Any RV Owners? - 12/07/17 02:35 PM
My wife and I recently went on a cruise, had to drive a few hundred miles to the departure port. We saw a lot of large RV's on the road and that raised a question in my mind: why do people buy these things?
It seems to me that if you have the money to own and operate an RV you also have the money to instead buy a really nice comfortable car to drive on long trips and can afford to stay in nice hotel rooms at night. You would then also not have to contend with maneuvering one of those huge RV's in and out of gas stations, rest stops etc. And it's not as if you can actually stop and sleep overnight anywhere you want in an RV, you still have to find and pay for an RV park and hookup to sewer, power etc.
Am I missing something, what is the advantage?
