Everytime I go look at new RV's I fall in love with some unit with a slide. They feel so roomy inside compared to my non slide unit or the bed is walk around. But I have found that the non slide fits my travel style better. If I went to campgrounds and stayed for a week or longer I think I would upgrade to a slide unit, but I get itchy feet every couple days and want to move on. A few times I have gone destination camping, once in the Keys and once at Quartzite and when I got hit with bad weather the slide would have been real nice, but usually I am on the road or in a Natl park and will stay 2 or 3 days at one site then move to another park or just move to another camp ground in the same park. I like to keep things as simple as possible, my last new car (2012) had crank windows, manual trans and no keyless entry.
