You need to be sure of condition before you buy it, problems tend to be structural in the house even when all the mechanical stuff is taken care of. The house has a lot of materials that age, rubber and plastics, and others susceptible to damage by water, fungus, rodents, insects. You need to know what you are looking at, how to evaluate it. I have more experience with 80s and 90s, see a few good ones and a lot ready for the scrap pile. Also see five year old RVs ready to be scrapped, not taken care of.
how much when you travel? About $0.50 per mile for fuel and an occasional topping off of other fluids. $0 -$50 a day (I average about $30) for a place to stay, and the cost of whatever breaks next. Fixing something major, mechanical or in the house, could cost more than you pay forit. I average about $600 a year on one ten years old, preventive maintenance and little stuff that adds up. This is whether on the road or sitting in storage, it is the weather that does things to the house, not so much the miles.
