Hope everyone had a safe 4th of July weekend. I took a bus road trip and saw quite a few RV dealers in Illinois and Wisconsin and not that many on the road.

For inexpensive overall travel an RV would be a good way for a group to see the country. At a couple of places where we stopped there was parking available for RV and some pretty nice looking ones (from the outside) as well.

Taking an RV for a vacation would work but you must remember that you have to do the cleaning, some one has to drive and in order to save, you also need to do the cooking as well. If  that isn’t something you are interested in, then consider another type of vacation.

For some taking a vacation does not include the same things you have to do at home : cooking, cleaning and driving. Although you can control what you eat when you eat and if you have ever been to a not-so-clean rest stop, you will appreciate knowing about the cleanliness of the facilities.

Seeing the open road seems great but if you are thinking of seeing an urban area for vacation you may not need an RV. An RV vacation is for the open road, wide spaces and less congested areas. Then during the highways in the cities, you see very few RVs.

An RV offers the opportunity to see what you want, but there is still gas, food and the driving to consider. Plus,  you need to find where RV parks or places where you can park your RV are located.

Vacation to me spells hotel, doesn’t include driving and not having to cook.
