Anyone make a mistake buying first MH ?
Just curious.. No matter how much research you do , it seems there is no substitute for owning and using a MH.. Anyone buy one and then realize you made a mistake on the first one.. If so, how did you...

We bought our first RV in 1993 after borrowing a relatives for a vacation and getting hooked.
It was a 1972 Winnebago. Ugliest thing we had ever seen, but it was what we could afford at the time.... $2000.00. and it was ours! Got it on the freeway driving it home and the entry door flew off and ran down the freeway! Fixed it up, interior and exterior and sold it for $4500.00 a couple years later.
Bought a 1978 Pace Arrow with that money, fixed it and sold it for $6403.00 a couple years later. Lol.
Next coach was a Class C that lasted about 6 months after we realized it had NO storage.
Then came the other Pace Arrow, 35 footer with no slides. Enjoyed that for a few years and during the crash and auto buy back thing that was happening, we traded for a double slide DP.
In retirement planning, realized we got more bang for the buck in a fifth wheel ( That we swore we would NEVER have ).
Three 5r's later, we found one that will work for full timing.
We do not believe any coach you buy will be a " mistake "
You will learn what type of layout you need to make you happy, and with each coach you own, you will learn more and more.
Only mistake is being scared of making a mistake.
