You long for a vacation and keep postponing it watching the increase
price rise of crude oil. But you can have the cake and eat it too, when
you decide to choose RV to your vacation. It is highly economical.
Recent survey held by The Recreational Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA),
along with PKF consulting, international travel and tourism consultation
firm make a survey on the evaluation of the comparison of RV and other
well known means of transportation. The result says that a typical RV
vacation family reduces the cost up to 26 to 74% than using a personal
vehicle, commercial airline or cruise.
The study included all the basic expenses that would occur on the trips
and to several destinations. The destinations were the Grand Canyon, Orlando;
Cape Cod, Napa, Calif.; and Alaska. PKF were shrewd to select different
types of RVs., especially preferred by families for their vacation, like,
a folding camping trailer, conventional travel trailer, and motor home
in Type C cadre.
Mr. Kannan Sankaran, PKF’s leading researcher opines that RV trips are
more economical regardless of duration, distance traveled, or any region
covered. The fluctuations in the fuel price do not affect a vacation,
as it is the only expense that the family is going to spend.
It is for sure that fuel price is going to get tripled from now and the
vacation for a family is going to be increased, naturally. The fact is
when you use a motor him; you can stay away from hotels, to stay and to
eat. This would save a considerable amount of your money, when you opt
for RV.
It is said, from the study, when you make a trip from Orlando to Atlanta,
the savings for a family of four would be 53% or $1,658. When you take
RV, you can save $27 in campgrounds and $125 when you avoid flying, renting
transport, stay, eating in restaurants and this is marked per night.
When you compare the expenses spent for a family on a week long vacation,
towing a travel trailer starting from Salt Lake City, Utah to the Grand
Canyon. It was $2,820, that is to say, 70% savings.
The short trips, say a 3 day vacation from Pittsburgh to Lancaster would
make $271 less when you use RV than the other means of transport. $1,049
or 62.2% more if you make your vacation with air travel;
Apart from economical view, you have the advantage of traveling whenever
you wished; you can stop along the way to enjoy sightseeing. RVing is
the best if you want to avoid the stress on flight delays, expensive food,
long lines, luggage missing, and costly hotel rooms. You can have a longer
vacation with your budget while using RV.
