When I was younger we traveled all over the lower 48 and never gave breakdowns a thought, just fixed them and kept going. Now that I am an old geezer and can't do the stuff I used to do, we are somewhat hesitant to just take off and go where ever.
And, mo-ho's are so much more complex now, that finding a competent repair person in The Middle Of No-where is hard to do....
X2 on everything you said.
The hardest part of MH'ing for me was turning the key. Once I was on the road no problems. I think the more you know the harder it is when you age. You understand what things can go wrong, but you no longer have the physical ability to do your own repairs.
For short trips we now use a very reliable Toyota and hotel it. Anything under 2-3 weeks.
For longer trips I jumped shipped from the Class A to a Chev truck and 5'th wheel. Now if I can't find someone to fix a Chev then I just went too far :B
