Also forgot to add, the cost of a truck that is able to pull many towables safely has gotten crazy as well.....
Not necessarily. Austere base model trucks are available at reasonable prices. It’s just that so many think they need a fancy soccer dad truck. But fancy trucks don’t tow any better; indeed, because they have less payload than stripper trucks they’re not as good, if anything.
I meant compared to a car. That's often the choice for many people... they can't afford to have a car and a tow vehicle, so their tow vehicle has to function as a daily driver as well. Driving a truck to work every day can get expensive, especially during times when gas prices are higher. It's just another added expense to RVing that younger people maybe can't afford to do.
