It’s probably pretty obvious to you by now that each RV has pros and cons. I’d second others comments and suggest you attend RV shows, visit dealers, and ask questions on the forum until you feel you understand all the issues and can make a good decision. But take everything a salesman tells you with a grain of salt, their goal is to sell an RV, not provide you with what might be best for you.
One thing not mentioned is size. Keep in mind that the bigger RV you get the more issues you’ll have with where you can comfortably go. Some roads, and campgrounds may be difficult and even things like gas stations and parking lots may require preplanning. And you may find yourself always making reservations to ensure you can get a spot big enough to fit. This may not be a big problem if you always stay in commercial parks and close to civilization, but “scenic” roads and less developed campgrounds could be a headache.
You might also check some other forums; there are some devoted to singles and to women RVers that might be helpful. Sorry I can’t offer a link, but you should be able to locate them if you dig around.
