Five months, 25 states, 13,151 miles and we're back home at last. Bittersweet: Glad to be home, but missing the road already. Oh, well, only 7 more months til we take off again..... It feels weird to be able to take more than 5 steps in any direction and not run into something.

Same here. We like home in FL but love to travel. On the road now in the woods (FL State Park) and moved north. Will be back home in Nov. and planning the next trip out. Motorhome has over 103,000 miles on it now.

Isn't is sort of sad when you see Motorhomes(and other RV's) for sale and you know they haven't been used to ther full potential. I scan the for sale ads frequently and see units all the time that are 10, 20, and even 30 years old, that have less than 50K miles on them. -------------------- Chris G.

Ours was purchased new in May, 2007 and we have spent over 1200 nights in it since then in a lot of different areas. We have just about 15,000 miles on the odometer. Low mileage does not necessarily mean not used to potential. We, through the years, have been overnight in 48 states and every continent except antarctica. For us it is the destination, not the journey that is desirable. Your mileage may vary. |

We generally go from point A to point B and then stay there for 1-4 months. If there is something along the way that piques our interest, we will stay over night to see it. Otherwise I just want to get where I'm going. Our MH is eight years old, has 32K miles and we average in excess of four months a year in it. To us we simply transfer our home from the S&B to the MH and back again. We get the best of both worlds for us that way. |
