How much will a big fifth wheel limit us?
I don't currently have an RV but have borrowed my in-laws Class A before...so though I am not in the owners club I am not a total newbie either. My wife and I are around 40 and are self employed. ...

Good feedback so far. We had a 37' 5th wheel for the first 4 years of our ft life and would easily have answered like many have already "you can find forest and boondock sites". Now that we have a 44' 3 axle fiver that notion is humorous. Over about 40' the dynamics change completely. With my other rig there were a number of times were I got into an uh-oh position but was able to 3 point out of it; this bigger rig no way. I can't even fit down my fathers col-de-sac with the new rig. Point being going big seriously limits choice.
If you will be working from the road the boonies is not an option. Satellite internet has terrible latency issues. We are grandfathered with Verizon 3G and 4G unlimited plans but from what I read those are no longer an option. Figure out how much data you use monthly and then shop plans.
You are starting out right by planning ahead. Took us a year of concerted effort to get out on the road (I was 30 and wife was 25) that was 5 years ago now and we have no plans to stop.
