RV, SETUP & VEHICLES
If you’re new to RVing, just considering the wide variety of RV types, shapes and sizes can be overwhelming! You can start by looking at the different types available and the pros and cons of each to narrow down to your preferred type of RV. Also think about what kind of vehicles you like to drive and what you may need for the kind of lifestyle you’re planning. And if you plan to tow a vehicle, consider what you like exploring in, as this comes into play when considering the various towing methods. What’s right for us won’t be right for everyone – every RVer is unique, so take the time to think about what kinds of activities and driving you prefer to help narrow down to the right RV setup for you. We’ve shared some of our thought processes below to get you started.
