From a new forum member, your active forum helped me answer many questions

Just purchased a 98 MADP, my first RV. Looking forward to contributing to the forum.

I'm still happy after the purchase.

For all the mariners in the group, how similar are motor homes to boats?

My wife keeps telling me it's a boat without the water

Having owned both.....I can vouch they are both money pits !! But the enjoyment greatly outweighs the cost.

Welcome to the site, you already know how much you can learn and count on info from all the members. We also own both but find the MH gives us more back then the boat.
