We had some concerns and questions about going full-time RVing and I am going to list them out. I’ll blog about each of these as we figure out the answers to the questions.
- Original concerns:
- Could we be happy in a much smaller space? This won’t be camping, this will be our home. This is what we did to try out a smaller space: Can We live in 400 Square Fee?
- Will the dogs adjust? They will have their own stuff, but they are use to being able to go outside when they want through their dog door.
- What will we do with the stuff we want to keep, but it won’t make sense to take? Long Term Storage Plans
- How long will full-time RVing be fun?
- How much will it cost year to year?
- How will we get our medication while traveling?
- How will we get mail?
- How will we vote?
- What will we do with our cars?
- Where will we park our RV until we are ready to go?
- What upgrades should we do?
- What type of RV should we buy? See Finding the RV
- What RV brand should we buy? See Finding the RV
- What RV layout should we buy? See Finding the RV
- Should we start small? See Finding the RV
- Are there any classes we can take to learn how to handle the RV? Yes.
- What kitchen tools and appliances can I take and what will I use?
- Should we move residence from Colorado?
- After looking at RVs and narrowing our choices down, here are some additional questions:
- What will it be like towing a large RV aka big rig?
- When should we buy the RV and truck? Finding the Truck
- Should we get a new RV or a used one?
- Can we find a good used truck or will we have to buy a new one? Finding the Truck
- What size of truck do we need? Finding the Truck
- What brand of truck should we get? Finding the Truck
- How often do we think we would use the outdoor kitchen, if the RV has one?
- Should we take a grill, and if so, what type of grill should we take?
- If we order an RV, can we leave out the stuff that we don’t want?
Links will be added to this page as we figure out the answers to these questions.
