One thing the OP might want to consider is if getting a truck to pull a fifth wheel or travel trailer (and even a TC) and then use it for his driving vehicle, then how much driving will he be doing with out the campers?
The problem IMHO is reselling the MH and recouping costs. I know I can recoup a good portion of the costs of a 3/4 truck or an SUV, but not so with a MotorHome. I have my doubts on re-couping costs on any RV, which is why I have factored in the potential of only getting back 10% of what I pay for the RV.
Also, I am inexperienced but from what I have seen thus far, you just cannot find nice MotorHomes at good prices, maybe a CLASS C, maybe...
In my calculation, I will get at least 70% back for the truck and 10% back for the RV (if something goes wrong with it), otherwise if I am lucky I expect at least 50% back for the TT or 5th, and 70% back for the truck.
As far as other costs, remember I am leaving behind $2,000 in monthly expenses as a start and I still have a regular income. So I have some wiggle room here for sure.
