Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.
We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!
We are soon to be full timers, probably this fall (2015). We are in the planning stages and are starting the downsizing that must be done. We are hoping to get a 42 ft Thor Tuscany Motorhome (that is what we are currently looking at). We are quite excited and look forward to learning on this site!

Welcome Cheryl! We too are in the same place as you...the planning/research/downsizing stage. We are hoping to get our house on the market in a month or two, and with any luck be full timers by the end of this summer, 2015. We have looked at several RV's and think we're going to go with the Itasca 42GD. We have looked at several different brands and floor plans and the 42GD just gives us that homey feeling. Since this will be our home I guess that's a good feeling to have, right? Hahaha We have learned quite a bit from everyone on here and I haven't been afraid to ask what I would consider a "newbie" question. I think you've come to the right place, and welcome to the Class of 2015! :)
Welcome. We aren't that close to going FT, but it's not out of the realm of possibility... if certain things fall into place, we could do a sort of FT/stationary ala Terry & Jo(moderator) as soon as 2017(fingers crossed) . For now, we anticipate early 2019 which is a 3 year improvement from when we originally planned at the beginning of our research. Enjoy the ride!!!!

Welcome Cheryl, Garry and 2 furries. Sounds like you're well on the way to beginning your dream. We hope to be out by June of next year, and have started downsizing too. It is exciting I think! I hope everything works out for you, and best of luck!

Welcome to the class of 2015. Best of luck in your efforts in getting prepared. I occasionally give my wife the 'day' count down and her reaction is just 'OMG', it's right around the corner. As has already been stated, there will be angst. But this too, shall pass.
