>>1281130I completely agree, I was just speaking in general of a glamping at the forest entrance scenario to get the thread started. A lifted 4x4 with a truckbed camper could go a lot further, with a decent small lifted trailer for hauling all the other stuff of your camp and a quad, you'd be able to go way out and then go even further. Alternatively add a motorcycle rack to your 4x4 lifted van and get a dual sport bike.
>>1280864New ones with the amenities inside cost upwards of 80k+, you can probably finance one that's a few years old for much lower. Getting an older van, lifting it and putting a fancy topper that essentially makes it a class C(bed over cab) would probably be a much better way to go, if only for the mechanical work you can do yourself and you'd be paying way too much for anything newer than 2010. Give it 10 years and a lot of these old people who live in RVs will be dying off, the market will probably be flooded because today's economy isnt anything like the economy that enabled all these older people to acquire $300k motorhomes. The days of working at the same company till you accrue a pension and benefits, selling your house that you bought comparatively for pennies and moving into a 300k luxury RV are gone. There's a saturation of old people living in RVs waiting to die and nobody is going to be there to fill their space. Their kids will probably sell the RVs for cheap when they can't afford to store them.
