As long as you have good health, age is just a number. In my motorcycle touring days we met a couple who were well into their 70s and still riding around the country on their BMW motorcycles (she was riding her own bike).

We have a weekend and a 9 nighter coming up shortly and 2 trips in the books already this year.
I could have written this... 37 & 34 here... our little one is almost 2, and replace the unit with a Salem 27DBK... otherwise, very similar. Mid Bunk will likely be our next move too. We also have 2 dogs, so, traveling without needing to board them or stay in a hotel was a big draw for us.

My inlaws have had every unit out there I think, they've been RV'ing for probably 20 years and helped get us into it.

I'm 45 and my wife is 43. We have 2 kids 15,12. We love it and plan on doing it for a long time. I think it's ability driven more than age. We bought our RV from my in laws. They are both in their early 70's but my FIL has some health issues and he couldn't deal with the set up and tear down involved so he sold out to us.

I’m almost 59, my soulmate DW is 57. Married for 38 years. My parents started camping when I was probably 6 or 7. DW never experienced camping as a child so for our first date in 1981 we went on a camping trip to a provincial park near us in a pup tent. Since then we’ve had pop-ups,TT’s now we have our 5th wheel. As long as our health and finances hold up we will be camping and RVing until the man upstairs has different plans for us.
