Sorry about your loss- sounds like an un-happy camper story. That’s probably
because you live at the destination point everyone else wants to head to. So
you never needed to go anywhere else to be where you wanted to be.
And too, motorhomes are work and expense for maintenance. Nothing is cheap
anymore.
But... finding a spot to camp during high tourism season is a real chore at
times. So having the ability so free-camp in the boonies is a definite plus,
and I don’t have to pay for the overnight camping spot just to get a fire-ring.
I can take the Chinook places my 34’ Raptor would never go.

We lost about 12,000 dollars on the one we had. Got rid of it after only
taking three short and one long trip with it. Sold it at a loss.

I like it also because I can take off early from work, head down to the
river, fish the evening, camp overnight, fish the early morning, and be
back
to the office by lunch the next day. If I have my cell-phone (with 4G
Hot-spot) and PC, I can conduct any business that comes in, even catch
an
important call in the middle of the river, and they are none the wiser.
If
I have a fish on, I let it go to message, lol.
Like Peggy says too, it's flexible, and if the intended location
doesn't
work out, I can easily head to another location.

The big advantage to a camper is you are loaded and ready to fish, and
can change locations for each trip.
