There are a lot of variables you can play with, but a bit of Googling suggest RV's will save you around $100-$150 per day compared to hotels. (Part of that is assuming you're cooking your own meals rather than eating out.)

So, if we assume you're spending around $25k on a mid-level, used RV, a rough guesstimate (ignoring stuff like time value of money, maintenance, and interest rates) says you'll get your money out of it if you use it for 200 nights or more.

Maybe someday when I retire...

I honestly don't understand the appeal of RV's.

They're just in a weird place in my mental space that just doesn't work for me. Want to stay in a nice place? Get a hotel. Want to go out and experience nature? That's what tents are for.

They're just too damned expensive (both price and cost of ownership) for me to understand the value proposition.

The killer for me is you are stuck with a monster boat when you arrive where you are going unless you have a tow car.

Here, I'll make you feel better. See that black lock plate on his entry door? ONE company makes those for almost every RV on the road. And there are about 30 different key sets. So, you're sittin' there at the campground surrounded by 50 or 100 or 200 other units, and the odds are, well, you're a math guy...

That probably didn't sway you, I guess.

Actually there's a different key for the deadbolt so that lessens the fun possibilities somewhat...

Why the **** would a Raiders fan buy an RV?

You can't even cross state lines...

It's known as a Mobile Prison. Easier to catch and house multiples of "them" in one slow moving spot.
