When we downsized from 37 feet to 25.5 we were planning on not towing and using our motor home to get around. Bear in mind ours is fairly small and only 94" wide so fairly easy to get around in!
That thinking lasted for one trip! Took us three days to find an available rental! Enterprise charged us $67 for 2 days, and I bumped my head on that compact numerous times!!

Only down side we have seen is that we are not able to carry our portable dump tank easily as we did in the pickup. Working on that!! :)
Since you will be full timing, I would think you would appreciate a toad even more!!
