"Will it be a good investment to get a RV camper for road trips?"

An RV camper is never a good investment. The quality started going down in the 1980s.

Before going the RV route, rent one for a weekend and go camping.

My parents started a RV club, the Happy Hitchers back in 1974. By the early 80s the club grew too large and began building their own campgrounds.

Was becoming a logistical nightmare every winter reserving campgrounds for over 40 RVs and motorhomes for the upcoming summer.
 
This is one of the two campgrounds the Happy Hitchers built.

A farmer in our RV club donated the land.

Another young member lived in his trailer year around. He was the caretaker of a piece of land, with some improvements.

I was just a kid. Can remember our family's RV camping there. Nothing but land, woods, electricity, and a water spigot.


Last time I visited, same caretaker, forty years, going strong.

And living in a better trailer.

Yeah I hear RV's lose their value pretty quick, that's why i am looking a lot more into it, i don't want it to be one of those decisions that i take and later regret it, so I am taking my time, actually i am glad my car didn't have the tow package, that gives me time to think this through and do more research, because I would have to either install a tow package to be able to pull a upto 2000lb camper or I would get a different car that allows me to pull a 3000-3500 camper.
 
Let's start from the beginning.

As I understand it, you want to travel next year in a RV.

Will you be taking time off, or be working?

Others traveling with you?

What do you want to see?

So Plan is to take a Trip to Yellow Stone or Glacier National Park or Dinosaur National Park, but I am trying to make it a 2 week road trip, I could fly there then rent a RV and camp, but I am kinda guy who enjoy the Journey more than the destination.

I will be working, so I will be taking a 2 week off from work, unfortunately they don't let us work from home even though we technically can.

As of now, no I will be traveling alone.

Idea is to see the whole USA, but for now I am craving that region of CO/UT/OR/ID i love mountains/rivers/lakes, i invest in my camera so i can persue my hobby. But hotels in that area is expensive, @Oscar if he lives in Colorado knows that even a small decent cabin near good sites can cost 150+ per night, Idaho and Oregon is ever worse. So RV's can save up some of the money, not just living but also food situation, rather than looking for meals outside, I can bring some Halal food/Ramen with me that will cut cost of food.

that's the general idea so far.

Thank you.

You have two weeks. You like the mountains, I do too.

My advice is to consider the Smoky Mountains.

You will loose a day or two getting out West, when you could be driving the Blue Ridge Parkway.

@Starlord , here you go! The ultimate way to RV:

I happened to be out running errands this morning and needed to stop by the grocery store. Saw this in the parking lot. Tow vehicle is a BMW SUV. Obviously it's been rode a little hard. But check out the trailer setup.

I suspect this may be a traveling drug dealer or perhaps an accountant. I counted no less than 4 security cameras plus there are motion detectors on the windows.

Nope. Ultimate way to RV is to make it a rolling meth lab.

Facts.
