It amazes me how many people cannot accept that some people do things differently than they. Not only are you different, you are wrong and they are morally superior.

Thanks for this video, and all of tgem

Being a full timer myself, I think nobody looks at this the right way. It's not how much it costs you to live full time in an RV. It's what the difference between living in an RV versus living in a home. This is a huge difference and far less expensive to live in an RV. The only way it is more expensive is if you compare it to dollars spent per square foot occupied. For most of use the freedom and mobility outweigh this. Thanks for the video guys.

We're a fulltime sailing family of 5 and just celebrated our 4th Christmas onboard. We've sailed thousands of miles, visited and lived in multiple countries. We love this nomadic lifestyle and if we return to shorelife we will be purchasing an RV. I find episodes like this interesting as it gives us insight to costs to see if RV life is possible for us. Both the boating world and RV world seem to be going through lots of changes .. vehicle age restrictions for rv park- marinas, boondock- anchorage limitations and regulations that make full timing on boat or RV more challenging Thanks for sharing your experiences with us.

Your channel is becoming one of my favorites.

Thank you for sharing these numbers, we're working towards doing the full time RVing in a year and a half to see the country for a couple of years, like you I'm a budgeter, I track everything already, and I created a budget for the long trip and worried that I was off or missing something, this truly helps!!

We are going full time this summer since we are empty nesters, and we will be working full time as we are both self-employed. Thanks for posting this level of detail. Super helpful!

[adventurecrews]

Love the 2023 video and actually can not believe how much RV life to Boat life is very similar! We Anchor for FREE 90% of the time but our maintenance bill certainly makes up for the cost of RV parks. We had to pay $12, 700.00 for insurance in 2023 and about another 25-30K in maintenance.
Fun fact, we are also from Sarasota! Keep it coming guys and congratulate on going full-time on YT Darlene!

[MTNurse]

WOW, Congratulations on your success! 22.2K subs in 1 years is something to be proud of! You will continue to go FAR!

Good for people to see the reality of many of the cost of full time RVing! I do wish more people would use the phrase Glamping and not camping . If you are pulling around a gigantic RV and parking it in a lot with electric. That’s not camping! Many people get confused with the differences . And it is a huge difference!

[billhughes]

Super helpful, thanks for sharing all those details.

[maxhicksarmor]

Hey Darlene and Barry, as a travel nurse I have my own budget of things. But I will truly say I appreciate you sharing the reality of reality. I know there’s a lot of people out there that will judge without being in your shoes, but I always say do what you wanna do and let other people do what they wanna do. Lol not everybody’s gonna agree!! But the fact of the matter is being out here traveling around is a whole different budget than being in a home sticks and bricks. And you’re right it does make people uncomfortable, especially ourselves, but it is a reality. So keep doing what you’re doing and cutting where you can. But don’t stop having the adventures and the fun. I mean truly that’s what it’s about right! To live a life like very few do.❤😁🙏

[MicaandJamesburgdorf]

Thank you for sharing your budget and comparison to 2023. I found it super helpful and this year’s budget seems so much more realistic to a wider range of viewers. 😊

This is Wonderful, a Big Thank You. Keep doing what you are doing because there are a lot of us that appreciate it. We have been at this for three years and moving into full time soon. So this information is very helpful.

The last video I saw from you all was when you had your accident. I am unsure why I haven't seen you all in a while, but I am glad you both are doing well. Hope to see more of you all.

[ddcornell]

Happy New Years. Congratulations on being year two on YouTube.
