    I've read that many full-timers recommend a diesel "pusher" type of Class-A - the engine is in the back.

    Anyone have experience with those?

    Dad's boss owned a Newell. For years. Very dependable, diesel pusher.

    If you want to go First Class....

        You could stay in a lot of really swanky hotels before you'd spent $2 million, plus you wouldn't have to clean out your own septic tank.

          And buy your own linens and cookware!

          A suite at the Ritz Carlton....about $750 a night, let's say.

          $2,000,000/750 = about 7.4 years.

          Of course, room service and tips are extra.

            You could stay at Hill Top Farm, complete with libidinous farmer's daughter, for decades.

            I guess it would get old, eventually

                          I got a great massage from a tall blond stewardess in first class one night. Probably as close as I’ll get to that.

                                    I have always thought a 5th wheel and truck made the most sense. If looked after, the trailer unit keeps its value longer over time. A well maintained 3/4 or 1 ton truck also have a decent used vehicle market value. The same cannot be said for RVs.

                                    Having said that, my preference would be always be a truck bed camper. I sold my camper this year for exactly what I paid for it 24 years ago. I still have the 3/4 ton 4X4 long box truck.

                                      You could stay in a lot of really swanky hotels before you'd spent $2 million, plus you wouldn't have to clean out your own septic tank.

                                      And buy your own linens and cookware!

                                      A suite at the Ritz Carlton....about $750 a night, let's say.

                                      $2,000,000/750 = about 7.4 years.

                                      Of course, room service and tips are extra.

                                      Take the $2,000,000 and invest it at a nice safe 5% then use the $100k in interest to live in an all inclusive resort in the Bahamas indefinitely.

                                        Any form of living that doesn't have enough space for a decent grand piano is not for me.

                                        Seriously, though: If I'd want to go on vacation for a year, I'd take a normal car and rent houses/apartments/... as needed. Much more comfortable. I've rented a trailer for a vacation a few years ago. It was a "never again" experience. The things that annoyed me most would be the same in an RV, even when it's a $2M RV.
