I bought one when I retired. I found out several things I never knew before.
1) I can't drive 55
2) An RV feels unsafe at 75
3) I can't get down on my knees to hook up the black water drain and RV parks will not do it for you
4) Most (if not all) gas stations have removed their black water disposal stations due to insurance concerns
5) Do not buy an RV until you rent one of several different sizes and try them out
6 ) RVs are noisy on the road
7) An RV is like a boat defined as a hole in the water that you pour money into
Lessons learned from someone who has been there.......
Re #7, RV like a boat, hole in the water that you pour money into. Add small plane to that list. I’m so dumb I have all 3. Oun a 40ft MH, 20 ft boat, and a Piper Archer 180 hp airplane. Keeps me lite and fit, at least in the wallet.
