Will you have hookups during the winter season? If not, that opens up a whole 'nother can of worms. Battery drain!!! You will need a good generator to recharge the batteries or solar power. If you have electric that makes winter living a little easier. You will need access to propane - either move the coach to a fill station or add an "extend a stay" and use 100 lb aux tanks that the lp service truck comes to you. You will need to find a way to keep the tanks and plumbing from freezing. Some rv's have heated wet bays (not sure about the models your looking at). Otherwise some folks use a work style trouble light in the wet bay, and keep the interior cabinet doors open so the furnace heat warms the plumbing pipes. There is a lot to consider living in a rv in cold weather. It can be done, but lots of planning and preparation
