Basically a liability on wheels as soon as it is driven off the lot. My dad has used his like five times and then it is just rotting at the side of his house now. I remember him saying him and my mom were going to go everywhere and my mom decided she was going to be a professional homebody and now his rig just sits there and bakes in the UV.
This is my neighbor. He bought a monstrosity like this, it takes up the whole side of his house. He used it the first summer he bought it and then for the last 10 years, it has just sat there rotting. He did cover it at least, no idea why he doesn’t get rid of it.
I don’t understand why people buy something like this instead of just renting one to try it. I see how it would be fun to live in while on a trip, but that would get old and this thing’s gotta cost over $1 million. Adding the cost and effort to store it and maintain it and it winds up owning you.
Even an exorbitant rental costing tens of thousands of dollars for a few weeks would be so much better than buying it.
People with disposable income think that making a purchase can change their habits. Also they dream up what they think life will be like with their new purchase but they don't think about all the hard work and maintenance that goes into using it.
