1. Freedom
What type of life do you want to live? What history do you want to experience? If you could go anywhere in the country, where would you go? With RVing you have the ultimate freedom to live where and how you want.

2. Time in Nature

3. No Lawn to Mow
The joys of doing lawn work are endless...wait, no they aren't. Wouldn't you rather be relaxing under your awning with a cold drink overlooking the mountains?

It's like having your own gardener, without having to cut them a check. Unless you are like the guy in the picture below who brings his lawn mower with him, you don't have to worry about it!
