My question is, how many full timers have 20,000 pounds of stuff to carry around? most of us down size, not just carry all our stuff with us.
Frugal ? I guess not.
Yeah, but you're not a full-timer. I'm one of those weird guys that likes to play with a bunch of toys. Convertible car, UTV, several motorcycles. etc. Even weirder, also enjoy working on and maintaining those toys, thus the requirement of a full tool bay, welder, generator, air compressor etc. All that weight adds up quick, and to be on the safe side I'd rather have something that can easily pull all that weight (and then some), rather than always having to worry if the tail is wagging the dog, much like you would find in your normal class of DP's. They just don't have the weight carrying and towing capacities as a Class 8 based coach chassis has. Are you beginning to understand the reasoning?
