There is one piece of wisdom I have: Your first camper will never be your last.
No matter how much homework you do, you will find that the first camper you get will have some flaw that will get you to trade up.

For people like me, it is finding that the time it takes to go fetch it and store it is a PITA, so a small motorhome might be the ticket.
After some camping, you will find that things you thought you couldn't live without don't matter that much. I thought I had to have a pantry and walkaround queen bed, which in reality isn't a necessity.
