Have you thoroughly looked into the issues of wintering in an RV in a cold location? Rvs are normally designed for warm weather. You will need to heat your water lines and tanks, and propane to keep yourselves warm will be expensive.
This has been discussed EXTENSIVELY in another recent thread.....and the conclusion is: It's a BAD idea, especially if you have to finance the deal. An RV generally depreciates faster than a car/truck and you will end up upside-down in the loan(s) very quickly.
And the above problem is going to be worse than you can imagine.
The furnace/heater in an RV is not designed to deal with REAL winter weather.
do you have a link, keywords i can find that thread by?
Renting in these areas will cost about $54,000+ utilities. With depreciation we'll still have a camper to show for it when we leave. I'm interested to read the opinions of others though.
I'm currently reading up on winterization.
