Why Rent a Motorhome or RV? |
 December of 2020 Features: Geogypsy
"Hi, my name is Gaelyn, the Geogypsy,a boomer, female eco-traveler sharing stories and photos of a diverse world. I started exploring US National Parks in 1977 and 20 years later became a Park Ranger. I spent the next 20 years working in various national parks. During the winter I travel to other National Parks and focus on learning about the natural and cultural history of the places I visit. Every world-wide designated landscape and historic site within the systems of preservation has a unique story about people and place. I hope sharing these stories encourages you to connect with the world. I've been journaling all my life, writing is a passion. I began blogging in 2008 to discipline myself to write every day, or almost. At first I was unsure about putting myself out into the cyber-world, would anybody really care. Turns out people are interested in the places I travel to, hike, photograph and share. I've met so many wonderful people blogging, and some of them in real life too. That's the short story. To discover more about my past and how my journey brought me to where I am today check out my Herstory." Continue reading the blog at the link above.

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. |
