This article is about what itself describes as "a loose term" referring to a subset of RVers. It is completely OR with only three somewhat relevant external links and is linked by only four articles. It would be best if it were covered in just a few sentences in the Recreational_vehicle#RV_lifestyle section. 69.255.170.55 (talk) 00:37, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep/Merge - I added three books to the article, with "Fulltiming" or "Full Time" in their title, with reference to RV'ing. So, it's a real thing, which may merit its own article, or at least a substantial section if merged. --Lexein (talk) 02:17, 26 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep - No valid rationale for deletion has been stated per WP:DEL-REASON. This topic has clearly received significant coverage in reliable sources.
