Even though I have a low income, I do have a six figure nest egg. I should have phrased my OP better. I have some investments that may pay off, or not. Great feedback, thanks. I can see why people say the RV community is a great thing and a good way to meet more people than I do living in a sticks and bricks. The small space in a camper is concerning for sure, but there are trade offs. I don't know how all of you made the decision to go for it.

Good point about the size. I like the ability to park it anywhere as I may spend time in the City.

Everyone I've mentioned going full time in a truck camper thinks I'm nuts! Fear of the unknown does creep into my head in the middle of the night. It might be tough to leave the lifestyle with my low income if I should change my mind.

How many here have sold the sticks and bricks and gone full time at 65 years or older? Thanks

Thanks for the feedback, still learning, but Verizon sounds pretty good. “Mobile internet resource center” on you tube has good info.

Hi, Is anyone full timing in a Thor Axis? Curious about your experience with the Unit. Thanks.

Thanks for the replies, Verizon in the west sounds good

For someone who needs the income from trading several times a day, losing a phone or internet connection could cause an expensive event. Probably not a good idea. Thanks

Anyone out there day/swing trading the stock market full time from your RV? Curious about internet service reliability.

Wow, thanks everyone, appreciate the feedback. New neighbor who moved in above me,,,, I gotta get out of this condo:)

I wonder about basic comforts such as heating and cooling, the noise that heating and cooling produce, food prep effort, claustrafobia, and security. I recently downsized from a nice home to a small condo at age 64, single and dislike the condo due to all the noise and close neighbors, even though its on a golf course, view ,nice pools but drives me nuts with all the noise.. I see and have met people who have lived here for 15 years and I don't want to live here anymore.......jump or slowly expire? I see adventure, new experiences, meeting new humans in the jump.

Can't imagine not having found this forum for all the information, thanks.

RayIN, What "house" items did the ESW cover that you had work done on? Thanks for the info!

Smitty, I agree that it would be a great learning experience for me to adopt an SKP member and their expenses for the upcoming year. Could you remind me again of the month and year you posed in the Playboy magazine again so I can look you up? I probably have you mixed up with someone else. Thanks!

Biker56, It does add up doesn't it. What rig do you own?

Great feedback!! These forums are invaluable, thanks!

Thanks for the feedback, that helps. Would you agree generally speaking a diesel may be more expensive for routine maintenance and potential repairs than a gas RV? What is the downside of getting an older Diesel say 10-15 years old with 50k-70k miles on it if it has been properly maintained? Tough to finance, worn out interior, etc, but aren't the engines, trannies etc, built for 200,000 miles and more? I could see getting one and spending 5--7k on interior improvements. Thanks

Hi All, I'm curious about what the annual maintenance costs of a diesel pusher have been for some of you owners. I know it varies a lot, but Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks

Great info, and tells me I could make things work. I'm single 61 and $33,000 is my budget per year I could make this work, that is, if I can make the decision to do it!
