  • never having to sleep under another hotel "duvet" that has more "biologicals" than CSI could process in a week.
  • being able to avoid the same gawdawful "breakfast buffet" that every hotel serves.
  • knowing how the coffee maker works without having to think about it.
  • having a hospitality bar that doesn't charge you $9 for a bag of peanuts.
  • being able to have tea that is plain old Lipton's or Tetley's - not some gawdawful herbal stuff that tastes like hay (Chamomile!)
  • sleeping in your own bed every night and taking a nap during the day if you can find a big parking lot or a rest stop.
P.
I have to add:
Being able to travel with my dogs without paying extra fees to bring them along.
Camping in some very remote spots in relative comfort.
Weekends at the relatives without staying in their house on the inflatable matress.
My AS does not look like every other camper in the park.

BTW - this last item is not always a good thing. I bought my AS from a guy that hated being noticed in the camp ground. He didn't like people dropping by to look at the camper. He found this aspect of AS ownership a burden. They do get attention.
