One Year Full Time RV Living Cost (SO WORTH IT)

[@angmarbar11]

My husband and I are starting to really investigate the full time RV life. Looking for “mentors” more our age, and you are my new favorite! Great information, no click bait, no fake ‘look at me!’ personalities. Thank you and we will be watching and learning!!

[@fresh2k2004]

It is sad. RV'ing is such a joy. You can do it on a budget or spend millions. It depends on you. I hope the general audience watching these types of videos can enjoy and learn from the information provided by this lovely young couple.

[@roydavis2242]

I tell people that we don't RV to save money, we RV to experience life.

[@todayissomeday]

Spot on!

[@DylanBegazo]

What about both? Both sounds ideal

[@DylanBegazo]

TikTok funny, weird, uncomfortable Videos channel Can you elaborate what you mean by investing to balance against those RV expenses? For example: What stocks in particular are you referring to? Do you go through a company to get consistently positive growth stocks that outperform the S&P 500 stock index or no?

[@dsanti4069]

Why not travel the USA with a car and stay at decent hotels. The experience is somewhat the same right? I dont see the joy in driving a 10,000 vehicle that cost 1,000s to fuel and maintain.

[@DylanBegazo]

D Santi The experience is similar but, for example, a schoolie would be superior if built right. Typical RVs cost many thousands of dollars. A range of $25,000 to $100,000 or higher. I’ve spent days looking. It’s insane. But you can make a “schoolie” which is a school bus RV by buying a school bus for no more than $5K, ideally $3K, and then renovate it yourself to be your “hotel” on wheels. Complete with refrigerator, full size bed, bathtub and shower, full kitchen, nice living room with your own WiFi to stream your Netflix and hulu and amazon prime tv, play your Xbox. Go for bike rides using the bike you got in the garage part of the back of the bus. Etc. So long as you build your schoolie with a electricity source like solar and a good high capacity battery bank like lead acid batteries or lithium ion batteries or my favorite: Inergy inc batteries. Total renovation investment never is above $15K. Meaning you have a fully built schoolie for total investment of $20K. Which will always pay itself back because you spend over $20K in your lifetime traveling using hotels and lodging if you’re like me and travel every single year. So it’s a good investment. Buses are different from cars too. Most people cry when their car approaches 60,000 miles or even 100,000 miles. But buses easily can go over 500,000 miles no problem and are easy to fix and are less costly to fix if you purchase the right bus from the start (don’t get a bus from a coastal school system because they will have rust). The answer to your statement is the experience is similar but the small differences make a huge world of difference financially. You save a lot of money with a schoolie versus going to hotels all the time and or just using a car. Good hotels are $100 a night or more. When I say good I mean 4 star or higher. My schoolie has everything I mentioned above. I use 375 watt solar panels on the roof totaling 2000 watts of solar. My Inergy batteries are better than lithium ion. I’ve got my own toilet and shower and full kitchen with lots of food storage. I’ve got water tanks underneath that are filled every time it rains too because I use a rain water harvesting roof and water purification system. 2000 gallons of water storage. The toilet is a nature’s head composting toilet. Doesn’t waste water. I park the bus somewhere close to the fun place we’re trying to go and I unload my SUV from the open flat bed trailer in the back and go have fun. I’ve got a motorcycle on it too. So I could take my Kawasaki 650 instead if it’s a nice day. What about when I’m not traveling? The whole thing is parked in my garage at home. They got electric school buses now too. You know that? You can even upgrade to a biodiesel bus too. Cheaper than gasoline if you got your own biodiesel processor back home. All you need is the free and used fryer oil McDonald’s dumps at the end of the day. You take that home. Put it in the processor. Check back later and you got biodiesel. Fill up your bus tank with it and if you got an auxiliary tank like I do, fill that up too to increase the driving range of your bus between fillups. Total investment: Less than $20,000 (excluding car trailer and SUV and Motorcycle and Biodiesel processor)

We enjoy watching all your videos! We house disabled veterans in our home what use to be a nursing home and we would love for you guys to come and park in our driveway for as many nights as you need! Thanks for your service to our country 🇺🇸

[@miamoore1666]

My mom always told me you can’t take it with you so it’s great you’re enjoying your lives and seeing and doing things rather than just surviving. And whether by hard work or inheritance you were blessed with the ability to buy an RV like that and do all this I’m happy for you. For my husband and I and my medical bills (I’m 55) this wouldn’t be possible we can barely survive. I’m hoping in my next life I find my husband and we are more fortunate.

[@TheHadassahMinistry]

My husband and I will be biting the bullet and buying our first motorhome this coming spring. We’ve been watching your videos and they’re so informative. I’m actually shocked at how inexpensive your fuel costs were. That, and the cost of insurance were 2 of my 3 biggest concerns. The third being what it will cost to plate it. Thank you. On a different note: I love your high and tight haircut. That’s exactly how my Papaw wore his hair and every time he got his hair cut he’d enter the doorway and he’d immediately put his head down so I could rub my hand over it. I’m 48 now and he passed when I was 20. I was his favorite and he was mine so to see your high and tight always makes me think of him. Keep the awesome videos coming!

[@todayissomeday]

Congrats on making the decision to RV. I still get my haircut about every 2 weeks'ish. It is really hard to find folks who can cut a good high and tight. Hope to meet ya in the wild someday!

[@chesterboy60]

Regarding their cost of fuel, I noticed this video was posted 2 yrs ago...when fuel prices were less. I could be wrong with the timing of this video, but wanted to give you a heads up. Safe travels and God bless to all of you RV'ers!

[@ourhealthyfamilylife1920]

[@EarlBalentine]

With our motorhome traveling the USA, we average around $5000 per month in cost. The longer you stayed in one spot using less fuel the cheaper your monthly cost would be. Our motorhome lawn payment, storage fees and insurance averaged around $1100 per month just sitting in storage.

[@joelandstephanieg3574]

Seeing the breakdown for expenses is very helpful as we weigh the pros and cons of buying an RV and taking our family of 8 on the road part time. I wondered about 2 things: 1. Did the fuel costs you mention only include diesel for the rig or does that also include gas for your towed vehicle? 2. How much of these expenses can you "right off" as business expenses for your YT/website business? Or do you not bother to do that?

[@todayissomeday]

Thanks Joel. The diesel cost was for the RV only. We didn't list the Jeep as folks have different toads. We are able to right off some items that are YMRV centric.

[@rubo1964]

when you consider average property tax is around 6k then paying 6k for camp fees is equivalent but you get to go places!Starting to warm up to this lifestyle.You guys look great together!

[@SewTexas]

Thank you both for your military service! My husband 22 years in Air Force as medical doctor. I think all the military camping facilities are great. We are not RV'ers, I personally love to go out and experience US. Hubby had enough of TDYs and not the least bit interested in getting into any camper--ever. I took out 2 youngest sons when they were younger and we did 33 states including Canada and 12 weeks, hubby stayed home and took care of pets and worked. I do watch many folks who live in their RV and they seem to be having a good time. Thanks for your channel.

[@rockymntnliberty]

Not much boondocking. I think for me I would spend half to three-quarters of my time boondocking for free. Amenities can be nice, but for the most part I would rather be off on my own in the woods. I know a lot of this has to do with where you go and the areas you're in, but a person can plan carefully and Boondock the vast majority of the time at least in the parts of the country I like. Park in the woods for a week or two then go to an RV park for a day or two to refill water and empty holding tanks and just enjoy a park atmosphere for a day or two.

[@alanj7306]

You must have missed the part where she said boondocking can actually be more expensive.

[@rockymntnliberty]

@@alanj7306 I don't remember so well what they said about boondocking. I can see how it would possibly be more expensive at times if you're having to run a generator 24/7 and if you're having to pay expensive dumping fees to empty holding tanks. Generally I would say that is the exception rather than the rule. When I go boondocking I typically will spend about $20 in fuel and $5 for dumping fee when I get home, on a 3 Day outing.

[@higherho1540]

@@alanj7306 Depends on the type of RV you have but a Camper Van with a Lithium system technically isn’t more expensive to boon-dock than be at a camp site. Also, she did say boon-docking can be more expensive, but that’s for a Class A that has a lot more variables. I could imagine it would be because it doesn’t have the same systems as a Lithium Camper Van (or the mobility) to be totally off grid. The hidden costs of a Camper van for example is drastically much smaller and is still cheaper than camping at a site. Overall, boondocking is cheaper but only if you have the systems for it. They would pay out the nose for fuel because a lot of their systems depend on that. Where we would not have to worry about that.

[@skidz8426]

Great video. I’m travel on my motorcycle been thinking about getting a RV. What irritates me about some military base camp grounds is tent camping can be $20/night. I have the smallest foot print while camping. I sleep in a hammock. My cooker is a rocket thing. I don’t require electricity. I prefer BLM or under $10/night. $17/night in an RV that’s great. Great video best video like this I’ve seen. Very honest and informative.

Don't feel the need to defend your lifestyle. You're obviously economically responsible have saved and are able to enjoy your retirement. There are many people living on much less usually because they have to. Your foresight has allowing you to enjoy and live the way you want to.

[@papayne]

Thank you for the heads up. I’m retired Navy and a disabled Gulf War veteran. Just sold my farm in Virginia with intent to travel on access pass as cheaply as possible until I find a new home. Might even enjoy track days along the way assuming I can stay at tracks overnight too. Just me and a dog (smaller one than in pic tho). With OCD and PTSD I believe my best and cheapest approach is traveling by pickup and towable camper as ultimately better than an RV option, leaving me either a truck (or motorcycle) to get around on without all the luggage. You’re video helped me reach that conclusion. My main concern is being out there alone and without support. Thinking there must be groups of veterans to track day enthusiasts out there, I found your channel. Ultimately I want to have another small farm somewhere again, so will use this time to find that - which drives my choice to keep it as cheap as possible, saving for that expense. With RV rentals costing hundreds per night, I’d be better off living in hotels wherever I go! So I just can’t seem to find a better alternative for myself than the expense of a truck I will always need… Just hope my reasoning is sound since I have no experience with it. Thanks again for the help

[@bukalev]

Much cheaper than I’d thought. Two huge items not included, though: Food & the actual RV $$$$$

[@roadster2776]

the rv depends on the camping person , from a $50 tent to a $2,500,000 Newell MH , and food depends on choices , but everyone has to eat , so cost is moot

[@TheBigWanger]

We had Harvest Hosts for 1 year, but just was too far out of the way for our way of travel. We have the TSD card as well. All in all, our camping fee totals for the year, just under 1K.

[@alanj7306]

Your expenses didn’t seem bad at all. All of them were actually less than I was expecting, especially fuel, insurance, and camping. I always pay my car and home insurance in a single payment. It definitely reduces the cost. Seems like your money was well spent and you’re loving life! Great video and God bless!

One thing that will save you a ton of bank is the America the Beautiful Annual pass, available at any ranger station. This will give you entry to any national park for 80 bucks a year, instead of the 25-50 dollars per park. It pays for itself after a few parks.

[@Terryblount]

National parks and many rest stops have free water and dumping. Truck stops always give me water... the tip for free water is to keep a short water hose inserted into your fresh water tank. Connect your water hose to the hose that goes into your tank and open the faucet full force. You'll fill up in a few minutes. No leaks. No splash back. I fill up my 70 gallon tank in 16 minutes at home and about 10 minutes at locations with higher water pressure. Without a hose into the tank the water goes in so slow that it takes over a half hour. That much time and someone will be asking how much water are you getting.

Excellent honest review cost budget. Thank you for the video. Have a blessed day.

[@elizabethb6]

You inspire me.... want to live the RV life soon! Thank you!

[@todayissomeday]

Go for it!

I did a few months overseas. I am an AVID TRAVELER- the most traveled of anyone I know, and oddly enough… after a few months, I was satisfied and ready to stay in just one place. I imagine if I were to RV it might be similar. I think seasonal RVing sounds fun, but full time… not so much.

[@todayissomeday]

Not at all for us. We were 6 months in and knew we made the right decision for us.

[@shannacraft4099]

🌼 WhooHoo USAF!!! 😁 I enjoyed this informative video! Thank you both and stay safe out there!!!

[@todayissomeday]

Our pleasure!

Sam's club mastercard gives 5 cents back on every dollar spent on fuel. Any fuel, anywhere. It adds up quick and you get that back in cash every February.

[@joannedavis7346]

Great info as usual! Good to see you’re doing well Phil!🙏🏼🤗

[@todayissomeday]

Thanks so much!

Lone Camper" I been watching for awhile just decided to subscribe, enjoyed you guys and good information for the RV public.

[@danielwfosterii2363]

use your phone as a hotspot. I do that living in a regular house.

[@MT20233]

I do that also .. I gave up WiFi 2 years ago .. $170 a month for WiFi and cable.. in the last 2 years without either saved me $4,000 and I use an antenna for basic tv channels I get about 70 channels most aren’t very good tho.. and I use my cell to hot spot my computer and smart TV.. I can stream movies without and issues at all, I just wish I did this much sooner ..

[@1950bobk]

Another good one. Costs are right on. Because of this Covid mess we screwed up the last 3 months at $35 a night and that effected our nightly average. Other wise costs are similar. Phil congrats on the shoulder improvement.

[@todayissomeday]

We know the feeling. Thanks.....the should is progressing slowly.

[@daveanddianethrowingcautio5707]

It's always fun seeing what others spend while living on the road. Thanks for sharing.

[@joetomalee3315]

Activities! So much room for activities! Step Brothers! A classic and one of my top 10 favorite movies.

[@tferr9]

Less than I thought to would be. I would love to do that when my kids are grown.

[@darksideofthephilosopher]

My husband and I's goal is to be full time rv living by this time next year. All this information is incredible! Thank you so much!

[@todayissomeday]

So glad you found it helpful!

[@brendanwalsh1675]

Congratulations on 2 years! We just bought our 33aa 2015 and we hope "to see you on the road!"

[@todayissomeday]

Thank you Brendan! We love our 33AA. See ya out here soon!

[@Eyes0penNoFear]

Check out Visible phone service for your internet. It's owned by Verizon so it's not a MVNO. I pay $25 per month for unlimited everything, including hotspot. They only allow you to connect one device for hotspot, but you can get a router (I think it's a router..) which allows you to connect multiple devices.

[@MrBigdee183]

"Free and Florida" are two words you dont hear very much!

[@mikemeehan6389]

I agree with Roy Davis. Good to See Phils wing is working again

[@steeldavidson]

I just found your KZbin and it is great, thank you for sharing this part of your life.

[@todayissomeday]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@Kathrynlove]

So fun. I pray God blesses me with a husband that I can do this kind of adventures with when I am old....I want to live like that in my retirement. Moving around. Talking to people.

[@pattiramsey8511]

People can be so rude with comments. I love hearing how you did this! Thx for sharing!

[@richarddexter7641]

Perhaps in a different life my wife and I could have been full-time RVers. But, it's always fun to dream. Enjoy yours!

[@rvingtails1491]

Thank you very much for the budget information! Go Navy!!!!

[@todayissomeday]

You are welcome.

[@darisanshanger1616]

The first video is how I found you guys today. An easy follow as we are nearly the same age, and you are veterans.

[@andrewlamont5624]

As usual, an extremely helpful video. Not everyone would be comfortable sharing this type of information, but it means a lot to us newbies. Semper Fi

[@paulf1256]

Change to Visible Mobile on Verizon for Mobile and Unlimited Hotspot streaming. You do a party pay 4 devices for $25/month, 3 for $30 and 2 at $35. I use at home 2 devices with one more on my party pay so $60/month for Internet, Mobile and TV. My previous Spectrum internet was $67/month with $40 Mobile.
