Well, I think the benefit of the motorhome over the truck camper combo is that
the trip there in the motorhome is better. If one is going to be at one spot
for a longer time then I really believe that a truck trailer is better. But,
if one is going to be some where for only a day or two then a motorhome is
pretty much ready to go in a moments notice. Also the frige is full
(hopefully) and the bed is there for passengers to rest while the on the road.
It beats the heck out of trying to sleep in an auto. To get better mileage
then you almost have to have a smaller diesel motorhome. The 30+ foot jobs by
in large are not going to get over 10mpg. The smaller ones can. You basicly
have a house going down the highway. The bigger the house, the heavier and
hence less mpg.

Subject: Re: [MBZ] Ot motorhomes
> crap. So really if I was going to go long distances I would be
better off pulling a trailer behind the duramax which would get 15
at least.
I asked a neighbor of mine why he was taking his family on vacation using his
ruck and a pop-up tent
railer, as opposed to using a class c motor home he picked up for cheap. He
xplained that when you get to
he place where you are going to camp, it is truly a pain to pack up the motor
ome and go to the corner store
o buy groceries, propane, or whatever. With a trailer, you set up the trailer,
hen if you need something, you jump in the truck,
r SUV and go. Way less hassle.
