This is for newbies.
Buying your first RV trying to save money and doing no research. Buying an older gas MH with no slides only to find out it needed $8,000 worth of work to be road ready and had no room to even dress in and no power to make it up I-75 in Tn. Selling it for a $6,000 loss.
Then, buying a 5th wheel thinking you could double tow to haul your Harley and finding out you can't double tow. Selling it for a $3,000 loss.
Then, having to buy a toy hauler with 3 slides to finally get what you should have bought in the first place. Lesson learned.....
