If your main reason for an RV is to avoid getting motels and finding food you will find that a RV comes with more issues to solve than finding food and motels.
1) Any RV does not go near as far in a day as a SUV and takes twice the fuel to do it. Your two week trip would likely take three in an RV and cost twice as much.
2) You still need to find a place to stay each night anyway.
3) RV's other than a B or small C, require a lot more maintenance than a SUV and the maintenance is more likely to be something you will not be able to do yourself in the driveway.
4) Get a good smart phone and there are apps for finding accommodations and food is almost always next door.
