Thanks every one for your replies. I understand there is no such thing as one size fits all. I am just trying to get a feel from those who have done this before if there is never enough space, more is always better, or we have no need for so much space. I understand that everyones experience is different. Trying to find a starting place. We have a 5yr plan. We will look for about 3yrs buy during the fourth year(unless something comes along that is such a fantastic deal), get to know the rv for that year then take off in year 5. That is the plan. Thanks. Please continue to post from your experiences.
