To plan or not to plan?

Am considering full-time RVing. Does one plan out their trip in advance making reservations at all the campgrounds? I'd like to come and go as I please. If I don't like a place I want to leave and move on. Does everything have to be planned out in advance? It seems sketchy to just go and hope for a spot without a reservation. How much planning is involved vs. flying by the seat of one's own pants? I always plan my vacations, but it seems daunting to plan every last detail if one is going to be on the road a year.

It seems to me that once one crosses over from recreational to full time RVing, the whole devil-may-care lifestyle of the occasional jaunt must be set aside.

Recreational RVers always know where they're going back to at the end of a trip...if I were a fulltimer, I'd need to have at least some firm go-to plan at all times just in case my spur-of-the-moment plans go awry.
