Fifth year full timing...first year we rarely spent more than four days at a park. Last year our average stay was 7 as many parks offer buy 6 get 7. Depends on where you are and what there is to see and do in the area. We like to spend two weeks in the north part of the State, two in the south and two in the middle. We rarely travel more than 3 hours between campgrounds and do not use the Interstates.
how much does it cost most of you per month to full time?
We average about $3-4k/ month which includes food/fuel/lodging. We don't eat out much and choose our CGs wisely.
how do you go about choosing where you stay?
We belong to GS, Passport America, Thousand Trails and RPI. Selecting a campground is a personal choice. We don't do too much boondocking and have never stayed at a WalMart. We prefer full hookups including sewer. YMMV....
i know this may be a touchy subject and i'm really only asking for ballpark figures. many thanks to all who feel comfortable answering.
Good answer, but could I ask what your yearly costs are? Such as, including any insurance and maintenance to the 3 - 4k? I've read your blog and have enjoyed it, but others show annual budgets, would you be willing to share this? DW and I are going FT in 2yrs and we're working hard at reviewing a number of others budgets to get a feel for what our cost could be on the road.
