That's great until it's not an option any more. They extended this stay at home stuff through April 30, that's going to be an expensive rental.
 
Interesting article.

When I renewed my listing in the RVTrader two weeks ago I marketed it as a "Bug out vehicle" and stressed the fact that it had Solar, large tanks and the ability to draw water and filter it by using an external portable water pump, a hose and the power from the generator.

I had three calls today.

It may not be so expensive if they buy an RV now when prices are depressed and then sell it later when things recover.

That runs contrary to my usual MO where I end up buying high and selling low.  :(

Maybe you should refrain from getting high before you decide to buy.  :D

Hmmm... that would be an interesting strategy. Obviously you have considerable experience as a financial advisor??  ;D

Kind of like not going grocery shopping when you are hungry. You always buy stuff you shouldn't have.

Indeed ... going to the grocery store hungry usually means I can?t resist that huge flat box of day-old donuts!  That box makes me a hero with the grandkids on the cheap and I can tolerate the disapproving looks I get from the responsible adults in the room! :D
