    I kind of just did this. Bought an rv in 2013. Just moved into it for the summer while I'm traveling. It has a very powerful generator - I could power a large party all night if I wanted. I can hook up my flash dryer screen printing (has an outdoor outlet). I've got a shower, heat, air conditioning, full kitchen including a confection oven. It actually sleeps 7 people (one queen bed, one full bed, one full sized bunk and one single bed) but right now is just me and my boyfriend. My workspace is more comfortable than what I had at home.
