So much good advice, not much to add other than to ask a question. Do you guys really need such a big land yacht? Selling up and renting or down sizing would free up a lot of cash for worldwide travel

"Need" is a relative term. We will go out to the beach every few weekends and a week at a time to a place like Zion or the Grand Canyon, and a month or more at a time on an extended trip at least once/year.
If you only use one once or twice a year, definitely rent. My payment on my new Winnebago is about that of a mid-priced Lexus. Its definitely not economical, but its probably cheaper than driving and getting a decent hotel room every night. Also, pulling over for lunch in your own kitchen, and getting a piece of trim while you're stopped is also nice.
