Still have our 15 year old POS TT and as long as I keep it maintained and don't let anything go too long before fixing it, it's all good.. ;)
We are only long weekend campers, once a month between May and Sept and we only go to State Parks in WA state and OR..
We make reservations 9 months ahead of time and get the sites we want. In no way am I close to a six figure salary, but I enjoy the time away from my modest home and work. :)
We avoid all holiday weekends, so that helps a lot too... Although, this year, we will be camping the weekend just before the 4th, but are leaving the day before the 4th...
Anyway, I refuse to stay in any "rv resort" for just the reasons you give...
Good luck with it all.. There are other ways to 'camp' with your RV, so just have to find the style that suits you best.
