Only had my camper a year this month.  Bought it with 139K miles, now has 149K miles.  The 10K is due to one long trip out West from here (central Oklahoma) to Spokane, Washington and return, via several national parks and other niceties, plus several short trips.  I do not use the camper for daily driving, but only for camping.  This level of usage is likely to continue, assuming that the beast holds up and maintenance expenses go down from the initial heavy needs.  Right now, I think I've got most of the big items that initially made it unreliable taken care of, but I have learned that these things demand constant attention -- that is, it is an expensive beast to keep.  Sort of like owning a horse.  DMc
