I'm deciding on purchasing a solar battery bank, ecoflow pro or bluetti that has a 30amp rv plug built into their inverter. I do not currently have an inverter in my rv. I have a 12 volt shut-off switch for the current house batteries. When plugging into the new battery bank, it will power ac...

Does anyone know if the HOWA caravans always begin in the Pahrump, NV area or do the scheduled beginning locations change each year? I couldn't locate past caravan locations other than the last one posted for 2022 April. I'm just trying to figure out a basic driving route and how many days it...

I searched the forum but couldn't locate an answer, so i hope someone can help me out. I'm confused about how to maintain a domicile. Let's say I move into an rv park for the 30 days or whatever the state requirement is and qualify for domicile and get tags, license, etc. After the 30 days my...

I'm trying to figure out how to manage retirement, or not having to work so much and this notion or reference of 25X your yearly expenses keeps coming up in web searches.  Did you, as a nomad,  have this "magical" amount before you hit the road?  We have some "passive" income coming in...meaning...

I'm happy to report that the swivel seat base that i ordered arrived today, so, after work this evening, i was able to put it in myself and guess what? It actually works!  Woohooo!  We have a small class c so with the passenger seat now having the ability to face the living area, it opens up the...

Hi everyone! I have been a guest/lurker here for it seems so long that it is now strange to actually post something.  My wife and I have been debating getting some kind of an rv for many years (as well as saving for it). And this summer we finally did it!  We felt the fear of indecision and...
