My take....I've worked a lot of years and grown my business to enjoy what my wife and I like. We bought a new Pinnacle last year, and love it. We plan on starting with some 3 or 4 month trips, hopefully in a year or so. I bought the coach because it was the one both of us liked. After a couple weeks, it starts to get small to us. No complaints and would buy again in a heartbeat. We never took expensive vacations, never traded cars or trucks every few years, and worked ourselves to the place we are where we can enjoy what we like, and having a high end coach is what we decided to do. When we do make it to the next phase, yes we will probably buy a new higher trim 3500. Why? I plan on spending a lot of time behind the wheel and I want to be at ease when we are on the road as we do when we are set up. We've owned older, smaller rvs, and for long term traveling I think bigger is for sure better, just my thoughts....
another comment that does make a lot of sense..
thanks to all the comments, even the derogatory comments. I need to learn how to communicate better. Youd think at 51 id have learned.
I had a long winded post typed out, then saw you posted this.
There are few "derogatory comments" posted here - if any, depending on how you read them. Mine, earlier in this thread, certainly wasn't at all. I had missed where you said you were an American, I thought you were from another country when I read your initial posts.
You posted what could be taken as a derogatory post, and then seemingly got offended by the responses. This is an open forum, all different people post all different things.
Also, did you really pay $9,000 for a brand new diesel Ford in 1999? I bought a 2000 F250 diesel with 40,000 miles on it in 2005, and was happy paying $10,000.
If you bought a used truck, then you should compare the cost of used trucks taking into consideration time - prices do go up over time, especially decades.
