Well, I have been looking around for an RV that will be part live in, and a small part, traveling home for our "vacationteer" work... see, fusing Volunteer work for site constructions as well as vacationing...
For now, I have only one home in my name that I'm renting out. I'm debating on purchasing another home, which will likely be the case and use it as home base. To take it nice and slow... Instead of renting cheaply, but, still, throwing away money, I have been in and looked at some new and used 5th wheels and TT. I'm not planning on traveling with it for a few months, at least, and wanted to give it a go in a RV park for that time frame. Have it towed to my chosen park and sit in it for awhile. My wife and I are on the same page with this step. My Golden doesn't really care either way, as long as she has a place to take her LOOONG naps!
By the way, I'm in Utah County and have been looking at RV parks around here.
I ask where else I can go to check out specifics on particular models that I like, such as this one, though, I'm more into getting a four seasons rig, than really, getting a particular Brand name:

Basically, a 5th wheel, 32+ feet, or a TT in the 30+ feet in size will seem to be sufficient for our needs now and when we travel. For traveling, it will be nationwide (US for those international folks), I'm looking at staying still for a few months to 6 and then driving back to home base... or if no home base exists... our next "vacationteer" will be our destination for a few months again... and so on.
I work and have a salary with flexible times to work on weekdays. So, I have been looking at 'fast' Internet options.
No Tow Vehicle purchase for now, until I decide on the unit, then, get a vehicle, very likely, used, that can handle the load. So, this, the Tow vehicle will be a few months from now. The Unit,well, within the next 2 weeks!
As to a personal vehicle, we have a VW Passat that will be driven to those 'sites' as well, so, that will be our around town vehicle.
Oh, and also, recommendations for financing, as I would like to write some of these purchases off!
Good times and thanks for sharing your vast RV experience to us newcomers.
