[QUOTE="wjschmaltz, post: 339966, member: 6150"] I filled up my duramax about 10 days ago for $3.80 and parked it. Diesel was $4.70 at the same pump when I drove by yesterday morning and will likely be well over $5 by the end of the week. Gonna be eating some expensive salmon this year after we add up fuel. We were going to buy a camper this spring but with fuel prices we figured we would only make a few trips with it. So instead of going camping every weekend we're choosing 3 weekends and going 5-6 days. Renting a camper that's a good size for our family on RV Share is about $100 a day and going down as more people post up their rigs realizing they won't be able to afford camping every weekend. After storage, small shit that always breaks, upgrades, furnishing, insurance, time cleaning after an exhausting weekend, miscellaneous headaches, etc. we figured renting is by far a better option than buying for what we need. Every time I add up the cost of owning stuff (camper, ocean boat, ATV, airplane) it almost always pencils out better for me to rent or pay a transporter or guide to drop me off. Everyone's situation is different. [/QUOTE]
