I see a lot of wrenching in this pic and it scares me.

Depending on how we liquidate this tractor collection, I'm planning on paying cash for new or a near new RV. I agree with the if it's gonna be live/work you definitely should be in a Class A, but also not longer than 30' as that appears to be a limit for a lot of campgrounds. The Forest RIver FR3 RVs look perfect for this because instead of a rolling bunkhouse it's a rolling 1 bedroom apartment w/ a king sized bed. And that configuration seems a lot better for empty nesters w/ a pair of 80 lb dogs looking to add another maybe. As far as a data connection goes, redundancy in networks sounds like a good US solution, I'd only want satellite if we were heading south, and TBH, I don't think I'd be allowed to do my job outside of the US for security reasons. And as much as I'd love an actual overlander with a good overlanding trailer to just disappear with, that's not really my wife's ideal, she loves not camping.


Going w/ a TRD Pro Sequoia or Tundra gives me a bulletproof rig for the rest of life, but maybe not towing something big enough, that's unfortunate, part of my desire here is to buy things that I'm not gonna have to stress about anytime soon w/ proper maintenance. I suppose a big diesel would suffice, I'd just prefer to stick w/ Toyota at this point.
