We - and a number of other full-timers we know - live and travel full-time in a fifth wheel (towed by a large truck, of course) and the wife follows along on travel days in a small car (in our case, a Toyota Corolla). It has worked out wonderfully for us. Since actual travel with the rig comprises such a small percentage of our time, the impact of driving the Toyota on travel days is very small we have an economical, small vehicle in which to sight-see, shop, and get into inner cities. Howard and Linda Payne, the owners of RV-Dreams.com, do it the same way. Both Howard and Linda and my wife and I have inflatable kayaks to get out on the water.
