Rising Cost Of Fuel, Can You Afford An RV

Rising Cost Of Fuel, Can You Afford An RV

Jay Aydelotte

With the climbing prices of fuel, how do you afford to use your recreational vehicle? Since the price of fuel affects pretty much everything that we do, it stands to reason that the cost of camping is feeling the affects of inflation also. Some campers are spacing their trips out, while others are camping closer to home, the fact is that most people that enjoy camping are still finding a way to enjoy their RV. Since the majority of RV’s are pull behind trailers and not motor homes, it does not cause a major hardship to leave it parked in the driveway a little more than in past years. I think that fact will probably help pull behind trailer sales and hurt the sales of motor homes.

One positive for RV buyers is that the price of motor homes is going down almost daily as the fuel cost keep rising. If you are in the market for a used motor home, I would suggest that you don’t get in a big hurry, take your time and shop around for the best deal. The market is being flooded with used motor homes from the really luxurious to the less expensive class C motor homes. As long as the supply is greater than the demand, the prices will continue to come down, so it is definitely a buyers market. If you are trying to sell a motor home, I would suggest that you advertise it on as many web sites as possible, and put the price as low as you can afford to go, in hopes of selling it before the price drops even further.

One positive that appears to be happening is that some people are selling their big motor homes and buying a smaller, more economical one to drive. That will help the RV industry by helping to keep the sales up of the smaller, more economical motor homes. They will probably take a loss on the sale of the big motor home and who ever buys it will probably get a really good deal. If you are in the market for a luxury motor coach, the real deals are just starting to surface. I really think there will be even better deals in the next six to twelve months, so unless you are in a really big hurry, don’t jump unless you find a really good deal on exactly what you are looking for.

If you have a recreational vehicle, you can still use it, just plan to camp at places closer to home. It might surprise you just how much fun you can have in a campground just 20 miles from home, and the fuel cost will be almost nothing. If you have already made the investment, and are making the monthly payment, why not get a little pleasure out of it.
