Welcome back to the land of the camping. :)
We took over a decade off not because of debt but rather a work schedule that killed our summers. Spent a lot of time over seas finding out that cities in others countries were a lot like cities here. We bought the trailer in 2011 when we closed that portion of the business. At the time it made more sense to take a short term loan and leave the money drawing higher interest rates liquid in case we needed it for business. ( business loan harder to get than RV loan) We were all too happy to buy the trailer back from the insurance when it got lightly hail damaged last year. Other than some dimples on the front it has no issues and will last for years.
With the trailer paid off our home is the only debt. The trucks are 8, 11 and 12 years old but all have lower miles and we have no need to replace them.
Would I like a new Expedition with the Eco-boost? Sure but they cost more than some motor homes and would only shorten our drives in the mountains by minutes. I'd like a up grade to the trailer too but after reading all of the horror stories about new rigs, I think ours with no issues will be with us for quite a while.
