The vast majority of RVing is older people. I'm parked this morning in a large, free BLM land outside Quartzsite dispersed CG that has maybe a 100 RVs. They are all big rigs with one or two people and 9 months of the year that is the rule. I think there is one other B in the place. Everyone is spread out. Our nearest neighbor is a 5th wheeler 100 feet away. Being dispersed I parked so none of his windows could see us.
Class B is an exclusive club. It is not obviously for everyone at 2% of the RVing world and it is expensive if you judge it by cost per sq. ft. of space. On the other hand as I sit in this CG I doubt there is another RV here that has traveled 4,800 miles this month and has camped in the diversity of places and campgrounds we have including some impossible places like a driveway, on the street or a mountain top 24 ft. Maximum campground.
I'm convinced now the future of B'ing will be the self-sustained model Roadtrek is pushing with their Etrek concepts. Advanced RV is there now. We are totally independent of the grid and services campground except for a weekly dump and water replenishment. We have full use of our B with 100% use of 120VAC 24/7. I am also typing this in my lazy boy articulated bed position. I'm thinking we could easily full time in this which I guess we are doing from February to June. By the time we finish this trip we will have been to both coasts and will travel over 12,000 miles, maybe more at the rate we are going. I doubt you you could do this in any other RV.
PS. We have no propane or Onan generator.
