If you are thinking about buying an RV, watch this.

Turning america from middle class homeowners into Gypsies to make room for, well, Gypsies.
It’s not a good sign if people are living in them full-time.
I strongly encourage anyone thinking about buying a new or used RV to check out videos by such people as “Liz Amazing” on YouTube.
Whether you’ve owned an RV or not, I think you’d be hesitant, or possibly adamantly against, buying/owning one.
After watching her and other videos, I decided the only way I’d “enjoy” one is via rental.
Purchasers are nowhere near as protected against faulty RVs as they are against lemon cars.
Lol, I was going to post the same thing.
At the moment we have a 38ft RV up on our rural property which we use as a weekend getaway until we get a house built up there. It has everything you need. We actually will be living in it for about 4-5 months while we build.
My wife and I have thought about moving on to a boat, but unless you can do most of the maintenance yourself, it quickly becomes less of a bargain than you think.
“People don’t make these large, luxury purchases unless they’re actually feeling better about the economy
Agree sounds like CNN trying to doll up a story about so many city streets abound the country are loaded with trashed out old RV’s Los Angeles is infested with thousands of them.
The police have to keep them on the move some can’t even be driven.
Well, if I lived in NY, I’d buy one just because I wanted to get out of the state in a hurry and I hadn’t quite figured out where I was going.... If RV sales are high, I suspect it might be a reflection of uncertainty as opposed to confidence in the economy.
my first thought too. older Americans buy a motor home to travel the country after retirement but younger folks buy them to escape what’s coming. and yeah...it’s coming.
I don’t care about pollution
I’m an air-conditioned gypsy
That’s my solution
Watch the police and the tax man miss me
I’m mobile, ooh yeah, hee-hee
Mobile, mobile, mobile, yeah, mmm

Whatever you do, don’t buy a used Gulfstream. Whoever designed the plumbing, electric and heating in them must have been on LSD, or just hate people who buy their product.

Not sure this is true for all of them but you could substitute a lot of names for Gulfstream in that sentence...
I also own an older “Coachmen” motor home, and not only is it more reliable, it is much more straightforward to repair when something does fail...... Well, other than a pesky roof leak that took even my professional roofer buddy several times to figure out and fix.
We bought a 2017 Coleman Lantern trailer 2 years ago. We found out fast that at the 5 year mark you have to start replacing everything. So far we have put a new thermostat in the fridge, new carbon monoxide detector, new microwave, new electric converter, new (quiet) water pump and flex sealed the roof. This next week Mr. GG2 is going up to replace the valve in the toilet which is leaking. We are praying the awning lasts 2-3 more months so we don’t have to change it out in 95 degree weather. After that I think we’re good to go for awhile. 😉
It's a sign that the people don't trust the airlines anymore.
