Some of the 55+ crowd in the Seattle area buy $50,000+ RVs, and drive to the Southwest towing a regular car behind their RV. I think they belong to cliquish clubs like the Good Sam (good samaritan?) Club, and they park at the same RV parks year after year, and play cards with the same people. That sounds really boring, especially compared to what you have in mind.
I think your plan is an excellent plan, Alex. Good luck!
