Year round in a class C?

Hi Tarzan31,

I full time in Saskatchewan in a 29' Class C. If you are attempting to boondock at temperatures below -20 c (-4 f) then a decent power source is pretty much required. I have used my rv at -37 c (-34 f).

DO NOT USE AN UNVENTED COMBUSTION HEATER.

There is a great thread on winter camping and what is needed here:

I am considering living in an RV for a plethora of reasons. A class C because it is maneuverable enough to drive along with enough space to be comfortable.
I can live in small spaces, and I am mechanically inclined. I have ways of making hot water and cooking without electricity or propane, solar panels can be budgeted for supplemental electricity if need be.
Has anyone lived year round in a Class C?
Has anyone lived in a cold climate doing so?
The heat tape for the water and sewage tanks and lines isn't expensive, and I would re plumb the water lines with PVC and save the stock lines for summer time.
My biggest doubt is finding a winter spot to rent in Central MA. I commute to Boston regularly so I can't be farther than Worcester, MA if I want to remain sane.
I will be able to install a wood stove in the RV with proper ventilation, fire boards, etc so there would be no health risks.

For me this is a temporary (year or 3) living situation and I think I would quite enjoy it versus trying to survive it.

Thanks for any insight!
