  •        Beginners Guide to RVing.   Good advice and information for new RVers or others thinking of taking up the RV lifestyle.


  •        Buying an RV:   Practical pointers from the Better Business Bureau. The info here is brief, but it's from as good a source as you'll find. Well worth a look if you're about to buy an RV.


  •        Used-RV Checklist.   Ready to buy an RV? Getting a high-quality used one can be hugely economical! Why chuck tens of thousands of dollars of your hard-earned money right into the Depreciation Dumpster, over just the first year of ownership, as you would surely do -- guaranteed!! -- if you were to buy a brand-new one? You might as well just take all your cash out and burn it!  BUT – buying a used RV is a good strategy only if you make sure beforehand that the coach or trailer that you're buying is problem-free, or close to it. This Used RV Checklist can enable you to accomplish just that!


  •        RV Club.   A highly-informative site for new RVers and seasoned full-timers. And – they are linked with many other sites of related interest.


  •        How heavy an RV can you tow?   Whether you already have a vehicle or are planning to buy one, here's how much the tow vehicle can safely pull.


  •        Earn $45,000-60,000/Year by Full-Time Driving Brand-New RVs and Specialty Vehicles from Factories to Dealerships. (Very few are trucked, the way cars are.) This is probably the world's greatest and most-accessible travel job. It's stress-free, highly-enjoyable, and there's no upper age limit. One-third of the 100,000 people doing this job are in the age group 65-80+!  Couples make up 40% of the workforce, and the full-time couples earn up to $80,000 a year.


  •        Flying J Travel Plaza Locations.   Right from the get-go, RVers need to know that they can often get a great night's sleep in the coach or trailer without hooking up – for free! And do so right next to all the facilities they need: Phones, private showers, convenience and parts store, video store, bookstore, and restaurant. With 115 locations across the USA and growing, Flying J Travel Plazas have become a favorite of RVers and truckers alike... especially the Road Rats, who almost never use campgrounds when making their trips! Single Road Rats who work full-time often earn $50,000 or more a year, while couples can reach $80,000 or more. But everyone loves to save money! (By the way, even though more than 100,000 active Road Rats are working at this Moment, most people still have no idea that this fabulous drive-RVs-for-pay job exists!

This site tells it like it is -- learn the top dealer scams and how to run a lemon check. Read honest car reviews. Much of this info applies to buying an RV as well.

  •        AVOID Dealership Scams!   Unfortunately, it's not a perfect world, and some of the most adept con artists in society can be found at vehicle dealerships.  Studying this page provides you with a suit of armor against their ten most-employed cons and scams.  If a dealer or salesperson tries any of these on you, just run -- don't walk! -- away.
