We’ve Spent HOW MUCH? Our 8 Month RV Trip Costs At The Halfway Point

Have you ever wondered about the cost of RV living full time? Or maybe you're researching RV living for beginners and asking yourself, how much does it cost to RV full time? In this video, I'm pulling back the curtain and sharing every major expense from the first four months of our eight-month RV adventure. From campground fees and diesel fuel to groceries, entertainment, Starlink, maintenance, and even the condo expenses we're still paying back home, you'll see exactly what our RV life costs look like. This isn't a "live on $500 a month" video or a guide to extreme budget travel. We travel comfortably, book campgrounds in advance, enjoy bucket list experiences, and live what I'd consider a pretty normal middle-class lifestyle. My goal is simply to share real numbers so you can better plan your own RV journey. Whether you're dreaming about full-time RV living, planning extended trips, or just curious what life on the road actually costs in 2026, I hope this breakdown gives you realistic expectations. 🔍 What I'm talking about: 🔍 • Our total RV expenses after 137 nights on the road • Campground costs and our average nightly rate • Fuel, groceries, dining out, Starlink, and entertainment • Truck and RV maintenance expenses • The hidden costs of keeping a home while traveling • Annual expenses many RVers forget to budget for • Our final daily number and why it surprised me (Some links in this description are affiliate links, which means I may earn a small commission if you click and make a purchase, at no extra cost to you.) ⭐ Get one FREE month of Starlink: ⭐ https://starlink.com/residential?refe... 🧶 Cast on your next adventure with The Wandering Hat Library, featuring every current hat pattern plus all future additions at no extra cost! ➡️   / 2196584   📬🌎 Become a Patreon member and get a handwritten postcard from me every month, sent from wherever I’m traveling in the world! ➡️   / membership   ChiaoGoo 4 inch Tips Complete Set: https://amzn.to/4w43yEh (This is my go-to needle set that I absolutely love and they go EVERYWHERE with me!) ⏱️ CHAPTERS ⏱️ 00:00 – Introduction 01:06 – RV Costs And Expenses 06:32 – RV Parks – Our Biggest Expense 09:19 – Condo Expenses (Even When We Aren’t Even Home) 11:34 – Expenses I Am Not Factoring In 13:03 – Yearly Expenses We Are Paying 14:21 – A Few Things About Our Finances You Need To Know 14:59 – How Much Part-Time RVing Costs Us: The Final Numbers 15:39 – Wrap Up – You Can Do This For Cheaper, But These Are Our Expenses 16:10 – If You Have Questions – Leave Them In The Comments! 16:43 – Thank You For Watching – Don’t Forget To Subscribe! 17:07 – No Tip, Just Me Knitting In Iceland ⭐️ RV Travel Tip: ⭐️ The best RV upgrades aren't always the expensive ones.
