Your pain meds are going to be a major obstacle, we have to see our pain dr, every month to get refills. I have a chronic nerve condition and my DW has fibromyalgia and RA. We talked to him about skipping a month when we go to Oregon and MT this summer and he said that he could not do that, and that it is illegal to send pain meds through the mail. So we are having to cram a 2-3 month trip into 30 days so we can see our new great granddaughter in Oregon and still be back home in time to get out pain meds refilled. Most of our trips end up being 1-2 weeks in nearby areas. Not what we had planned when we got our MH, but what we have to live with if we are going to enjoy traveling and keeping our medical conditions in check.
Changing a tire on your truck or toy hauler is going to be the least of your problems. Get Coachnet or AAA RV Premiere to handle that part for you. If your RA is as bad as you describe, having an RV may not be the best choice for you. There are ways around problems, but it usually involves lots of money.
I hate to sound so pessimistic, but those are the cold brutal facts dictated to us by Big Brother.
