I think it's perfectly normal to get cold feet when jumping into a major purchase of ANY kind.
We were tent campers until our early 50's when we decided a hot shower and a warm bed looked much more inviting than our air mattress in a cold tent.
We started with a 24ft travel trailer and loved it immediately. We made great memories with that little trailer and like most who fall for RVing, we wanted more room and moved up to a large 5th wheel. We've had it 11 years and enjoyed it on vacations and weekends. We love always being in our own space and the ability to sleep in our own bed, cook our own meals (when we want to) and still travel and see the country.
Now we are almost ready to travel fulltime and really see the country.
The only way you are going to know if you like it is if you try it.
You could rent a motorhome for a week and go out and see if you enjoy the adventure...I will be guessing that you will but it isn't everyones cup of tea.
Good Luck...don't overthink it and just have fun.
