I used to work with a woman who could not understand why I RV.. She wondered why we did just not use a hotel.
Several reasons.. For one thing our retirement plan did not include sticks and bricks,,It did include wheels and an 8.1 Vortec.. The house I lived in was in good shape but the neighbors... Not so much.. had a nice Catholic couple. He was a businessman (Swimming pool installation and maintenance) She a housewife.. They divorced and moved out sold the house to a management company and the folks who moved in.. Well they were business people too.. Illegal business (Marajuana, and other stuff). Just before we left that house got air conditioned.. Several round holes..Thankfully the "Technicians" had good aim and only hit that house.. Also nobody home.
After we left they firebombed the now vacent house.
When I get in a bad neighborhood with the RV... Click, Varoom and go.
But another issue.. WHy RV instead of Hotel BEFORE we retird?
Well did you ever wonder what's under the bed (or matress) in a hotel? Many news crews have investigated and trust me the stories are SCARY
As to what's under the bed/matress in this Class A... I know.. I put it there (Blankts, sheets and extra printer paper mostly)
Life is good.. I'm not yet ready for the other option.
