I saw an episode of tinyhousehunting the other day and came away scratching my head for the stupidity and nieveness of some people. The host was showing a single guy a 24'x8' fifth wheel that had 4 slideout areas for more floor space once you have stopped and set up. This rig looked and acted just like any standard RV but had stained wood siding, an drywall on the interior walls. The paper plans to build this beast was $750, and could be built by the owner for $40,000. The turnkey price was $70,000. I was checking out Craigslist the next day and found a 2013 34" fifth wheel RV with 4 slideouts and a luxury interior. It came with a 2010 Ford F250 diesel King Ranch edition truck all for $33,000.
I just don't get the concept of why these gullible buyers araen't looking in the RV market for nicer and larger living quarters for half the money.
