While some full time in RVs like a Cougar, I do not recommend it. A true full time trailer will be built heavier, better insulated and have higher quality furniture.
We started full timing in a 36' Carriage Cameo and moved up to a 40' HitchHiker Champagne to get n=more storage. The penalty of a true full time trailer is the weight and the requirement for a suitable truck.

Ken, While I do appreciate the differences between a true fulltime RV and our Cougar, as of right now, our FT lifestyle will only last a short while (approx 3 yrs). Our current plan is to try it out and see if we like it...if in 3 yrs we don't, then we will have the option of settling down and building another sticks & bricks. On the other hand, if we've really taken a liking to FT we still have the option to buy up or keep going as we are if it looks feasible. While we are in a hurry to get this adventure started, we want to take our time through this experience to evaluate and really see if it is something we really want to keep going with.
