Maintinace sucks, they are designed to look good and be road worthy, not easily worked on or last a long time. That's why the depreciate so fast.

Which is why most will recommend you get a Travel Trailer and a Truck.

Most mechanics won't touch a 400,000 RV. They have no problem touching a $30,000 Truck and you don't have to take your home to the bar.

I mean even the actual housing part, but doubly for RVs for sure.

You have to take them to places that will work on them. I work on a ton of RV'S and I work at a semi truck engine shop. Cost per hour is definitely a lot more though.
