Popular with road trippers and frequent domestic travelers, motor homes usually include a kitchenette, bathroom, sleeping areas, living areas, and amenities that make the vehicle a complete mini-home. Designed to be transportable, most motor homes possess diesel engines for powerful yet affordable capabilities. Interiors can range from economical to luxury, putting motor homes well within anyone's reach.

You may want to avoid a site where the sun will be beating down on your patio area, just when you want to be out enjoying the late afternoon and evening.

RVing is a great way for families to vacation and even in times of higher fuel prices, a family of four traveling by RV can spend 26 to 74 percent less over other modes of travel. And there’s no substitute for the great family memories that come from vacationing in an RV." [quote from RVIA President Richard Coon]
Wondering how sales of RV's are? More RVs were shipped in the first nine months of 2006 than in the first three quarters of any year since 1974.
Growth rates in the RV marketplace are likely to continue in the long-term and projections show the number of RV owning households will rise to 8.2 percent by 2010.
