RE: How do you decide how much to spend on an RV
You and your wife are in the go go go years, So I think you should go see and do. Older you get harder it gets.
If I were in your shoes the question, I would be asking myself, is how much better will buying the higher end rig make my camping life and by extension make my life better. Would I go more, and for longer? Would it be much easier to use? Those are reasons to go for it.
On the other hand, if it would not really improve our camping and life much, I felt like it would preclude us from doing other stuff like flying somewhere, or not doing other things we enjoy. And or having to save hard for two or three years doing only camping. then it would not be worth it to me.
Those are the sort of guidelines I would use to make a choice

RE: Maybe when I get a little older
almost 68, still working part time in my profession, no plans to retire.
For some retirement is best thing they ever did for others not so much.
Retirement is an industry, 99% of the talk is about money, with 1% on what it is you are going to do.
I live by "enough money to sleep well. enough purpose in life to need to get up"
That old easy chair has a powerful suction.
But whatever works for someone is great by me, but for me alone I think retiring
would be a poor choice for myself

RE: Rv loan rates!
Way too much talk about money and way too little talk about life.
First, I do not want to pay interest. I avoid it if at all possible. But I value life more than money.
Better to pay a little interest, than wait in my opinion. Kids grow up we get old. I am a fan of do it while you can.

RE: Odd Experience While Camping - Lesson Learned
I am 100% behind your decision to want family time alone without a stranger.
I suspect what you ran into was an extremely lonely old man. May have just lost his wife kids may live far away. He may have been well aware he was being pushy, but his loneliness overcame that.
Or he could have been a crazy axe murderer, who knows but I suspect the former.
30 years ago, used to dread mowing the lawn, as the widowed old guy next door, would always want to come out and chat. Then I got old and widowed now I understand

RE: What are these
Google lists an old minuteman missile base outside of Sidney as you may know the command and control was some distance from the actual silos, Bunkers could be radar installation or HQ

RE: Medicare For Full Timers
OP you might consider looking at "plan G" high deductible, much cheaper than plan G about a third. I have it, no complaints. I also tend to self-insure like you, so was good choice for me
