Shopping For The Next RV?

After owning four motorhomes over the years, you'd think we were satisfied with the one we have.  And we are.  However, looking down the road to the future, we know that there will come a day when we need to come off the road and buy another house.  That doesn't mean we'll be done traveling, we intend to have a much smaller motorhome so we can still travel to places without carrying everything we own in it.

Today we looked at our appointment schedule and found it to be like just every other day - clear.  So we wandered down to the South Carolina RV show in nearby Columbia, SC to look at smaller motorhomes, kick some tires and be a pain-in-the-butt to RV salesmen drooling to sell us a shiny new motorhome.

We looked at some Class Cs.

One thing we are not too happy with on our Journey is how hard it is to make the bed.  Looking at this Class B, it appears you have to make it from the outside.  We've quit complaining about our bed.

Then a motorhome caught Marti's eye.

It was an Entegra Aspire (by Jayco).  All 45 feet of it.

It was really (really) nice.  The inside was quite something to see, too.

The price point was amazing.  Hmm, we had to pause and think about it for a minute or two.

We eventually passed, even though the salesman was doing the high pressure routine with the "Show Only" price tag.  Maybe we'll visit the factory someday and look again.

Bottom line, looks like the future might hold a bigger, not smaller motorhome someday before the return to a sticks-n-bricks.  For now, and for a long time, we'll enjoy every mile we drive and every night we stay in our Journey.
