Not only RVers buy RVs
"Towing a 40' trailer is just not for me ... but intend to use it as a guest house"

RVs are for RVers?  Not necessarily only RVers; RoTi had the following posting from Ken Copeland from Ohio:

"We recently went to an RV show and purchased a 40 foot fifth wheel.  We have no intention of RVing, but intend to use it as a guest house on our property. 

I couldn't get into the RVing lifestyle, towing a 40' trailer is just not for me; it just sounds much too scary.  I'd need to buy a truck big enough to pull it and what about the fuel costs moving it around - I've heard you only get about 6 mpg?  Today's fifth wheels with their slides opened up however, are very roomy, very luxurious, great quality and quite spacious. Easier (and maybe cheaper and nicer) than buying a manufactured home and furnishing it.  And they have A/C and heating, leveling systems and all of the systems and appliances - perfect for a guest house."

More and more we find this - RVs are not necessarily only for RVers ...

John A :   I think demand for RVs will continue to grow during the next decade. I think it's true that there'll be a bigger proportion of the population who want this kind of lifestyle and have the money to pay for it. And some people who don't even want the RV lifestyle may still buy into it to use a trailer as a guest house on their property. It really is a dynamic niche market and I think companies who've become involved will do well.
