Hello all,
My wife and I are ready to escape the hustle and bustle of Northern Virginia. I'd like to float a few ideas by this body of knowledge and get feedback, comfort, opinions, and probably abuse.
It is our intent to move to FL and slowly lapse off into retirement. We plan to do this in stages which will include living in a travel trailer for a little while why we scope out the scene where we want to be in FL and by a house. (My wife is from there, so it is not an uneducated leap.) After we buy a house, we plan to continue camping around (this sentence sounds so naughty).
Here are my thoughts (no plans until I collect the requisite knowledge).
It is likely I will pick up a used travel trailer with a bunk house. Then I will commence to converting the bunkhouse area into an office space so I can continue to work.
From what I have seen so far, the master bedroom will also need work because many of them come with wardrobes but no end tables. I definitely need an end table for my CPAP.
Finally, can someone explain to me why a high percentage of travel trailers have the TV/Entertainment 90-degrees from the seating area?
One of my concerns is that I don't know what is under lipstick and mascara of a camper. I have done all kinds of remodeling and construction on a house but not an RV. I am assuming that "over building" should not be a thing lest it weigh too much.
What do you think?
BTW, not our first time. Back in the day we RVed all the time back in Indiana. We have a 2002 F350 SuperDuty 4x4. I have settled on a travel trailer because many of the 5th wheels are too heavy for the truck, and we would like to keep the truck bed space available.
Thank you.
