www.sys2.com TEST DRIVE Ease into the RV lifestyle with a rental unit Rental companies give inexperienced drivers tips and test drives before letting you head out onto the open road. With automatic transmissions, power brakes and steering, RV’s are easier to drive than you might think. Before you rent, check with your automobile insurance carrier to see if the rental RV is covered under your current policy or if additional coverage should be purchased from the rental agency. Depending upon the season, motorhomes rent from $70 to $170 per day and truck campers and travel trailers average $50 to $120 per day. Remember, that fee includes your transportation, sleeping accommodations and a kitchen that gives you the option of reducing your meal expenses. For a listing of local and national RV rental locations, contact the RV Rental Association at (703) 591-7130, or go on the RVRA Web site at www.rvra.org. The Web site provides comprehensive information about member locations throughout the United States and Canada. For more information, check the yellow pages of your local phone directory. Look under the heading of “Recreation(al) Vehicles: Renting and Leasing” or check with a local RV dealer.

Rentals also give prospective buyers the opportunity to try various types of RV’s and learn from actual experience which one is best suited to their particular needs. More than 400 national rental chain outlets and local RV dealerships offer state-of-the-art, late-model-year vehicles for rent. Most rental sites offer fleets of five to 50 vehicles and a growing number of campgrounds offer on-site rentals as well. A valid driver’s license and proof of age are required by all rental agencies. Minimum age of driver varies with each rental location, so check before renting if you have any doubts. frvta.org 65 http://www.rvra.org http://www.frvta.org
