How so? What is so different and magical about driving a poor handling bus vs a pickup pulling a trailer?
Well, I guess the obvious answer is from the time you leave your driveway, you're in your RV with all of it's amenities available. For us, that was REALLY handy when travelling with the kids. But even for us adults, it's nice to have the potty, refrigerator and snacks available.
I can attest that it IS a real feeling though. Once I get out of the driveway, I feel the vacation has begun! :) Well...I get an additional "tingle" if we cross the state line heading OUT of Massachusetts!!! ;)
LOL
Plus, I've arrived at enough campsites when it was raining to know that it's really nice to just be able to park and wait for the rain to stop before I had to go out and connect or disconnect anything.

Doesn't sound like much of a vacation if you are so focused on making miles that you have to try and function while rolling down the road with kids unbelted and knives flying but if it meets your needs...
As far as setting up in the rain, not really a huge burden to go back and sit in the 5er until the rain stops...but not a witch, so unlikely to melt in a little rain.
