First I want to go over a few key points on why I want to do this monthly cost review.
- I have not found any Full-Time RV living cost break downs
- Keep me accountable
- Track my true RV costs
- Show others it might be an option to not only accelerate their FIRE journey but build a more intentional lifestyle.
True Costs
- RV Payment $209 (also put $300 toward the principle)
- Truck Payment $89
- RV Insurance Payment $0
- No insurance costs because I paid for the next 12 months in December’s update.
- Truck Insurance $0
- No insurance costs because I paid for the next 6 months in June’s update.
- Campground Site $1,640
- They have not charged us yet so this means I will be paying more on next month’s update.
- Propane $0
- Gas $0
- Misc $23
- These were just a few items we bought on Amazon to fix a few small things on the RV.
Total – $1,961
You can find a list of all the RV gear we love here. Let’s not forget our list of RV maintenance supplies here.
RV Lifestyle Thoughts
I was thinking August was going to be a brutal month for expenses because we paid for more than 30 days at our current RV park. Yet it’s less than $2,000 all in all. It’s crazy how cheap this lifestyle is even living on the beach in a multi-million dollar community in San Diego.
I’m still enjoying the hell out of this lifestyle and imagine I would enjoy it even more If I was retired and could just go adventure around the United States. That would be an epic adventure. We will see what my future has waiting for me. I really should take more pictures!!!
In case you missed it here is last month’s break down. Keep on the journey and path!
