This is a great thread with a lot of posts that have really got me thinking.
My wife and I are in our early 40's and have a 5 year old son. We have owned an RV for about 20 years now. We have a significant investment in our rig and after going to Maui last winter and absolutely loving it, we were also thinking of maybe getting out of RVing. After a lot of thought we have decided to stay in it, at least for now. We get out 15-20 times per year (many of them weekends) so we do get good use out of our rig and really love camping. We find it is a good reprieve from simply working around the house/yard all weekend and gives us good quality family time. We have also met a lot of great people camping over the years and still are good friends with many of them. We also came to the conclusion that we can't afford to go to Maui every year :B
I do find towards the end of the camping season I am getting tired of the amount of work it takes to go out for a weekend. So we may get out of it at some point but for now we're in!
