My first "RV" was a 1975 VW Westfalia pop-top with various pop-ups, travel trailers, sailboats, powerboats and trawlers following over the next 40 years. Where we felt we needed some support was when we came to the decision about full-timing - and that had more to do with things other than the RV itself. We found the RV-Dreams spring educational rally to be most helpful. We came away from a week of seminars and networking with a fat notebook full of information to go back over and a wealth of knowledge and insight from the people we met and interacted with at the rally. The price was modest and we thought it was well worth it.
