For those of you that are suggesting getting a fiver... that isn't an option for several reasons.. first they have steps inside and my knees don't like steps.. second my truck won't handle a very big one. and as I am a female who will be traveling by myself (except for occasional grandchild visit), I want a Motorhome for security.
I am thinking Gas instead of diesel because of maintenance cost.. and the fact that I have NO CLUE of how a diesel engine works. I have quiet enough issues convincing repair shops here not to assume because I am female I will go along with whatever they say. I won't have any knowledge to bargain with on diesel.
