    X2, You will get sick of it in time.
    Believe 1/2 of what you see and nothing of what you hear.

    I had a travel trailer for 5-6 months and spent every other Thursday-Sunday in it and I loved it! I had all of the same things in it as I did my house for everyday use.

    I was thinking I would probably do it for about the same amount of time. But, the whole safety issue NordicBear mentioned has me almost rethinking it. Bummer :(

    Thought:
    Cant you pay for a week in a hotel at different locations, maybe like an extended stay where there is a little kitchen to cook in as well?
    I would assume it is cheaper then buying a MoHo, safer and it is still the same concept. You can drive from city to city and see which one you like the best.

    That's a great idea. However this whole idea came alive bc I want to buy a Moho.

    RV parks have a lot to do with how much you're willing to spend in space rent, higher space rent usually very safe ie; Islander. If you're talking about putting it in a trailer park, some are Ok, others not really.

    Fwiw, I had the option of bringing my MoHo to live in at my current assignment but rented an executive style apartment instead. I'm giving up a $1000 a month in per Diem to do so but it's roomy and has washer/dryer in apt.

    Good or Bad Idea?

    Also, make sure to look into RVs that would meet your needs and quality of life. They can be more expensive than you think
