How to RV

[choptop]

Well w/retirement a possibility next year, I am considering some occasional travel, a combination of long weekends, maybe a week here and their and the possibility of a month in the winter. Being not the smartest guy in the room, more of a spender than a saver and a sig other that although younger, their for will have to work about 10 years longer, but will never pull in a much money, I need to watch my pennies.

I will be either going w/ a class b, camper van style or a class c, van front, box back, style, not really interested in pulling a camper or having one in the bed of a pickup truck. It will be the (2) of us and the dog. The class b van would be the easiest to maneuver and use as a second vehicle, the class c would afford more room and storage. Would be towing the 6 of course. still open to all suggestions, any input would be appreciated.

+1. Since I retired from the USMC - the Holiday Inn IS the new definition of camping.

My suggestion based on years of experience on this would be to purchase a class A or C [or if budget restricts you a camper and truck], and pull your bike to your destination of choice. Absolutely and unequivocally forget about a class B. Total waste of money, and too small for more than one person. On your travels you and your wife and or kids will want privacy, room to eat or read inside [without having to set up or pull down the bed to make room for the dining table and seats lol] on bad days and the ability to sustain yourself in areas where you won't have access to good water or shower services. A class B cannot store any significant amount of black water, grey water or potable water. Not to mention the lav itself would be a cassette toilet that would have to be removed every time you want to empty it.

My suggestion would be maybe check again and think about pulling a toy hauler behind a truck as you would have a spare vehicle if you needed to go to the store and also a garage for your baby

My wife and I have been camping for years. Have had every type of equipment you can camp in. We have a class c Winnebago Outlook and tow a flat bed with her trike on it. I ride the f6b. We have the option to off at any time. Wanted an RV that had both a bed and dining table. Stayed away from class B's because of size and space. Really enjoy the Winnebago. Has a large slide and don't have to extend it if we are overnight traveling. Have had a ball traveling and biking together. Headed south for Christmas with RV and bikes. I encourage you to look around. Many very good used rv's out there for sale. We have found Winnebago to have very high quality in things that count. Good luck, enjoy! Great way to see America!
