How Often Do You Trade?
Hello Folks! I trust you are staying warm and getting ready to move for the summer.
My sweetie and I have a 2011 Cameo 5th wheel that we enjoy. It is 37ft long and is paid for. We are trying to map out our next few rigs in some thoughtful manner so we can begin making other decisions. We are both 53, still work full time, though most of it is remote (not tied to an office). I do however need to be close to a major airport. We do not currently plan to sell our stick and brick home.
We like the 5th wheel configuration, but it seems to take a little more work than we may want to handle in our 60's or later. We aren't ready to trade into a big DP today, but that is definitely in our future - we just aren't sure where.
It seems to make sense to plan the travel style first, then match the rig to the style. For example, if we plan to move around a good bit in our 60's, maybe the next rig is the DP, then swap back to a 5th wheel (if at all) in our later years. Or should that solution be reversed?
We don't have a bazillion dollars, but we do have the luxury of being able to plan the next few decades in several different ways.
What have you guys done and how has it worked for you? Would love to hear from as many of you as have time.
Thanks so much. God bless! and Safe Travels.
