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!!

Hi newbie here!

Mike (significant other) and I aren't all that new to RVing we both have some experience .... but not as a stroke survivor confined to a wheelchair. We are wanting to live the life we have left in the less stress, beautiful scenery and free to roam lifestyle a RV can bring. I am reading books and looked into the Wheelchair accessible RV's and even looked into a "all terrain power chair"  but what I would like to find out is if there are others that are in the same place Mike and I are and what they have come across both good and bad living full time in a RV. Mike and I use to love the freedom of traveling in a RV and on motorcycles (our life was based around riding) so you can just imagine how hard this is on Mike.  I am not looking back at this horrible past year but looking forward to what still can be..... ANY advise will be appreciated. I did post a question in the forum..... confuse

Welcome! In our years on the road, we have encountered a few folks in similar situations. We even spent a little time with a solo paraplegic that was full-timing - such an inspiration. It's not easy, but in the simplest of terms "Where there's a will, there's a way".

"have come across both good and bad living full time in a RV."

One of the "goods" is if its "bad" you can hitch up and move....unless you signed a six month lease somewhere.

You might want to check out www.handicappedtravelclub.com/ I don't know anything about the organization but it looks like quite a few folks are in your situation.
