    I travel pretty light,jeans,t shirts sweat shirts and a jacket or two,Food..some canned goods,onions,spices etc. and fresh food just pick up at a local grocery store as you pass thru town.
    I have been thing about a gps..I know I need a cell phone.So still very much in the planning stage..be easier to just take car and stay at motels..not my idea of having a nice time.
    We shall see..stock market is down which is how I make money now.
    Stick to the plan, cars, motels boring.small rv with all the amenities...You wont regret...Plus if you don't like you sell...
    ...anyways whatevrr you decide happy trails....

    Think my cat would kill me if I took him on the road let alone leash an 11 year old cat.
    I am gonna miss my 11 alot,not for sale but I don't think I can ride it like I used too.I saw this on 1/1/16..this was made for me...

    Bill that looks like the "Dark side" and very comfortable
    There are some small C class that certainly have more room than the B class.
    The Roadtrek is a great machine but it comes at a steep price in both $$ and lack of convenience. As Tom points out no where to put all the "stuff" you want to take along.

    Think you will be unhappy with that ,you need to be able to stretch out,....YOU NEED TO BRING LOTS OF SUPPLIES,NEED STORAGE AREA,IE COOLERS,BLANKETS, HEATER ,F00D WATER.....TOOLS!!!!!THIS ALL TAKES UP ROOM.....When traveling,Its like stocking your house for road trip,computer,wireless connection, at all rv parks free....please check out 20 to 24 ft class c used motor hm first,..make sure you ask if everthing works and roof is sound..you have to always get up there and look at roof..Leave money in budget for brakes and tires.usually these need attention..when used...I have a feeling you are a classic rv er.......and will enjoy it a lot.Put motorcycle on trailer in rear., and you r ready to go....those vans r to small..and big money ,get more for your money with class c motor hm.....

    Hi Bill,
    How about a trailer instead?

    Probably costs more then a used RV but it certainly is compact.

    Tom thanks for the rv advice.It is all new to me.I know a few basics that I want.Will be going to an rv show in two weeks to look at new ones and droll but I will go used for sure.I want something that if I wanna go to the store it is easy to do,fit normal parking spots but I want it to be 6'6 tall inside in the body.
    Seeing too many videos..this might work
