RV Purchase Question

Hi Everyone,

I'm deciding what type of RV to purchase.

A little bit about me:
50 year old woman
Divorced
Grown Kids
Self Employed (can work from anywhere)
Driving experience: Airplanes, Buses, Boats, Trucks pulling trailers, Cars, Tractors, Drove an older RV years ago. I'm mentioning this because I'm very comfortable behind the wheel.

What I'm looking to do: I'll park and live in the RV for months at a time and would like the freedom to move back and forth from beach town to mountain town.

I take frequent business trips (3 days at a time) sometimes on a weekly basis . . . I'm mentioning this because I may not run the water etc for a few days at a time.

What is important to me: (this is what I've thought about so far)
Efficiency (fuel, utilities, etc)
Well insulated
Nice appliances (love to cook)
Easy hookup, easy maintenance

I don't need anything fancy, definitely want to start with something used, I don't need a lot of space but would like to be comfortable.

Thoughts, insight, opinions . . . . . . .greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Purely a personal choice. There are pros and cons to each. If you move often, perhaps a MOHO would better meet your needs. If you are in one place for longer periods of time, a 5th wheel might be a better choice with it's homier style and more floor plan options. With a MOHO, living quarters are readily accessible and constantly climate controlled. With a fiver, you'll have to move about from the truck to the hot or cold 5er between destinations. You'll more than likely need a tow car with a MOHO. So, you'll have the expense of 2 drivetrains, their maintenance and insurance. Consider carefully, as neither will meet all desires and it gets expensive to change.
