Hi everyone

I want to change my life and start living in a motorhome that I can drive by myself. I'm so tired of apartments.

I'm looking to be a lifetime RVer. My ideal motorhome should have a drawer dishwasher in the kitchen, and electric appliances are preferred over gas. There should be space for a washer and dryer. And the best showers stalls would have a built-in seat or bench.

I'm hoping to have office space for having a work from home job. And having a garage area for a small EV car seems to be a practical idea to me. Plus, I want to have one cat and one dog to live with me as my travel buddies.

I'm currently in a small town in the state of Minnesota. ((brr))

Welcome aboard. We have been full timing for the last eight years. We love that we can change our scenery at a whim. As for the specs you are suggesting your RV to have, It sounds like you might need some deep pockets. ;)
 
Welcome to RVforums. Good Luck on your search that is a tall list of wants. Make sure you also have a list of must haves as well as wish to haves.
 
Welcome to the forum.
You have a lot to learn, and much more information to provide before experienced experts on full-time RV living can help you.

Your desire to have an EV car with your RV narrowed down your choice to: A gas powered " toy hauler" Class A motor home by Newmar or The REV Group, or a pull behind 5th wheel big enough to fit a small car. I don't believe any toy hauler TT will fit the bill.
As far as offices go many work on the road RV'er convert their dinette space to accommodate an office setting. There are some larger 5th wheels with separate office space, or many Class A's will desk station work areas as part of the living salon space.
 
As RVers we are all always learning and in some cases relearning. I have been doing this for a long time and still learn from my own sometimes not so pleasant experiences. as well as from others knowledge or discoveries and yes even from newbies.

Possible thought would be flat tow a vehicle. I always used our dining room table for my office on the road. We have a table not a booth which worked quite well for the office. I also have a couple small snack trays that use if I am just doing computer work. Many of the Class As have a dedicated spot for the washer/dryer. Good luck with your search and your journeys
