Pros and Cons of owning a class A RV
Owned a truck and 5th wheel for 5 years and loved it. Unfortunately circumstances caused me to sell both last fall. Thinking now about buying another when I saw a 1999 Class A with less than 100,000 ...

I agree; we disagree.
It appears to me that you want to compare a fiver + truck to a Class A with no toad. A big Class A with no toad is not much more practical for vacations or fulltiming than a fiver with no truck. Add a toad that is comparable in comfort, quality, and age to your large truck and the Class A (all things being equal) costs more. When I say "all things being equal" I mean comparable age, size, quality, and features of the 2 RVs.
If you're going to high end fivers, they start at maybe $100,000. If you're going to high end Class A it's maybe 2 or 3 times that much, to start. Sure, you can buy a cheap, smallish Thor or Forest River, but I say that's not comparable to a big, studly fiver.
