Example: I once paid over 3,000 a year in property tax on a house, Now I pay less than 400 (382 to be specific) on my RV.
I once paid over 250 a month for gas, electric, and water/sewer
If Im at an EXPENSIVE cg it's 350/month, but if Im using my memberships less than 100, I should average way under 200/month this year, That includes electric, water and sewer (I still pay for gas, likely about 180 this year).
So a lot of folks are now legally hOmeless, living in a motor home or trailer of one kind or another.
This means the repair shops are overloaded so it's a long time to appointment.
And new devices, Well it can take a while before parts are shipped out to repair shops, and then once the RV is a bit older, parts can become hard to find.
