McMansions On Wheels, Have We Gone To Far
Just curious if others out there like me that think "Have we gone to far as to camping in a RV that cost many thousands of dollars", I sort of think how we use to camp back in the 50's, 60's and 70's,...

I doubt anyone with a Newell goes "camping". And the thread title implies other than tent versus giant RV.
I take it to read that towables (in main) have gotten to be too much. And I agree. I can hardly see how my grandparents fulltimed across the US, Canada and Mexico without much more than clothing and food. That all aluminum 28' Streamline did the rest. The combined rig wouldn't have weighed much more than 13k.
Today there are these lumbering dinosaurs where the trailer itself weighs far more than that. What more is on offer? More space to heat and cool? More time spent cleaning?
Why on earth would someone want to solo in a one ton versus a full size car? Etcetera.
Mysteries abound.
Quantity replaced quality as a measure somewhere along the way.
Sort of like the size of the average American nowadays versus his forebear and the quality of their respective educations.
