Are many young people getting into RV's? I think the ones that do go for the van life. I don't use the forum much as I have not been out with the RV since Oct. of 22 and have no plans scheduled.
I really don't see how RV'ers can travel to campsites nowadays. The cost is stupendous for most of them. I think there were a lot of old timers on the forum that have retired or passed away. There was a old guy here that always helped me out with the tech stuff. I think he was the weekend mod. Fantastic help over the years, miss him.
I'm near 70 and thinking of selling truck camper and truck as a turnkey sale. I mostly used mine for my part-time work and since I don't do that work any longer, I don't use it much. I was never much of a vacation person, so if not using RV for work, I don't really need it.
Still, if you need one...it is nice having an RV. But like all things, it goes downhill with age if it just sits. The 2011 F350 Truck only has 33k miles on it. Prior to that I had an Aliner I had bought in early 2000's. I would mostly boondock unless working in NYC. Back then it was $100 a day to park it in Jersey City, even though I didn't need any hookups. Now it is about $150 a day in Jersey City. I can't afford that, nor do I like working in NYC any longer...too dangerous for me.
Well, if the lotto ever comes in, I will buy a small, cushy Class C. I would not care if it devalued just sitting. I like having an RV if $ was no object. And I still may keep mine if the resale is poor. I could never replace it again. So not rushing into anything. I paid $17K for the truck camper. They are $26k now. I don't know how much the truck cost now. I paid $36k a new F350. I can't tell if the dealers are charging more for trucks than the msrp now. Crazy!
I looked into RV Trader to sell it. WOW! $160 to $260 to run an ad. Maybe I will look into truck classifieds and price it with the TC.
Well, good luck everyone and thanks for all the help over the years! Not planning on leaving, but have one foot in the door!
