Trying to get started

[Dave P]

We are new at RVing and are looking at our first motorhome. We are retired 2 adults and 2 dogs and are looking at options. We are considering a 2004 gulfstream bt touring with 63,000 miles. We are in FL and would like to travel the country. Any help/opions/advice would be greatly appreciated.Thank you

Welcome!

My best advice to you at this stage is to get a professional inspection on anything you are considering purchasing. The NRVIA website will help you find a pro. Home - NRVIA

Welcome aboard. You don't say if you will be full timing so I suspect not, however, you do mention touring the country. I suggest that you make sure you are going to be comfortable and that the floor plan is what you want. You don't say how big your dogs are. Will you be traveling for more than a month at a time? Do you plan to do any boon docking? I don't think the year, make, model and milage are really that important but no matter what you intend to purchase, I would have it professionally inspected. You don't want an unwelcome surprise when you are on the road.

Safe travels

Have you tried renting a MH to see if you like it? Unlike a trailer you have more options to try first. Will you be pulling a toad behind it?
