I don't go to as many RV shows as I used to.

If anything happened to my current camper I'd likely just put the insurance money in the bank and hang up RVing. The new rigs I see at the shows are too big, too heavy, too "decorated." The new rigs have the black trim on the outside which is great because it looks nice and hides mildew. But the designers brought too much black/dark INSIDE the rigs. I don't care for any of the new color schemes. (Just MHO)

My rig is fairly simple. Even the floor plan is simple. Two large rooms. And it doesn't weigh much.

And one of the things missing from the latest shows is a good selection of doo-dads and nick-knacks to add/modify/bling and make comfy your existing camper. The big dealers aren't bringing the small stuff like they used to. I used to hesitate to go to a show for fear of spending $100 or more on new stuff I just can't live without. But that stuff doesn't show up there so much any more.

But I might go to the south Atlanta show when it comes around, if my brother wants to go, just to have something to do with him.
