My buddy bought his latest Country Coach new in 1998 when he was in his upper 60's. Now in his 80's he used me as the driver on a couple of trips. I think in his case, driving at 84 with brain cancer was out of the question. He still owns the RV and goes out there every once in a while to recall the happy memories of driving it while younger.
He also has pictures of his older RV's on the walls. He used to have a 1984 and 1990 Elite. The Elite burnt up while in PA, he barely had time to disconnect his Bronco and drove it home.
Might as well take the time to RV now, not start at 80. I might suggest a smaller class C, or something. They handle well, and are only a little larger than a 1975 Station Wagon!
Have fun camping!
