Finding the Perfect RV Layout for Our Family (And Why It Took So Much Work)

 

When we first started looking at RVs, we had no idea just how deep the rabbit hole would go. You’d think it’s as simple as walking onto a lot, picking a floorplan you like, and hitching it up. Nope.

So You Broke an RV Window… Now What?

 

Ah yes, the joys of RV life. Wide open roads, nature out the front door, and—oh, what’s that? A shattered window? Yep, we’ve been there.

Let me get one thing out of the way first: full-time RVing isn’t always sunshine and scenic views.
