• must have a slide out
• no kitchen in a slide out
• battery space—room for one or multiple batteries?
• can computers be run on batteries for boondocking?
• bunkhouse in trailer
• a space for mike’s desk
• 30ft or less in length
• what are these airbeds? does the rv come with a compressor?

We visited Lakeshore RV in Muskegon today for a couple of reasons:

• To just tour more RV’s to get a better idea of the options available
• To bring the kids this time so that they might better imagine life on the road
• To get some sample prices to give the bank, in order to get input on whether we can afford it

At this point based on what we imagine our requirements to be we are still looking at travel trailers (assuming a full size van as tow vehicle) or Class C motorhome (assuming some sort of 4WD toad).  We were a bit disappointed this dealer had very little in the way of motorized RV’s.  Their salesperson said he’d love to be able to sell them but the reality is he can stock 4-5 trailers for what a decent Class A or Class C rig costs.

On and off for the last couple of years MsBoyink and I have talked about the “Pipe Dream”.

What is it?

Hitting the road full time for a year with the kids in an RV.
