Default New flooring for camper

I'm looking for advise on new flooring for my camper. I was thinking floating vinyl plank but I'm unsure that is the proper flooring to use? Its a 32 foot with two slides so not sure that floating will would be good to use with the slides going in and out all the time.

Call any RV center and ask their service people what they think. You'll get a much more appropriate response from someone who (hopefully) will know more about it than those of us that just own them.

Heck, call several and compare what they say.

The only issue I could see is the thickness of the planking could be a problem for the slides.

If it's what I am thinking, it is also quite heavy.

That said, I put it in my trailer.

Some or most of our commercial installs are a full glue down.
I’d go that route in camper, not much elevation change w thickness and no loose edges to lift.
Next I guess is an engineered product but any moisture over time will cause floor to fail.
Armstrong is a pretty good product for lvp.
