We took a trip out west when my first wife was first diagnosed with cancer. I used a friend's self contained pusher RV. That thing was fancier then most houses I ever lived in. It was not cheap on diesel fuel but we had our own beds and such. It was nice not having to pack suitcases every morning. Plus out west hotels can be a real pain to find in many areas and they are booked real early in the afternoons.
I liked that trip and thought the RV made it better. If I was going places with more towns and such I would not take a RV. You can drive a car and rent hotel rooms much cheaper then the cost of fuel/parking for an RV. Plus it gets both of you away from the daily house work/cooking thing. I always thought a vacation in a RV was not much of one for the wife if she still had to cook and clean.
I hear many complain about the beds and sheets. I have never had an issue with any of the hotels I have ever stayed at. Slept with out either too many time in my youth to complain too much.
PS Side story. My Great Aunt and Uncle would go on vacation with my family when I was a kid. They where skin flint type of people. You had to drive half the night to find the cheapest hotel/motel you could find. Then my Aunt would complain the whole next day about how terrible the place was. Made my Dad so mad he just started paying for the rooms himself and stopped where he wanted too. It was no fun going on vacation with five kids and four adults in a station wagon with no AC. The law would arrest you for child endangerment if you did that these days. I can remember riding for days on top of the suitcases in the back of the car.

I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
