Why Rent a Motorhome or RV? |
 January of 2020 Features: A Full-time Life
"We've always loved to travel and after we retired in 1997 we bought a fifth-wheel trailer and a truck to haul it with and took off to see more of our country. We loved the traveling life and soon sold our home and most of our belongings. Some people use their RVs when they're on vacation, some live in them part of the time (usually during the winter, when they go south to escape the cold) but we were "full-timers" with no other home for over ten years. We have visited 48 of the 50 states on our RVing adventures. (Click on this page.) We had many wonderful experiences and met many great people people as full-timers, but change is inevitable. On our first visit to Florida we sort of accidentally fell in love with the RV Park and the area where we were staying. It was too far to think about towing the RV back and forth every year, and anyway it was about time to find a more permanent winter home. At the end of that first season, we bought our "Canal Cottage" and since 2009 we have spent our winters in the sunshine state. Every spring we travel back to Oregon, which is once again our official home, and still enjoy exploring while living on both coasts and traveling between them. We're no longer on the road full-time, but we still adhere to our Full-Time philosophy. We try every day to enjoy the voyage as well as the destination."

There are many reasons why renting a motorhome instead of  purchasing may be a good solution. For the individual who has limited vacation time, a short term vacation on wheels without the long term costs associated with rv ownership may be the best option. The outright costs associated with buying an rv from a dealer include; licensing fees, insurance, storage and ongoing maintenance. Couple these costs with a relatively quick depreciation rate and the motorhome rental option begins to look better by the moment.
Another reason to rent an rv is for first time buyers. Try before you buy. You may not always be able to rent the exact model rv you wish to purchase but you will be able to find out the things you must have and those you can live without. One can also get an overall sense of their comfort level driving, parking and living in an rv for a time.

Choosing an insurance company for your rv may seem like a difficult and confusing task but done correctly it will save you money and many headaches. Insurance coverage for RV's vary greatly in terms of items covered and in cost, so both aspects must be taken into consideration. What and how much is covered is a basic question, a good starting point is to look for companies which offer total loss replacement, purchase price guarantee, custom equipment coverage, awning replacement coverage, diminishing deductibles, full-timers liability coverage, vacation liability, emergency expense coverage and personal effects (contents) coverage.
You can save hundreds of dollars a year on motorhomes by requesting and comparing quotes from many companies. With most of the companies now offering online quotes, you may now compare many rv insurance companies with just a few clicks and a bit of time. Once you have all the quotes in front of you just compare coverage's based on your needs and budget. If you have any questions make sure to contact the provider to clarify them for you and always get it in writing. Our RV Insurance page lists many companies to begin your search. |
