Thanks for posting that Frankdamp.
The only time a Class A is economical is when you turn the key off and live in it. We would snowbird in ours for six months, put on about 5K miles during that time, and camp at nice but reasonable sites (COE, casino, etc..) Even with all of that going on I would view it as a breakeven. Thank goodness the engine or tranny never went. That would have pushed it way into the red. That was also the reason we sold it. I just no longer felt confident it was a cross country machine. I'm sure it was, but I didn't want to chance it.
