1. RV For Two ? As strange as it sounds, it is important to use common sense when renting or buying an RV. Specifically, how many people do you foresee using it? If the number is five, get an RV that can handle that number comfortably!

2. RVs and Wind Warnings ? If wind warnings are being given for an area you are in, do not disregard them. The sides of your vehicle are big flat spaces and the wind will hit them will all their power. Crashing isn't worth it.

3. RV Drivers License ? For years, advocates have proposed the idea of requiring special drivers licenses for people driving RVs. As of January 2007, no such requirement exists nor is any legislation pending.

4. Your RV Profile ? When looking at RV models, consider how you are going to use them. If you plan to stay in luxury resorts, you are going to need one type of model. If you plan to drive out into the middle of Alaska for hunting, you need a different type.

5. Mexico Parking Lots ? If you are cruising Mexico, leaving your RV in a lot can be risky. Make sure to tip the person controlling the lot a few dollars. Doing so usually prevents problems.

6. RV Clearance and Bridges ? Before you get out on the road, know the clearance of your RV. This particularly true if you rent. Convertible RVs are not very popular.

7. RV Exhaust Brakes ? Given the weight of an RV, maintaining your breaks can be costly. One step you can take to reduce the wear and tear is to use RV exhaust brakes when towing extra weight such as a dolly.

8. RV Internet Shopping ? Before you ever go to a dealer, you should go RV internet shopping. Look at the various models and prices to figure out what you like and can afford without suffering under the pressure of a salesman.

9. RV Purchase Budget ? If you have enough money to buy an RV, you already know about handling money. In this case, you need to set an RV purchase budget. Know what you can spend and stick to it! Don't overspend because you fall in love with a model.

10. RVs in Big Cities ? In general, you should avoid trying to drive in big cities, particularly in congested areas such as downtown. Use your common sense. Do you really think a 30 footer is going to do well?

An RV is a great investment in a good time. What other option do you have for just spontaneously jumping in and going? Yep, you can do it in a car, but man it gets crowded and uncomfortable.
