Darius welcome to our world. About 2-1/2 years ago I did the same thing your considering now. First of there's things you'll have to consider like getting your mail, domicile (place you call your home state), insurance, an other stuff like that. One of the first things I did was join the Escapees RV Club. Good place to get information and resources when it comes down to the subject of full-timing. And the most important thing is to set down and make yourself up a budget. That way you'll have some kind of idea of what this lifestyle cost.
Like others have stated gas is going be your biggest expense. And where your home base is going to be located. One thing I did was pick a general location that I really wanted to explore, like the western park of our country. After I joined Escapees I found one there co-op parks out here in Pahrump, Nevada and bought in. This is where my home base is located. when I'm not traveling around the western states. For the last 2 summers I was camp hosting up in Utah at a little city park. Because you can't traveling all the time, and you get to check out the area around you. Which was right in the middle of 5 of our National Parks like Bryce Canyon for one.
I started out in the same Motor Home you now have. I sold it at the end of last year and got a new truck and A 17 foot Casita Trailer that I'll be using to travel in since it's just me, myself and I. Go get out there and enjoy yourself.
