Should we live in a RV full time while my husband travels to different job sites?
Q. My husband will be assigned to different job sites for 2-6 months at a time, then we'll come back to our home base for a few months in between. He will get paid extra for his living expenses while on the job site. Instead of just throwing this money away to a hotel or corporate apartment, we were thinking about living in a RV (we are thinking about a 5th wheel with 2 bedrooms for $15-25k). That way, at the end, we'll have a RV paid off, or we can sell it & make some of our money back. Financially, I think this makes sense. However, I want to go into this with my eyes wide open. What are the pros & cons? Cold showers? Safety? What would you estimate are the monthly or yearly costs for upkeep, gas, rent, etc?

A. My husband traveled often before we became small business owners.We considered your option in the past so the family could travel as well with him but did not go through with it. My husband cut his living expenses in half and we invested the difference. Accomodations on RVs can range from cheap to flat out ridiculus not to mention the cost of diesal fuel. Would you prefer resort type RV facilities or mobile park? Daily-weekly-monthly charges for hook ups-gas, sewer line.Hot showers are possible depending upon your RV accomidations. A considerable amount of parks offer shower facilities. Children? Consider school changes. Most decent RV parks have such nice communities. Some online RV communities offer a comment line from past visitors.Hope… [cont.]
