Greetings, all!
We are a couple near retirement age. ( 60 for me n 61 for my spouse ).we live in New York City all our life, but we always wanted to go into full timer rv lifestyle when we retire, but we are sad to say that due to a sudden downward spiral in our family situation, we will be forced to go into a rv lifestyle because we will be evicted by our landlord.
Typically people who get evicted will lose their homes, and belongings, accompanied by uncertainty and anxiety to say the least, but because of our prior interest in rv lifestyle, we found it not as stressful , or unsure as we are prepaing to live onboard a vehicle on the streets of New York.
Since we are short in funds now, we are shopping around for a class b rv thats in the $5000 - 7000 price range. I have seen a few in RV trader, n prepare to look into them, the other alternative is buy one of those used tradesman van with steel drawers n shelves already installed, just throw in a mattress and porta potti, add an inverter and we can call it home until we can save up to look$20, 000 or so to afford a class A.
I will be reading much here, try to learn as much and as fast as I can, in order to make this transition as smooth as possible. I will appreciate all the advices from forum members in terms of living this lifestyle, dealing with technical matters, or even moral support.
Have a great day n glad to be here.
Vince the modern hobo.
