You have too many variables in your life. DH and I are both retired AF, so we have some experience in this area.
You haven't enlisted yet and you're spending the money. First you have to make it through basic training and then tech school. How long is tech school...depends on your AFSC. Assignments to couples are not guaranteed.
I hate to sound discouraging, but you should have other priorities that need to be addressed. You can't even agree that you need a new car. It takes years to adjust to military life. It's a whole different world. Divorce is a high possibility. Get used to the mantra "service before self".
An RV is a big commitment. What will you do with if you get deployed? It's a probability. I guarantee you cannot live full time in an RV in a northern tier base. You cannot full time in a fam camp. You are limited in space. Two people with 12-15 uniforms that need to stay pristine...voila closet is full. Too bad no room for civilian clothes.
Off my soap box.
