Quite a few people have replied that are not full timers and not doing it with a family. I know of quite a few very happy full timing families. Find the blogs of a few full timing families and get in touch with them. They will tell you the ups and downs of the life.
Living in an RV is not easier than living in a s&b. There is still a lot of work and maintenance that comes with it - you can't escape that. But, right now, I would not trade my RV and my life for any s&b anywhere. I am a wanderer by nature and to be tied down again (I did that for 20 long, painful years) would be overwhelmingly depressing.
The first thing you need to do is make sure the rest of your family is up for it. Not everyone is cut out for this lifestyle. DH took some convincing (six months on the road) before he agreed - this is way better than being tied to a house.
X2. Working on year # 4 for me calling my Motorhome, "Home" I am done with sticks and bricks. I can relate to the 20 long and painful years.
