Regret buying a motorhome?

Motorhome draw backs: 4-6 miles per gallon; must pay to have hitch reinforced and motorhome frame has to be boxed (welded) to keep the frame from buckling; if it's been sitting for a while chances are that it will need tires and all the systems checked, don't forget to check for recalls. If new, you can look forward to 15 years of payments and when you're done with it you will be upside down in it and will have to take a loss when it's sold. But, if you have children and can use it for weekend vacations you might be able to get your money's worth

That's my experience with a motorhome and racing.
