Hope to retire in May

Hello all,

My wife and I hope to retire in May. We are looking at selling the old 5th wheel (Raptor 3712) and get the Forest River Cedar Creek Forest River 38CK Fifth Wheel. I am hoping to setup a tool slide in the front storage for my wood lathe and scroll saw, well thats the plan anyway. I am doing this to make money along the way. We are looking to buy property in West Virginia area. Get out of CA.

Any advice on the 38CK or retirement in a 5th wheel?

    I have never owned one, just seen them at the shows. Sweet rig. Hope you enjoy!

    If you want to make money, don't quit working just find another job. If you want to retire, don't worry about money just go have fun.

    Congats on the retirement. You might try the workcamp route at campgrounds. A lot of people do it. Your specialty might come in handy. Just a suggestion for you. Best of luck down the road.
