A couple of questions for the group.
Hi Folks, We ran a class A Pace Arrow back when the kids were the size of our Grand babies today. With just the 2 of us now we are setting up a C. I was wondering if you would care to share, ho...

24' Class C owned since new bought Labor Day weekend 2011. 45k miles on it, so usually 8-9k a year. How do we use it? Just got back from a typical trip: home base at a race track, spending last week at the Sebring 12-hour. It took leaving the northeast a couple of days early to beat a snowstorm, overnighting along I-95 then stashing the RV in the long-term lot at MCO, flying home and then returning to it Wednesday, heading to the track and then leaving for home Sunday getting back mid-day Monday. Total nights = 6; total miles = 2400. We usually end up with about 40 days a year in it.
I plan on keeping it to the 12 year point; maybe a couple past that, roughly in line with when I plan to retire and I'll be ready for the next unit.
No real outrageous maintenance. The Michelin recall got me 6 new tires; that set has another year or two to go. I just replace the original house battery with a pair of Group 31 AGM's. Had a few annoyances during the warranty period that I just took care of, as well as am a seam checker 3x or 4x a year. Currently dealing with what I think is a dead fuel pump (common problem), but after 950 hours of run time, result of all that dry camping, and just oil, plug and air filter changes I guess it's allowed.
