After months of silence, we're finally back behind the microphones with some major life updates that have completely transformed our approach to RV living. The biggest news? We've sold our massive Alliance Valor, purchased a home base, and downsized to a more nimble Alliance Delta 252RL travel trailer under 30 feet.
This shift wasn't a snap decision. It evolved gradually as we weathered both literal and figurative storms in our full-time RV journey. Texas ice and scorching summer heat tested our resolve, while work commitments kept us closer to "home" than we'd initially planned. The limitations of traveling in such a large rig became increasingly apparent - we couldn't fit in most state parks and national parks, couldn't easily navigate certain areas, and Lauren wasn't comfortable driving our beast of an RV. Those 12-hour travel days left us exhausted in ways they don't now with our smaller setup.
Let's bust a common myth: RV life isn't automatically cheaper than traditional housing. For us, costs were roughly equivalent, though this varies widely depending on individual circumstances and choices. We also couldn't ignore the financial reality that while our RV was constantly depreciating, real estate typically appreciates over time. This stability factor, combined with increased travel flexibility, ultimately guided our decision.
Don't worry - we're not abandoning RV adventures! With seven trips already planned (including three weeks in Florida and appearances at the Tampa RV show), we're simply embracing a "weekend warrior" approach that offers the best of both worlds. Our new dedicated podcast studio means more consistent content, guest appearances, and exciting new segments coming your way. If you have questions you'd like us to answer in future episodes, send them our way through your favorite podcast platform.
