Although we don't run the numbers like you do RAF, we try not to allow our RV to go unused for long periods of time. We've averaged 60 nights per year in it over the past four years and plan to continue at that same rate.
However, I don't believe RVing is necessarily cost-effective compared to other means of travel/vacationing. Certainly not buying new (we paid 40% less than the cost of a new unit) and a high rate of utilization can make a RV a relative bargain, but I suspect your numbers are an exception to the typical RV experience. Far too many people do not follow through with their plans and allow them to sit unused - and that is expensive.
