This isn't your "forever" camper... You bought it to use and enjoy and the key word there is "enjoy". I've got news for you, it's deprecating every day, they won't give you a dime more if you keep it in a box or you use it for what it intended. The only way you can maximize your investment (or loss in this case) is maximize your quality time with it.
Yes, I run mine in the snow and ice and cold. It gets covered in salt, mud and road grime, it gets dents and scrapes and bounced around something awful. I average about 13K miles a year, but I take care of it... When I traded my last one in to the same guy I bought it from 2.5 years earlier he said "didn't you use it?" "Well yes I did it has 29,000 miles on it."
BTW: I cover mine so it will be clean and ready for when I want to use it.
