All things that make a laminate floor buckle in an insulated 'house' is sure as heck going to buckle in an RV outside in the elements.
WOW. You have a point there for sure. Never thought of that. We have the wood laminate in our house and you have to watch your temps and keep A/C or heat on. They warned us about that. You could not do that in an RV. Recently saw on another RVish forum photos of a remodel in a camper where they put in what they called "hardwood" floors. I have to think they meant laminate as hardwood would be so heavy. Also they did ceramic tile backsplash behind stove. All looked beautiful, but how could you have ceramic tile in a moving house? Interesting.
I installed laminate last year in the living are of my 5ver and around the sink/shower/toilet area also. Have not had a problem with it so far and am full-timing in it. Also did granite tile counter tops and back splash in the kitchen and bathroom. Nothing has cracked or split.
