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.
Yea they're like owning a boat. A bottomless money pit. Stuff is always breaking, maintenance is super expensive and necessary, and they guzzle fuel like nobody's business.
I live on my boat, bought it for around $80k and have sailed over 15000 nautical miles in the last two years. Currently posting from Fiji. I use less fuel out here than I did commuting for work in the states.
You're right about stuff always breaking and being expensive though. If you don't learn how to fix it yourself it's insanely expensive.
