So it will be different needs for different trips. But as I said earlier, I'm pretty sure that 1.5 baths, two separate sleeping area's are a must.
Totally do-able.....Here are two examples at different ends of the cost spectrum...

Two separate sleeping area's and 1.5 baths
Tiffin Motorhomes


Three separate sleeping areas, and if you put a porta potty in the garage...1.5 bath...

After REREADING your post, I post these for your info, and hope it suits your taste.
Also consider that you will have to have a toad, dolly, or four down, seperate insurance also.
Hello All,
1) I was wondering what is the average nightly cost for overnight stays?
Most campgrounds I look at are around $40.00 a night. It would be an awfully short trip at that cost.
2) Do I need full hookups? I'm still looking for my RV, either a small Class A or a Class C.
3) What differentiates the need for 30 amp or 50 amp service?
4) Do any Class C's have 2 baths?
I hope to retire in Oct. of 2012, and WILL have my RV by then.
I want to hit the road and see some of this beautiful country of ours.

Just a note...if you ARE looking at one of the bigger motorhomes consider "gently used" rather than new and original price. You can get many of the nicer MHs for significant discounts with very low mileage. Typically they're from folks who bought new and thought they'd use it alot but didn't. So, the MH ends up back at the dealer a few years later, still in excellent condition but for alot less than book cost.
