We are willing to spend the money, there is no way around that to go with a newer model, that's not the issue, the main issue is that in my mind we will be spending a LOT of money (like you all guys did at some point or another) and I won't get the same benefits in return. Granted, newer engine, new toys but also new things that can break and I'm pretty sure not matter what year model we get there will be something I will want to modify to meet my taste/needs.

We realized how important were the washer and drier on our last trip (the first one that took more than a week, almost 4 weeks). We still have a Dometic fridge (gas,12v/110v) but we realized that is not great for long trips if you have it full, might need some service but a couple of times the freezer just wasn't strong enough.

If you ask my wife she will have left me already and started full timing! but I'm still active and even when I can work from anywhere on this last trip I realized that a satellite connection will be a must, for some locations, and even using those connections the speeds that you can get are not good enough for remote working (or so it seems). 

On the cooking note we were surprised on how we were able to do pretty much anything we wanted in there! The fact that we have gas is a blessing for us, we love cooking with gas that much that when we don't have it we go outside, pull the grill from the bay and cook on the grill.
