I would be hesitant to do it in your situation. From reading your posts, it sounds like you are trying to convince yourself that you will like the lifestyle to justify the cost savings measures. As opposed to you love the lifestyle and any cost savings are gravy.
That suggests to me that you will become very frustrated every time you come across one of the lifestyles hassles.
If you proceed anyway: You are an accountant.
Take your household budget and make a version for full timing and see what you have to give up and how much it will save you. Balance the cost savings vs the hassles and make a choice.
Since your primary driver appears to be financial, you should be able to keep the rig under $20k and have a modest but usable rig (you don't need a $500k diesel pusher to full time. They are nice but you don't need it and it won't help your situaiton.)
