park. 4. There is no comparison between the comfort, economy and reliability of a car and that of any style, sort or model of an RV. 5. I save so much money doing traditional traveling vacations that spending a week or two in any location is easily affordable using just the money I've saved by not having an RV. 6. The much ballyhooed 'lifestyle' associated with RV travel is crazy. Hook up your sewer. Hope for Wifi. Pay too much to park. Spend a night in a Walmart parking lot? Pot luck suppers with strangers over and over? Doing your laundry where? Park in the desert for weeks courtesy of the BLM? Crowded parks in Florida, Arizona, Texas and anywhere you really want to go? 7. Miami, Tampa, New Orleans, Austin, El Paso, Santa Fe, Chicago, NYC, Boston, DC, SFO, Seattle, St. Louis, Nashville.......America is full of great cities with history, culture, and lot of things to do. Where the heck are you gonna park an RV when seeing the cities that make America great? RV? Not for me.

Great vid and solid advice Andrew. Stay safe and give Sadie some love for me.

I been thinking lately of getting in RVing life style, at later time when I m retired and travel.. I guess it out of the question now, thanks for the tips.

I think insted of all this RV r a camper van v can buy a pick up 4*4 truck n pop up camper, really it’s a two in one idea when v r moving outside with family for trucking pop up camper attached to pick up, when we r back from pick nick r trucking detached from pickup and then we use pickup for our industrial use r coffee estate use.

All great tips. I think there is an uptick in people buying these since the pandemic. People feel safer to invest in their own traveling hotel-vacation without having to fly or be where others have sneezed on (haha). That being said..good advice on the financing piece and also spaces avail at places to park them. We were looking into possibly purchasing (for cash) a decent 5th wheeler but then you need to buy a truck to tow it..and the prices of those suckers aren't cheap either. So what would have been a $20K purchase would end up being an $80K+ investment. Then insurance. Then you have to pay for a place to park it when not using it or even when you DO use it. I have a friend and she and her hubs just bought a very expensive luxury motorhome. I mean. VERY expensive. She grew up RVing so perhaps thats something that despite the price and devaluation the minute you take it off the lot-they can afford the loss should they decide to stop doing it. As much as originally I thought it was a good idea to look into the RVing lifestyle..I think we'll just rent one for a week or 2. MUCH cheaper and no commitment.

Thank you for talking me out of it. Saved 40 grand from not buying a truck and another 60 on a camper. Best Fiancial advise I’ve gotten all year, and it was free lol

SINGLE MAN HERE. RETIRED. I BUY NEW EVERY THREE YEARS WITH WARRANTY. I BOONDOCK AND HAVE PASSPORT AMERICA AND TWO OTHER THINGS WHERE I'VE ALREADY PAID MY DEBTS AND HAVE A CREDIT SCORE OF 840. AMEN
