Planning Ahead....

Hello from Florida. Wife and I do tent camping at the moment, but are investigating making the jump to the RV world when retirement finally rolls around. That's a few years down the road, so for the moment we are learning as much as possible - and finding that the options are almost limitless. Probably won't post much right now, but scouring the boards for as much info as possible.
Thanks for sharing - thanks for being welcoming. :-)

Welcome, your first decision will be 5th Wheel, Travel Trailer or motorhome.

pros/cons
if you go with 5th wheel or travel trailer you will need a truck
if you go with a motorhome, you will want a car to pull

we went with a motorhome for a few reasons, we move around often, don't stay at one place very long and MH appears to take less time to set up. we did not own a truck so would have had to purchase one.
