Clueless where to start

Hi Sue and Welcome. I agree with the others that before buying you should try out the lifestyle for a bit first, to make sure you are comfortable with all aspects of RVing. You will need to learn to park your RV, often times backing into a campsite. You will need to learn the "messy" side of your RV, that is dumping your gray and black tanks every so often depending on use and the size of your tanks. You will need to learn how to level your RV. So, I suggest, as did others, that a rental unit is a good way to learn and also try before you buy. When and if you are ready to look at various RV types and floor plans, consider going to the RV show in Hershey, PA mid-September. It's not that far from Mass. They bill themselves as the largest RV show in the country, and having gone there several times ourselves before buying, I can attest that virtually all types of RVs are on display there. You will need several days to see it all. Also, consider spending time on this forum reading and learning RV specific jargon and terms so that when you do go to a show or dealer, they know that you know what you are talking about. Best wishes for success.
