Fastback, are you saying I would get better MPG and performance from a Gas engine? That's not been my previous experience from the engines I've worked with.
Darsben1, I'm only looking at Used. I can't afford what I want in New. Current budget is around $65K to 70K (RV only) but seems to be creeping up.
Age wise I'm 57. No kids.
My plans are to retire completely in a few years and travel and explore the US. I have some friends that did the "50 states tour" (over a period of a couple of years) and loved it. So wife and I want to do that.
I'll be full-time retired, but I don;t think I would be in the RV more than a few weeks at time before returning home. But to tour the west coast may take more time. That would at the far end of the tour when we build up more experience. We would start out with some in-State RVing.
I will need to bring a tow-behind.
I have not owned an RV before. My last camping days where a pickup with slide-in camper. But we are too old for that level of camping.
Also, I want to be able to drive routes like the Blue Ridge Parkway and Skyline drive - so need power for mountains.
What do you think?
