Hello! My husband and I are interested in getting into RVing. However we have both never owned one, been in one really, or even camped without someone else who knows what they are doing.
We have 4 kids from 12 to 3 years old. We love traveling and have done a lot on the east coast (where we live/have family). We currently own a Honda Odyssey, ans it’s feeling cramped on our road trips. From my minimal research, I’m guessing we wouldn’t be able to tow something big enough behind a large vehicle like a suburban or our odyssey.
Additionally, my husband works about 2 hours away in the Maryland/DC area, and we are wondering if he could potentially park the RV “permanently” there for a place to stay for work, and only move it for trips/college football games. Is this a terrible idea?
Would you arrive at the same conclusion that we’d likely need a drivable RV? What type would you recommend? Our budget would be 50k max, I’d guess. I’m thinking thr best situation for us would be something that has 4 bunks, rather than tearing down the table etc each night for the kids . Does something like this exist?
what other questions do I need to ask myself?
finally, I homeschool our children… I’m wondering if I could drive it by myself and do hookups etc or do I need more physical strength to do the hook ups specifically!
thanks for reading all this!!
