We've been talking about this for nearly three years but only started seriously moving forward with the plan a mere 4 months ago. I came home from work one day and told the DW I'd had enough and we need to get this going. Our house was already gone, the car payments done and gone, all we had to do was find our RV and commit to the plan! Our fulltime date was chosen for us - the date the lease ends on the house we've been renting for the past year. Letting go of the possessions was daunting at first but once we sold the bigger items the rest was easy. Craigslist is a small miracle!
Our story is probably far from a perfect one, neither of us are retired, the RV is an old 80's Minnie Winnie class C and more than likely we'll be stationary longer than most fulltimers. But we'll be out there, free from bills, freedom to move when we want and explore, homeschooling our 11 year old and spending much more quality time as a family with minimal distractions. Eventually we hope to park the class C on some land in the middle of nowhere and call it home, while we build a cabin but the gas tank will always stay full.
