I'd suggest taking out the "I" in picking out the right RV and make it a "We."
Discuss your budget. Look at as many floorplans online with the types of RV you can afford, consider the options available and what your interests are. Get your list as long as it needs to be to satisfy everyone and find the dealers that carry them and make a series of weekend trips to actually try them on. Sit in chairs, including the bathroom throne, does the shower fit, are the beds comfortable, eating meals (dinette or free standing), viewing the TV, storage, what toys will you be taking. Just keep in mind that RV's tend to get smaller the longer you stay in them. Will you be doing weekend trips only, summer long trips, spring break trips, Christmas break trips or are you looking at seasonal visits only? Where will you be storing it? Add that cost in as well.
