Popups rule for occasional use. Full height RVs eat your life. They're constantly needy: they attract vandals, you're constantly worried about the roof leaking (or you're paying big for covered storage), they control what vehicle you drive in everyday life, you stress about getting stuck on dead end roads, driving them cross country costs more than hotels....they're a hassle.
Really? Never had any of those problems myself.
You've taken your full height RV on a cross country trip and had it cost LESS than staying in hotels? Me doubts.
Most RVs eventually die from water leaks causing rot/mold that costs more to repair than the camper is worth. So I guess you just haven't had your RV for that long yet. Having been at this for 40 years now, nobody in my family that has stored the pup in the garage has ever had one rot out. Everybody in my family/friends that has a TT or moho for over 10 years has experienced the roof leak = wallet leak issue so common to RVs.
