Previous/Previous 10 years - lap527ExplorerWe have had our TC for 5 years, bought it new. Previous to that we had a 5th wheel for 7 years. There were TTs, TC, and a class C before that. I think we are so spoiled with the TC due to travel and set up it will be awhile before we do anything different.
- dodge_guyExplorer IIOur first TT was a used Award TT 25ft. had it for a year and a half. then we bought a new 05 28ft Cherokee with bunks and a slide. It was nice but we wanted a real bedroom. So we bought our current 07 (purchased in July 06) 32ft Cherokee with a front bedroom and rear bunkroom and a super slide. We will hopefully be going into a DP in a couple years. so I need this to last that much longer. its all in the maint.!

- crazyroExplorerWe're still new to the whole camping scene. Bought our first last Spring (used, 15 years old). Loved it, updated it, took it on 8 trips. Sold it to get something bigger (used, 12 years old) to accommodate our family this spring. Redoing roof soon and plan on keeping it for at least 5 years.
- CavemanCharlieExplorer IIII've owned my 1993 travel trailer for 6 years now. It was barely used when I bought it but, it was old. I use it every weekend in the summer. She is getting a little rough. I look at different ones once and awhile but, I have this one set up perfectly for me and it was cheap and has more then paid for itself.
I am going to try and squeeze another season out of it next year. I just don't see any reason to spend the money when I can use this one for now.
Who knows what the future will bring. I'm 54 and a old high school buddie of mine died last year. Another had a stroke.
I think that I will run it one more year and see what happens then.
Plus, it is getting harder, and harder, to find camping spots in my area. Too many of them are being taken over by "Seasonal Users" that are just using the camping spots as lake cabins. In our present environment there may not be places for working people to go camping anymore. - Swell1ExplorerHad the last one 5 years, Lost it in a flood at the camp ground. The current one is going on 2 years. I have no plan to get rid of it.
- BobboExplorer IIIMy current RV, one year. I downsized from a Class C that I had for 10 years. I plan to keep this RV for 20 years then hand it down to one of the kids. It is an Airstream.

Too bad this site doesn't let you set up a poll that would display like a graph to show the age range numbers. - PuttinExplorerHave had our '08 Sightseer for 11 years and still love it.
