Regarding your Rv mechanic. The above has put a strain on labor availability just about everywhere. But even more so in blue states.
But I’d expect difficulty anyway.
As one mentioned, old stuff breaks and shops charge a lot of money. And more often than with newer vehicles, the repairs tend to escalate and the cost of the repair is a much higher % of the vehicle value and the typical owners of said vehicles have less money than owners of new vehicles. Leaving shops arguing more with these owners and risking lack of compensation and less efficiency in their work.
Bottom line, if you aren’t rich, you gotta be smart or everything will be a struggle. And maybe the luxury of a RV is not in the cards financially.
