Our search has been a learning experience. We went from looking at small C's to small A's back to C's under 30'. I have discovered that right now is probably the absolute worst time to be looking for an RV. Everything we have looked at is either way overpriced or beat beyond redemption. I am resigned to losing this camping season. Our plan is to keep looking but plan to actively re-enter the RV market in the fall when the inventory is hopefully better. We may even wait another year to add to what we can afford for our new RV.
What we have found to be most desirable for us is something under 30' with a walk around queen, a large shower, a sofa, the dinette on the passenger side, and an overhead bunk for the grandkids, not an entertainment center. I am thinking that I may have to step up to a new RV to get what we want. I was hoping to avoid an RV payment but that now appears to be unlikely if we are to continue in this lifestyle. On the plus side, it is nice having a big chunk of money in the bank. The hardest step for me so far was giving up our cheap and secure RV parking spot as they now have a waiting list. C'est la vie!
