Everyone is talking about RGV :)
Only on this Forum. There is an old saying: "Those with money go to Florida, those that think they have money go to Arizona, and the rest of us go to Texas." LOL
The RGV is just a very small part of Texas that no Texans ever go to for a vacation (other than South Padre Island, which may or may not be called part of the RGV depending on the person.)
Camping near the Laguna Madre/Gulf is asking for major rust issues. Not a problem if you're OK with daily washing and oiling of things. Even then you'll have problems.
Texas can be viewed as upper, middle, and lower since it is so large. There is no need to spend the complete winter in only one location. You can move with the season and spend 2-8 weeks in a section then move with the temps to the adjoining section.
If you're over 62 and have a Golden Age pass COE's are very nice in Texas and are $10-15/day W/E.
