Full timing is a big step with so many things to consider..Getting mail is one as well as internet for banking etc..Some rent a storage unit for stuff/tools-How many will you take to get by.Tire chains for winter/ladders/shovels etc the list goes on and things get heavy for a TC.
As a short example..I have never weighed the 10,000 GVWR my truck has with my Lance 9.6 non-slide truck camper until this last trip..My wife took everything out of the cupboards and re-stocked the camper from the house..I weighed before I left..10,660 pounds:S
But I should ad,we had everything needed to full time..
Just to ad,we full timed in a 35' Jayco FL also..I was really limited on where I could go and in the winter,things got scary sometimes pulling it but lot's of room..My opinion only,rigs that long are for RV parks not dispersed camping..
