Full time with two vehicles?

[KC10Chief]

My wife and I are still a few years away from RVing full time but I was wondering if anybody travels with two vehicles? I have a Jeep problem. I've had Jeeps for years. Currently have a 2015 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon that I bought new. It's a pretty useless vehicle for anything but off roading. It gets terrible gas mileage, is big on the outside but small on the inside, drives like a dumpster in the wind, can't tow anything bigger than a pop-up, etc. I know a class A could pull it no problem. But I'd really like a 5th wheel for full timing. Our idea for full timing, is to move short distances and stay for a couple weeks or more before moving on. I'd tow the RV, and my wife could drive the Jeep. I just feel like I get a lot more RV for my money with a 5er. Anybody else full timing and moving occasionally with a tow vehicle and another vehicle?

I follow driving our Jeep. Hubby pulls a utility trailer with motorcycles behind the class A. We do 200 or less miles if possible on days we travel. Like stickdog said I can be of assistance in lane maneuvers and watch the trailer, tires, awnings etc to alert him if something isn't right.

Why would you need a Jeep if you have a truck? Do you do that much off-pavement exploring where a 4WD truck does not go?

We've been using two vehicles for the last eight years except when going to Alaska. Our chase car is getting old 190000+ miles and we're debating whether to replace it. Oh and Sandi hates driving it.

The best part of the chase car is that if I put on the blinker to change lanes she'll make the lane change and give me the space I need.

trade the Jeep for a 3/4- 1t tow truck, keep her car. Even set it up to tow her car behind the 5er After a couple weeks having a pickup you wont miss the Jeep, wonder why you ever had one.

In your post I surmise you were going to keep the Jeep, trade her car. Hmmm.
