   My friend's parents sold their house, bought a Class A (bus) motorhome, and   
   have lived on the road for 10 years.  It works for them!

   For me, I like the trailer and tow vehicle so I can drop off the trailer and go   
   explore.  A good motorhome is nice though since if you're not wanting to go   
   exploring all over when you travel to different places.   
      
   I'd find a way to get a radio in the trailer, of course.  Maybe a Yaesu FT-891   
   and a Yaesu ATAS-102 would be a good fit.   
      
   Though, I have been thinking that if I'm going to spend that kind of money, I   
   might get a 19' Scamp fifth-wheel trailer.  That way my cat would have   
   somewhere to sleep while we're traveling. :D
