French motorhomers Michel and Claudine, with over 40 years of experience, have purchased their eighth motorhome — a premium integrated Frankia on a heavy-duty chassis. After one year of use and 17,000 km, they said they chose this model because mid-range motorhomes are not built to last for long-term living, citing issues such as window leaks and broken curtains. The motorhome is under 8 meters long and equipped with two 80-liter LPG tanks, 450 watts of solar panels, and 320 amp-hours of lithium batteries. The owners use it 5–6 months per year, with trips planned to Portugal in September and Morocco in January.
