Re: [A/S] Buying Input
Steve makes an excellent point about renting a motorhome to see how you like
it.
Through the years, we have owned four Airstream trailers, two tent campers
and a class c motorhome. Each has its strong points. While we were working,
the tent campers were good for getting away for a weekend. It was too
crowded for a longer stay. The mini-home was very good for getting from
point A to point B. Kids could set at the table or on the beds and play
games, read stories, or watch TV while we were underway. Wife would also
cook while I drove. Also, the restroom was always handy. I would get up and
start driving before anyone else got out of bed. Would be a long way down
the road before they awoke.
The travel trailer is hard to beat for extended stays in one spot. I also
think it is more cost effective.
Your are on the right track. Ask a lot of questions. Look at different
units. Consider renting a motorhome for a trip. make a list of pluses and
minuses for the different options.
