Fucking crazy how luxurious and nice RVs are now. WISH I could afford a nice toy hauler. On another note that place was like boomer central, was mainly whites though.

They look like it but in reality they are expensive pieces of shit made with cheap crap.

Wife and I bought one just like this and lived in it full time for years. Fuck new ones, simplicity is best. 16 MPG.

I have an old AirStream. I wouldn't take 6 gorillion shekels for it. We used to love going around and looking at new RV's and even double wide trailers/modulars. They make some fucking nice ones. One time we looked at a 36/100 feet long. It was a mansion. lol

My piece of shit ex has her satanic parents visit in an RV, parked it right outside where there wasn't any space to park and then demanded to stay inside where they broke my shit and left a mess.

Oh yeah, they were green faggots too but fuck that when they want to get what's theirs.

boomer central

You walked through the mobile retirement home! Retire, by an RV, and drive across America!

If you live in a warm enough climate, could live in it year-round. Down the street from me is a big RV with utility hookups parked under a roof on a little lot. Seems pretty nice...get annoyed with the neighbors, start up your house and fuck off elsewhere.

The pre-fab ones are pretty and all but an absolute dogshit investment, especially for what they charge for em.
Better to get a nice enclosed trailer and build one out yourself, or buy from a small company that does a proper job of it.
I've seen incredible home made ones, nice carved wood n shit, and everything is rated to work, not break in 2 years.

Caravans are often more popular.

Mine allows me to setup our mobile home which takes time. Then have the tow vehicle free to travel.

I see campervans setup then pulled down just to go get milk.

Another thing caravans have in advantage. Is the separation of motorage and the home is that mechanical wear is isolated.

The tow car breaks down. The mobile home is still fit to be used.
Also allows the caravan to be parked up untouched for months.
Unlike rv / campervans.

Caravans can scale in luxury but the price difference is huge.

A massive 5th wheeler caravan goes for less than $200,000 brand new.

Plus tow vehicle which could be cheapnor $100,000 truck.

The same rv costs $600,000+

Read this whole comment thinking you were talking about the Dodge Caravan.

Buy an enclosed utility trailer on Craig's list for cheap.
Have fun making whatever you want out of it.
