Hey everyone, I'm new to the form and I couldn't exactly find a good Location for this,

I'm a pilot, but not the airline kind (not my type of lifestyle). With that career choice, it means I move around a LOT. Think around once a year at least.

With that said, after this next contract is up (have another 10 months) I am planning on moving into an RV.

Currently I do not have any children or a wife/girlfriend.

I'm looking for something I can move with me around the country. Say I find a job in omaha Nebraska, I can find an RV park and move there no problem .


Some requirements from me for this vehicle

  • Must be able to haul my motorcycle (Honda Shadow)
  • need Internet, not sure if this is an rv park ting or if y'all do satellite.
  • need an oven (may be flexible here, I just hate cooking without one


I'm a male in his mid twenties so I am plenty flexible, and I am very well versed in gas engines.

My price point is somewhere below 15k but then again I'm by myself, as long as at least the 2 top bullets can be met, I wouldn't mind being in a class b. so long as I can run ac or heat off a generator.


What does the communit think is a good move for me? The reason I want an rv is the flexibility to pickup and move wit the jobs, which are very insecure in this industry. And very volatile.


Thanks for your time

Most MH are not outfitted for freezing temps. In addition good luck in finding a RV park in the north that is open year round.

If you intend to live in your MH fulltime then I would forget the idea of a B. I would look at a C or A say in the 28-30 ft. This size is easy enough to drive, get in most campsites, have decent storage, and actually give you enough room to turn around in.

For your price range you will be looking for something in the mid to late 90's, less expensive and you're looking at even older units. In either case you need to be handy at fixing things. Go to someplace like RVT.com and do a search for MH in your price range and you will find lots of them.

I have seen MH's hauling motorcycles with a hitch mount, others towing on a trailer should not be an issue.

15k will not buy you a reliable rv. your better off at the YMCA. or find a nice beach condo.
