Next year will mark ten years since I bought my 2015 Winnebago Minnie Winnie 22R.
That's when I may face the notorious "ten-year rule" of some RV parks. I'm not concerned about it as my motorhome is in good shape and it is kept in a garage to protect it from the elements.
This is the topic of an article by MSN.

RV owners risk having their summer vacation ruined this year due to a rule that prevents RVs over 10 years old from parking in certain US parks.
Travelers who have had their vehicles for a while might want to do their research before they head out on a family adventure, as they may be denied a reservation.
Oftentimes safety issues are cited as the reason for the rule. Older vehicles can have a higher potential to develop problems such as leaks and electrical issues.
Some park managers are also trying to avoid their sites looking run down due to a build-up of older RVs, meaning the issue of aesthetics also comes into play.
