I've owned travel trailers, fifthwheels and now this diesel pusher so I know how it is camping in all three. As far as value, I know the trade in value for my diesel pusher dropped $5,000 from last months nada book to this one, after talking to the sales manager about this issue, I almost feel desperate to make the move . As far as using it more, there is no way. My wife works every Saturday and has Sundays off, I have weekends off so weekend getaways are out of the picture. If I went fifthwheel, I was thinking about putting it on a seasonal sight locally and pull it out for vacations.
