What are your thoughts about living in an RV as a young adult?

Xper 5 Age: 29

I am 27 and still live at home right now. I purchased an RV to live in since apartments are expensive. In addition, if I paid for an apartment, I will never own it in the end, unlike my motorcoach RV. I am about to move out any week now in the start of next year.

The RV is 27 feet long and has two slide outs. The first 2 images below do not show the slide outs extended.

What do you think? Will women find this attractive or a turn off? Also, how can I remodel it to look more masculine and modern?

Oh, and really it has 3 slide outs if you include the bedroom slide outs. Ughh... I cannot think today.

Congratulations! My husband & I are RV owners as well. In fact, we have 3 motorhomes (Class B off-roader, B Plus & "giant" A) and an Airstream trailer. However, they're parked fully-hooked-up in our home when not travelling. We used to rent out (alternately) 3 out of the 4 RVs but ceased doing so because of Covid. We occasionally find difficulty booking full hook-up sites in RV parks/resorts and we're only there for a few days. Some sites can cost upward to nearly $200.00 per day. Unless the RV park you will be "residing" in has long-term monthly leases, how will you manage long stays if they don't?

I think it can be nice. But where do you park that thing? For how long or do you travel often? What about my wifi? 😂

  Many of these RV parks offer long-term, month-to-month rental sites. The problem is they are all booked. There are waiting lists that can last months. Apparently, RV living has become popular.

  It does sound nice, you can 'stay inside, lockdown' but you can also still go places

Not glamorous but it can be cost effective, spent a fair bit of time living in campers or similar size cabins for work. They’re pretty comfy if you’re just by yourself, but water, sewer and power can be a challenge unless your paying for a serviced site.

And I don’t know where you are, but from what you said you’re paying for that thing I feel like that could easily be a mortgage payment on a little condo

  I am paying about $915 a month for 7 years. If I were to purchase one of these brand new, it would have been $180k!!! I got this one slightly used (2009 model) with 4,600 miles for $54k.
  Housing market in Knoxville right now is outrageous!!! Worse than Nashville. Houses have about doubled in price here, as it is a seller's market.

  Yeah housing market is up everywhere. Just saying, that monthly payment would be a mortgage on about 250k over 25 years
  Beats living at home for sure, just not sure it was the best move

That’s gonna be hard core tough I can understand through the summer but you have to have heat for the winter you have to have a shower toilets etc. stoves and you have to maintain it and keep it up. You have to go to a lot of dump stations pretty much every day

Stop doing things just for the sake of having someone like you maybe, do the things you like and if someone likes you maybe it'll be for you

Would still rather live in a house or an apartment, even if I do have to shovel out the extra money.

  Is it unattractive if a guy lives in a motorcoach RV?

  No, it's better than a guy not trying to get a home at all.

That’s kinda cool. It’s like a Van but bigger. And more likely to fall over

  More attractive than a guy in debt with no plans to escape.

  Would you date a guy that loves in an RV and likes to travel? Also, I am seeking a woman without a romantic past, so do you think this may help my cause?
