I started this sub to share, gather and explore new & old ideas related to the full-time RV living experience.

I started over a year ago after retiring from the business I had for over 25 year. My wife and I sold, gave away and donated most of our worthless worldly possessions, bought a lightly used RV (5th wheel) a great used pull vehicle and hit the road. So far the adventure has been 90% positive.

I would like to invite any and all people to join in, ask questions or share their experiences in this unique and growing lifestyle.

That is one of main things we keep focus on is the weather. Your RV style is pretty much what we do, the monthly rental for a nice spot ie, base station. The longest travel day we had was from Central Minnesota to Souther Missouri. It was 11 hours. Sorry to hear about your hail damage. It's the only time you like insurance.

I was surprised by the insurance. They sent an independent adjuster from a town 50 miles away 5 days later (after the 4th of July weekend). Had checks in the mail in 8 days. I was kind of disappointed, the damage to the trailer was just under the threshold of being totaled. But ended up ordering most of the parts on-line and doing the labor myself. This was in July, and because of all the damaged RVs in the area from the storm, the earliest we could get a repair shop to look at it was Dec.We didn't want to stay in WY for 6 months and be there for winter! Got a portable A/C to use until we found a shop that could replace the rooftop one.

Good for you for doing a lot the repairs yourself. It really helps to be inclined to do any repairs. I kept most of my essential tools for doing repairs. I've even made a few side $$ helping others.
