It depends on what you want out of it. Consider being more specific with your questions. If you love hosting dinner parties or playing ping pong, then no. Source: about 5 years full time RVer 🤨
You just made me giggle at the thought of someone who’s so passionate about ping pong that they cancel all of their travel & retirement plans for the rest of their lives 🤣
It’s a great thing to do when you’re young and child-free, or starting your retirement. Just don’t expect it to be cheaper than rent and do make sure you understand the basics of keeping your engine in good condition. It is your source of electricity, water, and sewerage. You cannot afford for it to break. Also brush up on your understanding of batteries because you’re going to be relying on them, a lot.
If you are asking if an RV is worth living in in terms of that it is less expensive than a house? Absolutely not.
If, however, it is your plan and purpose in life to be mobile and traveling throughout the areas you have access to, and that’s a completely different story.
I’m afraid your question is to open-ended to answer.
if you include maintenance and depreciation of a new one, sure. if you bought a used but very well maintained one and were able to do most repairs yourself and get free fuel, then its probably closer.
Did 3 years in an RV, would not recommend. But beats the hell out of the month in a tent, and most anything beats sleeping in the 2 door car, there was no getting comfy in that things. The car wasn’t comfy, the tent was kinda comfy but very humid, the trailer/RV was powered, so less humidity problems, but after a while it’s nice to not deal with black water and the limited size (we were in a 27 footer, larger than our apartment kitchen, but not by much)
It’s a great way to escape the haters in DC, and cash in on being a corrupt judge
