I'm with Peer on this. You can choose to do your own work, or you can pay a lot of money for someone else to do it. I don't care if it is changing oil, changing a transmission, or redoing the inside of your coach. Personally I do my light maintenance and my house systems, but I farm out any real mechanical work. Throttle cable pops off the carb while on the interstate? That I can figure out and fix. Brake pads need replacing? Well, I've actually never done it. I'd pay my old mechanic to do it one Saturday and show me how. But when the front bearings needed doing? I'm happy to pay my guy that actually knows how to do something that I'll probably never need to do again (Lenzi's drilled and tapped).
You can be without mechanical knowledge and own and enjoy a GMC. You just have to pay a lot more to keep it running. That's a choice, and I wouldn't knock that anyone that makes that choice.
