Years ago, we sold the house, I retired and we took off full time in a small RV. We had never stayed in an RV even one night. There were very few issues which we did not anticipate. Except for the cost of the truck and RV, costs were very low. We had solar panels and rarely stayed in an RV park or other expensive camping area. With a senior pass, we averaged $7/night for camping fees. Fuel was expensive when traveling long distances but on an average monthly basis, fuel was about the same as when I commuted to and from work everyday. A $15-20 propane refill lasted over a month. We also needed gas for the generator on rare occasions, about $10/month. Of course, everything is different for those whose idea of RV travel is trying to duplicate living in a house.
