Well, you certainly are in for a treat! This country has much to offer for the RV traveler.
Of course, wisdom is going to be your best defense. We do live in a troubled world, and the two of you would be wise to consider safety.
That being said, you should read as many articles, books, etc. about being on the road. Just because you can survive on the road doesn't mean you'll enjoy it. So, careful planning is in order.
Go to the FAQ section of this site for "newbie" information and traveling costs.

Make sure you have a cell phone. Make sure you tell people where you are each day. Make sure you have a route planned (which doesn't mean you can't revise it as you go), so that you will be missed if something were to happen.
You may want to rent an RV for a week, or borrow one, to see if you can live in close quarters with someone. The worst thing to do is spend all the money first, only to find out that you can be friends, but only if your not living in an RV!
Calculate your expenses wisely, and then double check them with someone else.
Hope this ranting helps...
