Welcome to the fulltime family here on the forum. Any questions you have about fulltiming, just ask, there are lots of full-timers here and those that dream of doing so. Great set up and [plan you have and mooch-docking on your family's property, ID is a beautiful state, we visited there last year when we went to Yellowstone. staying in place for a week or two you wont get movement fatigue. It can get tiring setting up and packing up every few days and moving again. You can get better rates staying 2 weeks in some places. Your wife and kids are going to be wowed by all the beautiful places in the US. Like visiting 48 individual but interconnected countries each unique to their own area. I have been blessed in my life being able to visit a lot of countries in this world, including the Philippines, makes us appreciate all that we have and the experiences we've had now fulltiming that much more

Wow, I totally missed this thread!
We have been full-timing since August 2021.
We are in a 2021 Reflection 320MKS, pulling it with a 2019 F350 SD SRW diesel.
Started with two dogs and the wife, had to help one of the dogs over the rainbow bridge on July 3, 2023, so it's now one dog and the wife.
Wife is retired, I work full-time remote in the IT field.
We use Starlink for our primary Internet, Verizon hotspot for our primary backup, T-Mobile hotspot for our secondary backup, and AT&T for our tertiary backup.
I have a love/hate relationship with my truck's 48 gallon fuel tank. I love the 400+ miles I can drive without having to stop to full up. I HATE dropping between $150.00-$300.00 to fill the sucker up!
All in all, we love full-timing as we get to see the country! Have no set plans for stopping. We are also visiting states we might want to live in when we are done.Mark & Mary. Full-timing across the USA (and Canada)!

We just joined the ranks as "most timers". We pulled our rig from MN to TX via CA, NV, AZ and NM visiting friends and family along the way. We spent 3 nights at the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta enjoying an almost overwhelming experience. We are work camping at Redbud Ranch RV Resort in Hutto, TX. Lord willing, we will return to MN in May via "don't know yet". I understand it's a nice route.

Parking your rig in the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta park is the best way to see all the events without having to spend hours in line to get in. Sites open for reservations in January and they go fast, in about 2 hours. There are 4 campgrounds to choose from, so you need to know which ones are your highest priority. Tickets for daily events go on sale in April or you can buy them at the park. For example, we were in the VIP West campground for 3 nights and the site came with 2 event tickets.($355 for 3 nights) We purchased 4 more event tickets at the park. You need one ticket per person for each morning or evening event. Camping is rally style with just enough space for one vehicle. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would go again.

We are Daniel and Jennifer been fulltime for 1 1/2 years but just bought a 2020 Reflection 337RLS 5er this past april, we tow it with our 2020 Ram 2500 Diesel. getting ready to outfit it with solar and already have 400AH of lithium and putting in a 3000watt inverter. Right now we are in Mesa, AZ for the winter.
We are in our late 30s and never bought a house and was tired of renting and paying someone else’s mortgage so our first RV we bought was a 2000 northwood nash 5th wheel lived in it for the year until we found a great price on the Reflection we have now and own it outright.Last edited by DanandJen; 10-31-2023 at 09:35 AM.
