My friend calls me crazy for spending 70K for a motorhome. He makes the case that hotels and restaurants are a much cheaper way to vacation. I average 30 nights a year. Initial cost is 2 times more than a car. Gas 4 times more.
What is your thoughts?
Thanks,

He's right.
Owning a motorhome makes no financial sense. Nor does owning a boat, a plane, a pool and a dozen other things.
That said - we're in ours for other reasons.
And we have no intention of every trying to make financial sense out of it. :)

Ask your friend how much he spends on golf, hunting, ATV'ing, boating, the honkin truck he might have bought when a normal vehicle would have served the same purpose. etc etc etc etc.
Or perhaps your friend just sits in his house and does nothing else in life and just can't wrap his brain around others who have a hobby and/or go out and have fun with their family!:W
