You said you need to make $600 per 1000 miles - is that gross or net - i.e. before or after taxes? Are you going to be considered an employee or self-employed - i.e. do you have to pay both halves of the social security?
When I plan our travels, I use 50 cents a mile which is $4.00 per gallon at 8 miles to the gallon. You would likely get more miles to the gallon because the motorhome would be basically empty.
Are you allowed to sleep in the motorhome? Who pays for hotels if not? Do you have to pay for your trip back? Can you tow a car behind for the return trip?
