Is RV living for me?

Newly retired senior checking out idea of full time RV living as I have wanted to do this for many yrs but got scared off by possible high cost of living that way.
I'm looking into renting a motorhome class C about 24-26ft for 2 mos to experience RV living (I've often camped in a tent). I would be heading down the east coast of US Apr-May.
Your forum is great for info and I love reading your stories!
Living in NS, sales taxes are very high and a friend suggested it would be less expensive to rent one in US eg Maine(although $can is only about US$oo.92 right now.)
Does anyone have suggestions about how to go about this the best way and what would be a good model to rent? If I like it, I would look into buying one.
Thanks, Maria
ps this is my first experience with a forum!

There is excellent information on the fulltime lifestyle on Escapees, Technomania, and NuRvers web sites (and many others). And you will find people live in all kinds of RV's big or small. Many work part time to make some extra money.

You have two issues. The first is whether you are really a candidate for full time living in an RV; and the second depends on the first that if you think you are a candidate then what type of RV to fulltime in. Many RV's are made purely for occasional recreational usage. And others are made for full time usage.
