RV enthusiasts of all sizes (I call them explorers because that’s truly what they are) have some uphill challenges. The MSNBC.com article written by Roland Jones highlights both increasing fuel prices as well as financing struggles. If you missed it, here is the full article.

For many 21st century explorers, all of these challenges are countered by the freedom to find adventure where we find ourselves. The spirit of exploration an RV provides is hard to match. Adventure needn’t be extreme, it just needs to be ours and when you grab the opportunity to wake up and explore at your own level, your own pace and your own schedule, the uphills are just another part of the adventure. My mobile base camp, the Lance Camper 1181 on a Ford F350 Super Duty is my “modern-day covered wagon” to quote Stewart Schaffer of Lazy Days RV center in Florida in the above MSNBC.com article. With everything going on in the world today, a “little bit of breathtaking” (as I call it) is the perfect prescription and today’s explorers know how to find it.
