Assuming you're in Texas, I'd say the biggest problem is actually people that don't ever care for the roof. The TPO or EPDM is usually just fine (assuming it's not parked under a tree) - but I'd say that 90% of the RVs that I've looked, including those DPs that are pretty high end, don't have annual or better roof maintenance done.
Shop for covered/garage kept - be picky. You'll find one.
Although I think it's better to have a non-rubber roof, I've had 10-year old RVs in Texas that were fine with rubber roofs as long as they were maintained.. . (Most of mine were covered though).
And I think you're right, if you ever have to replace the roof, I'd probably look at one of those composite liquid alternatives.
