Hello from the Bay Area (NorCal)
New to the forum, soon to be new RV owner, and dare I say soon to be full-timer... After looking all over at different sizes old and new, I decided to go with a Forest River Wildwood X-lite 273qbxl for my wife and I, along with our 2 kids. I have been extremely excited, but nervous at the same time. I have been doing some research and trying to figure out if this is the right choice for us. I have lived off less, but it's a little different trying to get the kids to understand why we will have to take military showers and only keep the things we absolutely have to have with us. I will be picking up the trailer in 2 days and the closer it gets, the more I realize I don't know nearly enough...but I think experience is the best way to learn, and whether this ends up being for 6 months or 6 years, I think it will have a positive impact on the way we live. Anyways, I have a lot of questions about what things are absolute necessities, and what are just for added convenience or comfort(i.e. sway control, water pressure regulator, generator if not boondocking, possibly solar panels). I am sure that this time next week I will have 101 more questions and I will be either happy and proud or dealing with the worst type of buyers remorse, so until then. Glad to be a part of this forum and I look forward to hearing all your stories, advice, criticism and any other type of feedback.
