So I have finally decided that I am getting an RV in the next year, probably in the fall. We went to an RV show and looked at the Hybrids which I can pull with my Jeep, and my wife was happy with it, and didn't want to look at a pop-up. I love the idea of having a trailer that is truly mobile, not one that I have to leave at a campsite all summer. I don't have a need for a truck so a 5th wheel is not an option.
I am worried though about the durability of these ultralight campers, I have heard they are pretty much disposable if there is ever a leak and get a squishy floor. If I am going to buy one for my family, I want it to last. I plan on taking good care of it, and I will modify my mom's garage to keep it in when I'm not using it.
Most of the "battle wagon" Class C motorhomes from the 80's are still running and in fair shape at tailgates, do you think any of these lightweights ever last even 20 years?
I would buy an older MH but I want to be assured that I will reach my destination, and if my Jeep needs work, I can DIY. I doubt that will be the case with a MH.
