For those that track your numbers such as I do with Quicken, share your campground expenses for 2022. I can't remember how many months I was out in 2022 but I think it was 5-6 months.

Months RVing: 5
Campground Costs: $9,000

If you want to share prior years for comparison, please do.
 
2022:
Months Rving: 12
CG Costs: $21,430
Avg. Daily CG Cost: $61.73
2021:
Months Rving: 12
CG Costs: $19,123
Avg. Daily CG Cost: $55.07
2020:
Months Rving: 12
CG Costs: $24,037
Avg. Daily CG Cost: $58.63
 
I'm wondering how much everyones firewood costs were. I know some people don't have campfires and some places don't allow wood fires. Do you include those costs in your campground fees budget/tracking or is that a completely difference expense? I can see a couple hundred dollars a month going up in smoke pretty easily.
 
My costs above are strictly the daily cost of the site. I track electric and propane separately (utilities). I don't track firewood since we don't burn that much.

Would you mind sharing total costs for each year? I'm retiring in 2-3 years and plan to be a 6 month RV'er. Want to start planning budget now. Thanks.

What about fuel? and other costs? Thanks.

If you are referring to living expenses, I'm not sure they would be any help to you since I work full time while traveling.
 
Fuel costs depends on what you're driving, miles you're driving, the cost per gallon. I have a Class A gasser and average 0.40 a mile @ 7.50 MPGs. Maintenance costs also depends on what you're driving, or towing. On average we spend approximately $825 month, but after six years full timing we have done some major work the last two years.
Here's a video that might help you.
