    I'm pretty sure with an $8,000 budget, you're probably more into the mid 90's year motor homes, not 2001-2003.
    If you plan on traveling, it's expensive, since you're looking at probably 7-10 MPG.
    If you plan on staying in a park, check out the monthly rates in parks you would be interested in.
    Just some things to consider before you go any further with the full timing in a motor home idea.
    It could very well be cheaper living in an apartment.
