How often do you plan to use your new RV?
How often do you use your RV or plan to use an RV after you buy it? A couple of weeks a year? A few months? Probably not surprising to you, there are hundreds of thousands of RVers who live all the time in their RVs, or at least most of the time. Nobody knows how many people live full-time in RVs. It could be a million or more.
Spare tires for your RV?
It's not the most pleasant thought: Having a flat tire on your rig. And many new RVers are surprised when they find a lot of motorhomes don't even have a spare tire. What's going on here? We don't spare the details on RV spares.
Keep an eye on RV tires
Keeping up with the tires on your RV is critical: Blow a tire on your motorhome, you could find yourself in the ditch--or worse. Don't keep up with tire pressure, you'll increase your fuel purchase costs, and pay for prematurely worn out tires. But taking care of your RV tires doesn't take a lot of time and effort--just regularity.


Dealing with formaldehyde in a new RV
If you buy a new or nearly new RV, you may find yourself troubled by formaldehyde gas.

If formaldehyde is a problem, here are some suggestions for dealing with it.


What's the difference between motorhome "classes"?
Folks new to the motorhome world are oftentimes confused by the jargon. "Class A" motorhome? "Class C" motorhome? Van campers? Isn't there some way to keep RV shopping simple? Let's try and demystify the "types" or "classes" of motorhomes.


"Flag" your RV to remind yourself of dangerous conditions
Cords, hoses, antennas, even dogs. Forget to take care of them before you pull your rig out can lead to an RV disaster. Here are a couple of tips to help reduce the dangers.


Is a pop-up RV for you?
Many former tent campers transition to RVs by way of a "pop up camper." You may hear them referred to as "tent campers" or "fold out campers," but the concept is generally the same: A small, low profile trailer, that once at camp, expands and unfolds, often by using canvas sides.Is a pop-up for you? Like all other RVs, pop-ups have their advantages and disadvantages to be weighed and compared to see what fits you best.
