> On the flip side, my wife’s aunt and her husband sold everything they owned (house, cars, EVERYHING), bought a coach (fancy term for RV), towable trailer and 3-wheeled spyder thing and spent around 2 years traveling the US. I’m sure it required maintenance but I never heard about any horror stories they had with it. They had a great time traveling the states and have since sold the coach and settled back down.

^^ That sounds like a more believable story. I don’t know anything about RVs but just like anything else you can buy, if it’s truly terrible it eventually fades out of the market. Obviously there are more positive experiences than negative ones or else there wouldn’t be any of RVs on the road. I’ve seen them since I was little, I see them now, and I’ll see them till the day I die.

Every coach owner and food truck owner in the WNY area hated me because of their generators. It seemed fruitless to even try… Back their RV into a boat launch with the generator running… My fault it lit on fire. Ran your food truck 2 weeks without checking the oil and lit it on fire, my fault too. Everyone in the Industry says RV stands for Ruined Vacation. I tend to agree since I never saw a happy owner yet.
