Have you seen the movie RV? Accurate.

For a family day-cataion we went to the Utah RV show.  The children loved the RVs with kids bunks and lofts.  We spent our time shopping the residential living RVs.  We wanted to price shop so we know what we should plan for in the future.  We imagine it takes less stress off the children when they do not have to accommodate grandparents visiting.

Runner-up: Keystone Montana (Series)
- Some fun features, great resale value, but not as cost effective for some of the same features.  Still, they are the Lexus/Acura of the market if Thor is the BMW/Jaguar.
