Now we are looking to tour fla full time and wonder what we need to make it comfortable with all the features. We want to of course pay as little as we can but need 3 slide outs washer dryer ect. we look for anyones advice as where to buy. or what to buy

Hi and welcome...

The first thing to get what you are after.... is your driving license..... what does it let you drive, weight wise..?

You may be better asking the same question on our sister site = RVOC... which is a dedicated RV`ers site and club..

There are a good few full timers on there.. driving the size rig you will need to accomodate all your needs..

Good luck in your venture.. :thumb:

It is one thing to want all the belles and whistles RV
What are you licensed to Drive.
No point getting a 12 Ton RV. Only legally to drive 7.5ton

I came up against this
Not. Ring able to go the HGV route I had to keep below 7.5ton

I am able to tow 8.25ton
My RV is 27 foot long 5.8 ton Gross weight
If you want a slide out you add a ton to the vehicle
So your wish list may be out of your reach
Good luck with your future Possible full time

I started over a year ago full timing best thing I ever did
Yours Ian

11yrs, but many years a tugger.
Dudleys as was, went Phutt some while back. All be it that I have had a letter from Paul Dudley, saying that Dudleys RV, as it is now named, is starting up again at the family farm about now. :winky:

Ok you lot, it has been said several times now ..............
the OP lives in the
USA,
not the UK.

:Eeek: PLEASE TRY AND FOCUS. :ROFLMAO:
