Seems Like a Waste

I know it shouldn’t bother me but it does. This RV has been sitting on the storage lot unused since the end of 2012. It seems like a sin to me to just let an RV sit and deteriorate like it has. Someone has been making the monthly payments for the storage area all these years so I know it isn't abandoned.

For all the discussion we go through on this forum, concerning RV values,new vs. used etc. The only way to get value out of any RV is to use it.
An RV does not have to be totally abandon as this one appears to be.
I see plenty of apparently abandon RV's sitting in driveways in my travels.

One of the reasons that I keep mine parked outside my house. Reminds me to use it, but then so does the check I write every month...

I agree that it's a shame, but there could be any number of reasons, perhaps the owner has traveled on to the great CG in the sky, and the storage place hasn't tried to auction it off, or has tried & got no bids on it.
Or, just could've been abandoned due to owners age/illness.
Perhaps, if you/someone contacted the storage place, and it's been abandoned, they may just give it away just to get it hauled away. Great project for a DIYer.

Overall it doesn't look too bad, except for the dirt. Is that an expired Missouri license plate on the front?
I'm sure there is a story involved.
