  Here are some basic questions Ive been asked  by new Rvr's and current Rv owners, and here are some helpful tips.
 

Question?

 -Why would I want a motorhome over a trailer?
 

 Answer!

 Most people who have a motorhome eventually will tow a car of some sort behind it. But say you're out on a road in the middle of nowhere on your way to your dry camping destination and your motorhome runs out of gas or breaks down, at least you still have your car to get somewhere safe and get help. Now if you're towing a trailer and your truck breaks down or runs out of gas what do you do? Wait for a stranger to pull over and Do what? give you a ride? Plus Iv'e never seen AAA tow a truck and a trailer. Or you leave whoever your with to watch your stuff in the trailor on the side of the road. I dont know, I guess if your camping in spots that are in the city you woud be ok, just something to think about! Or picture this! Your in Napa valley and you engage in one of those fun wine tours, and by the third winery your feeling pretty good and then you buy a couple bottles for the road. Ok the next day your not feeling 100 % and you have plans to drive to Sonoma to do it again ha ha! Well the person your traveling with can drive you to the next place. While the're driving your taking a nap in the bed, you have the restroom right there and when you feel better you can get up and cook up a quesadilla and make a bloody mary and wala! Your ready for round 2. So typically motorhomes are designed with bigger than normal gas tanks for longer travel without having to stop so often which is nice. Your not having to pull over so you can get something out of the fridge if your towing a trailer.  A lot of RVrs that currently camp with a trailer say that there tired setting up  and disconnecting everything everytime they want to explore a new destination, plus the vacation doesn't start till you get there.  With the motorhome you just put in the slides, fill up the fridge. Plus you can travel with more people in the motorhome. And the vacation starts as soon as you turn the key!

 

• Question? -What kind of vehicle can I tow with the motorhome?

• Answer!

• You want to tow with all four tires on the ground, the best option is a front wheel drive manual transmission, but your  owners manual will tell you how your vehicle is capable of being towed. If not there's other options such as a car dolly and flatbed or modifying a  rear transmission with an auxiliary hydraulic pump to keep it cool here's a link to  some more info I found helpful.

• Question?

• - When is the best time to buy an RV?

• Answer!

•  - The best deals to be had is when you're ready to buy! If your not ready to buy they couldnt sell you golden charriots for a penny.  A great deal is only a perception, you never know what a dealer can do or what modivates them to make the deals they make until you sit down with a salesman and show motivation to buy and make an offer on a coach you're happy with.

• Question?

• - I can't buy now because I'm retiring in two years

• Answer!

•  - Keep in mind if you were going to finance, achieving the best interest rates for yourself is when you're still employed,  but not in all cases of course. Think about it though, wouldn't it be nice if you could take some weekend getaways to the beach or go hang out at the river around some peace and quiet away from the city to revive yourself for the coming work week? Or even take some fun coastal drives with some picnic food.  I always encourage my clients, that if you can afford it what are you waiting for? Go while your health is at its best so you have the energy to enjoy the  freedom, nature, fresh air and memories camping and rving has to offer.

• Question? 

• - Why would I want  Class C over a Class A or vice versa?

•  Answer!

•  - Class C offers a huge overhead bed and can be used as an additional sleeping area, storage, or even blocking the sun while you're driving. Plus you have your own doors to exit or enter. Feels like driving a van, also has factory  front crash ratings with airbags.

•   Wow! that sounds great why would I want to class A

•  Class A serves well for longer camping experiences, typically offering bigger chassis for comfort travel and bigger holding tanks for a longer stay, you'll mostly always get more storage but not always. You get a walk around bed and more interior space inside you sit above the view of traffic for great visibility. Let's say  you are driving in freeway traffic and there's road debree you'll be able to spot that way before because your vision sits above most of the traffic.

• Question?

•  - Why would I want to class B?

• Answer!

•  - Most class Bs are designed for a quick travel, some are used for daily drivers, some you can park on the street. They offer great gas mileage (in the RV world anyway) and you typically use it more often. Once you get used to the limited space that they offer, some say it's the coolest thing they've ever owned.

• Question?

• People are telling me that I should buy a diesel pusher

•  Answer!

•  - First of all everybody has a budget for an Rv. Whether you're a millionaire or not diesel is more expensive but like buying a Kia or an Audi they're both nice cars but the Audi has extremely different ride. Well so does the diesel, which offers an extremely heavy duty build starting with the chassis, the air brakes and the airbag suspension and the engines are built to travel 500,000 to a Million miles. Yes the ride is softer quieter and offers great torque for towing but it may not be the easiest coach to travel anywhere you want to go. Depending on what size you get you'll want to map out your travel routes.
