After making their RV purchase, they can again visit the most comprehensive RV consumer website online, to find places to explore in their state, their region and nationwide. "Most RV consumers are still out their ready to purchase an RV", says Dan Ball, RV Advertising and Marketing professional from DP Ball Advertising. "You simply have to reach them. There is no doubt that fuel costs may hinder driving from dealership to dealership to tour each motorhome, travel trailer or fifth wheel you are interested in, but searching online has eliminated that factor. Once the consumer finds the right RV they can send inquiries to dealers in their area, and complete most of the process online. When they get that new RV they may choose to stay closer to home while gas prices are high, but the basic experience is the same whether you are 10 miles from home, or 1,000 miles from home.

“Regardless of gas prices, RV owners still get a bigger bang for their buck when compared to other types of vacations,” says Richard Coon, president, Recreation Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA). “Affordability is a key reason why RV travel appeals so much to families.” Studies show that a family of four traveling from Cleveland, OH to Louisville, KY for ten days with their camping trailer in tow, staying in campgrounds averaging $25 per night would save 54 percent, or $1,696 over the same trip taken by car, staying in hotels averaging $120 per night and eating in restaurants. And, this even factors in the cost of ownership. Taking the same vacation by motorhome would save $974, or 34 percent, over going by car.
