About to go full-time! A bit nervous
It didn't initially begin with us planning to go full time. We initially bought the toy hauler to take the rzr and motorcycles out on week long trips, however we have always loves traveling and we talked about it several times... kinda been going back and forth and finally we are going to just go for it.
I would have probably bought a different trailer initially if I had known we might full-time in it, but luckily I did order the TT with every option, plus replaced all the beds with memory foam, and upgraded the TV on the bedroom wall.
I also put 480W of solar on the roof with a 1500W pure sine wave gopower inverter, since we love to boon dock. & ordered the 166 gallon fresh water tank, tankless water heater, generator etc.
We are a bit nervous and a part worries that we won't like it, however I think that has been normal for everyone prior to going full-time. We love the outdoors, camping, and meeting others so I can't wait to get started so I know what it will be like...
Did any of you ever regret full-timing? Anything you would have done any differently?
We are planning on exploring the western US, starting in Salt Lake, and just playing it by ear for the first 6 months to a year.
We hope to meet some of you soon! If you ever see us around, come say hello!

Not excited about leaving the rzr at home while full-timing, but wifey doesn't want to pull it in and out every-time we stop... I don't blame her
