Is it worth it?
Well, we put our fiver away into indoor storage 2 weeks ago after an interesting season. We took the fiver out of storage in early April and got sideswiped by a new driver one week later on the way...

We are on our fourth rig now and really like this one so we will likely keep it, although the thought of downsizing is somewhat appealing at times.
I'm confident some of us find this statement somewhat inconsistent with your earlier concerns about the costs involved in supporting your current RV lifestyle when a significant reduction in your investment and ongoing maintenance / operating costs could be made by downsizing not only the rig but also the truck you use to pull it with. Yes, you may really like your current 5th but honestly do just 2 adults and a 7 yr old really require a big 5th and a dually with which to pull it, especially when we're talking just weekends and a couple of week long trips each season? The answer from many of us would be no, not at all, since camping in a 20' travel trailer can be just as satisfying, as many of us do it all the time. I guess you're just musing at this stage but I know what my solution would be if I were in your shoes. ;)
