Just read one of my newsletters/blogs. Go to www.rvlifestyleexperts.com. There was a story about a gentlemen who has to travel to survey property. He has a truck camper and pickup. His wife traveled to be his "assistant" and while they traveled they were able to stop and do a little sightseeing. After all, no matter what you drive, you need to take a break.
The idea of buying land and putting in the water, sewer, electric to park a 5th wheel with covers on the bottom or backed into a large building to protect truck and trailer to live makes sense. My sister did that once for her son for a couple of years in Texas. It wasn't an open field, 1 acre site, but in a RV camp with permanent sites of about 1/4 to 1/2 acre on a lake. Because she "improved it" with the utilities, when she sold it several years later, she made a profit.
If you did this while you live in Flagstaff, then investigate work kamping (which is also listed in the RV Lifestyle Experts blog - it will show RV there yet), then you are taking care of now and planning for the future. It will also give you a chance to see if your skills can be utilized work kamping.
Good luck. No question is a dumb question. You are just gathering information to make a better decision.
