Full Time RV Living–Tips for Buying an RV–Especially a Used RV

There are so many variables in your choice of what type of RV is best for your situation,

that I’m always somewhat amazed how many times we are asked that exact question. . .

We have RV friends who live in their standard bumper pull rig very comfortably,

others have very high end fifth wheels, with huge customized RV Haulers,

others live and travel all over the country in their twenty year old motor home,

and still others have upscale, upper class motorhomes with all the bells and whistles. . .

Each of these are completely and totally thrilled with what they are in. . .

so, as you can see, it’s completely a matter of what is going to work for you. . .

Here’s a great article for those just beginning to search. . .

especially if you are thinking of buying a used unit. . .check it out!

Full Time RV Living–Updating VS Upgrading–We’ve finally come to a Decision!

Years ago, when Dave and I decided to live full time in our fifth wheel, we discussed that by the time we were in our sixties, we wanted to be in a motorhome.  That seemed a long ways away back then. . .but now, eight years later. . .those days are just around the corner.  . .and we’ve been having big discussions about it.

We agree on the premise that a motorhome will be much more comfortable to travel in, while the fifth wheel is great living quarters. . .and therein lies the rub. . .although we do travel some. . . we still also work some. . .so we often find ourselves staying in one place for several weeks at a time.

 

We’ve gone back and forth, back and forth in our discussions. . .let’s go ahead and get the motorhome. . .no, let’s just wait a couple more years. . .and FINALLY. . .this past weekend, I think we’ve come to a firm decision. . .to just do some updating in the fifth wheel.  . .and hold out on purchasing the motor home for a couple more years.

 

I’m plain old worn out from all the discussion. . .and I was just wondering. . .are we the only ones who have these conversations going on?

 

How do you guys come to a concensus on major decisions?

 

Being by nature, a planner, organizer, analyzer. . .I like things lined out in a neat little order, it’s taken a bit of work to learn to go with the flow. . .

 

Would love to hear your stories on the subject!
