We are not discussing fiberglass siding campers, rather fiberglass campers, built out of fiberglass, not wood. Built like a boat. The fiberglass is the structure. There should be no wood structures in these. Bigfoot is one brand. Big difference.

Good pass on the mold. That is a health issue and not fun to clean out. Though, fiberglass, if you can reach every area, is fairly straight forward to clean, if you can get to it.
