Full time travel, work camping will cause summer months to be fairly sedentary. I could imagine traveling 7-12,000 miles a year, maybe more if we hit any far locations like AK or Canada. Some places will just be the 1 night boon dock and others we will be there for 2-4 weeks.
I know everything will need maintenance and repairs no avoiding that but I would like a platform I can expect to get me to 3-500,000 miles. Were going to be in it for the next 10 years or more.
I guess the gas rvs wont get past 150,000 in many cases.
Also im thinking that a setup with the 8.3 cummins may be better just because i wont be pushing it as hard/ maybe reducing stress and increasing longevity? Hell I dont know lol .
But it seems I can get a well maintained 93-2000 Diesel Pusher at around 50,000 miles for about 20k.. Boy rv's drop value, I guess thats good for me?
