The last time we used our moterhome was last august. The dashboard air conditioner is not powerful enough to cool the entire vehicle on the road so we have to run the generator so we can use the "house" unit. This also allows us to keep the fridge running while on the road. We tow a chevy tracker behind it, called a "toad" in motorhome jargon. We got 5mpg. If we wanted to sweat like pigs, it gets 8mpg without the generator. Fuel tanks hold 80 gallons.

I hear ya. There are a lot of decent RV's for sale in my area. It's definitely a buyer's market. I feel sorry for one woman with a beautiful Winnebago Class A for sale. It's a 99, in like new shape. They used it in their work. Her husband died recently, so she's selling it. It's been sitting on the lot owned by her friends now for quite a while. Sad.
