Any Webmasters that live the RV'ing Lifestyle? - GoFuckYourself.com

I'm thinking about buying an RV. I want to spend the next few years on the road around the southern and western part of the US. But my problem lies in that I will need high speed access.

I'm COMPLETELY ignorant of the RV lifestyle but I do know that I want an RV.

What is the feasibility of having an RV and being on the road for 4-6 months and having access to some sort of high speed internet? Do they offer shit like cable and DSL at RV parks? Would I need to invest in a satellite connection? If I do get a satellite connection, what are the chances of it working in a vehicle that moves frequently? Do they have phone lines that a temporary visitor could hook up in an RV park so that I could use DSL if necessary?

Or should I just chuck it and drive my car and stay in a hotel that offers high speed access everywhere I go? That is kind of cheesy to me.

If you're in bigger cities (which I wouldnt want to be in a RV), you can always get on wifi hot spots. As for RV parks with broadband, no clue.

Here's a good read:

That could be a problem. Rv lifestyle looks cool. You always have all your shit with you everywere you go.

It can be done. Just park at wifi hot spots like Starbucks to check your email/get some work done/upload files. Then go back to the RV, hit the road, then go to the next Hot Spot.
