My advice is quite simple - have a plan. Personally we have a 2 year plan. The current year while not written in stone is somewhat firm in the direction and intent. The second year is a general idea. As we close out our current year we are firming up the next year and planning for that second year again. We try to minimize the amount of criss crossing so we are not replicating routes. Also saves on fuel and other expenses. Once you have a rough idea of your plan then decide on what kind of “rig” you feel will best suit your needs i.e. travel trailer, fifth wheel, class C, class B, class A, etc..

One other thing we plan on, we stay almost constantly at least 2-3 days per stop and plan on staying at specific areas for at least 3-4 weeks at a time. In the 4 years we have been full timing we have averaged 8-9,000 miles a year. Setting up and tearing down every day in my opinion will cause burnout quickly. Take your time, it’s a journey not a race.

What specific questions do you have so far? Many first wonder what kind of RV to get or how much does it cost to travel.

Here is a link to my notes when we rented an RV: ourfutureinanrv.wordpress.com/2015/07/18/renting-an-rv-part-1/

Tell us more about your expectations such as wanting to travel quickly around the country or staying put for longer periods of time.

I would also join other forums for advice although you have come to the right place here at RV Dreams. IRV2 is a great forum at www.irv2.com/forums/

And once you decide on a make and model RV, then joint that specific owners group forums.
