The month I sold my house to hit the road RV'ing, gas in my area skyrocketed to $5.00. THAT was THE most expensive trip ever from up North to Florida for me!
I was burning thru cash like there was no tomorrow just on gas for the MH. Sure made me wonder if I had done the right thing wanting to be an RV'er. :B
