How long have you been on the road
I left home 10/16 and have been on the road ever since been to all 49 states plus Canada and Mexico, currently at the southern tip of Baja Mexico. I have put 138,000 miles on my rig.

- We have been on the road since May 2011. Rented our house out for 4 years, then sold it in 2015. We are at the point we would like to buy property to park on in MI around family in the summer and travel in the south for winter.
- Thanks for all the replies, I'm currently in southern Baja Mexico, heading out next week to Yellowknife Canada but will stop at property I own on Lake Tahoe to get my rig serviced before heading north.
- Retired in 2003 at age 54. Worried if we could do it but it has worked out just fine. My advice go for it as soon as you can. Left Iowa without the house being sold and headed to the Harlingen Texas area. The house did sell that winter and we have not looked back.
We winter in the southwest and travel the west and northwest. I have a personal blog listing our travels where we have found to boondock which is our favorite way to go. Much is related to our many winters in Quartzsite, AZ
I also do a national site (see below) showcasing other people traveling fulltime and their stories and journals.
I like to say we are are a big rig looking for a tent experience. - Since 1996, no home base just 1998 HH 38' Champagne and FL60 tow. Both are well maintained, have added 2011 Hyundai Sante FE.
- Anybody been to every National Park and National Monument in the Lower 48?
- 4/19/2010 Looking forward to the next adventure, Montana this summer.
- Since 12/08/2000...still enjoying it.

We have been living full time in an RV since 1997. We hit the road in early 2000 and still work and travel full time! Lovin' it!
Homeless since 1997!- 13 years full-time for me
- Hit the road FT in April of 2007
SLOWLY meandered 12 times across the USA border to border/coast to coast using secondary/back roads.
Staying week/2 weeks at a time then mosey on down the road 200-250 miles
Spent time in 42/48 states..drove thru all 48 & visited DC
Life thru a curve and after 7 wonderful/awesome yrs we stopped FTng.
That was our plan to begin with----to FT and travel until something changed.
We're thankful we got those 7 yrs
SLOW......not on vacation ---time/distance have no relevancy. It's a lifestyle
