We are in our mid 60's. Living in southwest florida. We are going to sell the house and see the lower 48. (Going to the 50th for 3 weeks in Sept.) No desire now to see the 49th. Just can not get away enough with a house to take care of and her working part time.
We just bought a Jayco 5th wheel 33.5 RKTS Wheel. We will take several short learning trips while waiting for the house to sell.
Now we need a truck. Bought the unit first to know what truck to buy. Getting Chevy 2500 crew cab, diesel.
We had a VERY small 5th wheel 20 years ago but didn't get to use it enough. Sold it.
We were guest of a couple in their Jayco for a long weekend for 10 years, "94 to '04. Went tent camping for a week 25 years ago.
Shopped to learn what we wanted/could afford for 2 months. Considered from Class A to 27 foot travel trailers.
I read/lurked this forum some before buying. I learned that The Chevy/Ford and Class A/C debates will never be resolved, along with several others.
I have much to learn, and hope to get some lessons on this forum.

Welcome to the forum and the fulltime lifestyle.
We like our Jayco (Our 2nd Jayco), it has been pretty much problem free and is holding up well to fulltime use.

Welcome! I'm retired from the "Job" too - up in NY. Currently in Georgia but we're looking to leave here and full time it - hopefully by next summer.
