I guess 99% of the people on this forum have figured this out already ;D.....
We have used our old bounder just to go to a lake 40 miles [via shortcut] away, we enjoy the trips for three or four days at a time and them come home and restock and recharge for the next trip......so i have not figured for any trips over even a hundred miles.....
For the last 10 years we have been traveling down thru Cortez, co. and on down to Laughlin for a few days [ car trips]........
Cortez has a lot of places that we want to see, so we decided to take the bounder down for a week, until i figured gas cost and park stay for a week............about $460..........plus or minus a few........
If i drive the car and do a motel [ute casino $39 to $59 ...........for a week.......$450......+or-..............
It's just not worth the extra problems of taking the MH and towing the car for 6 or 7 days......
We have traveled quite a bit, across the U.S., but have always gotten homesick after about 7 days and headed for home........[not a bit of gypsie blood in either of us ;D]........the reason could be, that we were born and raised here......AND....the middle of Colorado is a pretty darn nice place to be...
Sooooo......i guess our best use of the old bounder is going to be take it to a location in Colorado and leave it for a month or two and travel back and forth and stay for a few days a t a time........then move it from to another area for a while and then back home for the winter...........
Wendy, if ya read this...........I'll try to let you know when we come to cortez, I would like to meet you guys and have a cup..........
Maybe we don't get much use out of our rv, but we enjoy it, ........and use it the way we thought we would ...........
