re: Anyone here have an RV?

There is some sound advice in this thread, especially about RV's being somewhat cheaply made. My father in law is on his fifth unit in 25 years. Says he wont go anywhere but Gauthier's on I-10 after years of terrible service experiences at the other dealers in the area. He'll drive a little further to get there now (also lives near Alexandria). You don't want to buy a new unit and then have it laid up in the dealer's device lot for 4 months because of incompetent service departments.

He also said used is fine but buyer beware. Some places will sell you campers with soft slide floors and rotten leaky roofs, so inspect them well.
