Hi,
I don't understand why you won't be able to use it periodically. Are you saying that your wife's work schedule and yours is such that you'll never have the same days off? No "weekend get-a-ways"? Heck, even overnighters...in the driveway? :) Man, you're in Florida where you can use the rig 365 days a year. You don't even have to take it "out of commission" for winterizing.
At 40,000 miles, the chassis has lots of life left in it. I can't directly respond about the interior. Do YOU think it's very worn? Remember the buyer (dealer) will do and say whatever possible to keep the price low.
We've often used our motorhome just for day trips. It's just so much nicer to travel in than the minivan. During the off season, we sometimes even use it just to go to the mall or do other shopping.
I'm assuming your rig is paid for, so the biggest expense is behind you. We've had a few summers where we weren't able to use our rig as much as we would have liked, but I really can't even imaging NOT having a motorhome to travel in.
Good Luck in whatever decision you make.
