Parking enclosed trailer on blacktop driveway

I want to make the final decision tomorrow on concrete verses asphalt. I can get the concrete for 4,650 or the asphalt for 3,200. It's a 53x10 driveway where I'll park my trailer and little motorhome for extended periods. I'm told if I set some wood planks under the tires I shouldn't have much problem with the asphalt sinking. These are both very well respected companies that would be doing the work. I still have to do the roof on my garage and home this year as well as doing the shortblock for my SSer and the motorhome hitch which was quoted at 1,400 and money isn't growing on tree's here so the 1450 I save in asphalt could pay for the hitch and get me out testing by Oct I hope. I really want the concrete but I may be selling the house in a few years to move to the Catawissa area, a few miles from Numidia and I hate to sink in money I may loose. any thoughts, thanks, Paul.
