This whole idea sounds like a nightmare to me. I have to ask, why?

I would not want to take a trip with 2 adults and 3 teenagers jammed into a small RV even in the Summer. In Winter with temps down to the teens, that is likely to be a miserable experience. You have already heard about some of the issues; e.g, trying to heat the RV, moisture and condensation issues, RVs that are really not well insulated or designed for that sort of use. At the end of a ski day, where are you planning on putting all of that wet gear, skies, boots, clothing?

If you do attempt this insanity, I highly recommend you stay at a campground with hookups. At least you will have electricity to run the furnace and you can even substitute space heaters instead of the furnace. Regardless of the insulation, you are going to need plenty of heat so that you can bring in lots of outside air to try to fight the humidity problem.

Again, why even consider this? The cost for a handful of trips a year is going to be much higher than overnight stays in hotels/motels or even nice resorts.

Not that the OP likely gives a carp about your opinion of his family camping arrangements, but to your point, he did say something like “when the kids are off to college” he wants to get a truck camper…so what was your point?

And fwiw, I’d think you know this beings you’re from the snow belt as well, but campgrounds with hookups basically don’t exist when you can ski down hills on snow….
