Thinking of Full Time would love some advice
My husband works remote, and we're discussing full time RVing. I have a few questions about this topic. What type of insurance is the best? Should we buy new or used? We've never owned an RV befo...

Traveling is definitely a problem for health insurance as there is little that is ACA compliant and allows nationwide coverage. BUT, if you're healthy, will be only needing emergency care, and will be going home yearly for physicals that might be fine for you.
As far as a rig, I echo buying used since this will be your first one. You can also buy a newer one later. You need to decide if you want a trailer or 5th wheel, both of which mean you'll need a tow vehicle, or a Motor Home. All have their pluses and minuses. We're retired, sold our home in Dallas and have been Full TImers for 2 1/2 years and love the lifestyle because we're travelling and sightseeing. Once those days are over, we'll definitely buy or build a house or condo. I cannot see a reason to sit stationary in an RV.
We currently have a car, a honda civic and since it's not fully paid off we think we're going to get a Class C and pull the car behind us.
We're still really on the fence on used/new just because of creature comforts. I've only looked at camping world's website for RVs to buy, what are some other sites? We would need to take a loan out for whatever we do buy, but will have 10% ready to put down. Any advice?
