Big rig trucks drive 8,000 miles a month without breaking down once! They might go 10 years and never need a tow truck! It is all in the preventive maintenance. You don't wait until you have a blowout to replace your tires, you replace them at about 7 years old, (according to the date codes on the tire) or when the tires look worn out.
Same thing with engine service. The engine will last over 300,000 miles in line service driving a 18 wheeler coast to coast several times a month! It is not rare to see a used 5 year old Volvo with a 14 liter inline 6 and 540,000 miles on it! Many of the used trucks for sale have between 500,000 and 750,000 miles on them, and are only a few years old.
Motorhomes are very reliable!
Have fun camping!
