Since we sold our truck & 5th wheel two yrs ago (due to health reasons and lack of sufficient use) we REALLY MISS having our "STUFF" with us.
We had been accumulating a duplicate of all the comforts of home. Now when we do happen to travel out of town and stay at motels we get very bored. Cable sucks, limited quantity of channels and poor quality.
But we do get 33-34 mpg. Doesn't take long to pack two suitcases and overnight bad and laptop. Trailer would take a day or two to prepare, load in fresh linen, clothing and food.
I hate trying to use wife's 15.6" laptop when I used to 25" monitor/desktop, prefer mouse over pad. Don't have to scrolled nearly as much to see the entire page.
On long trips, 3 mos or so, rv is the only way to go UNLESS you are in a hurry with limited time, then fly.
If you have a capable truck to pull trailer and stay within weight ratings, you still have to travel a lot to cut down the $$$ per mile to reasonable level. You don't rv to save money. You rv to enjoy the outdoors and see this beautiful country of ours.
Off my soap box now:B.
