Now in its 27th year, the RV Show has grown into one of the largest annual events at

the Spokane Fair and Expo Center. It now fi lls all of the buildings, and hundreds more RVs also can be found outside. It’s now considered one of the largest and most popular shows in the Western U.S.

HERE’S SOME INTERESTING HIGHLIGHTS OVER THE YEARS:

■ 1988 Leo Chaven launched the RV Show in one small building at the Spokane Interstate Fair. Attendance was low, as was support from dealers, and all the RVs on display were tightly wedged into a small spot.

■ 1992 Steve Cody took over the show’s reins when Chaven retired. Though he had never put on a show like this before, he was familiar with it. About 2,500 people attended and exhibit space grew to 45,000 square feet.

■ 1996 Cody created his fi rst waiting list for dealers and other exhibitors. A major snowstorm also hit that weekend, and a tunnel was built to connect the buildings. More than 7,000 people still braved the elements, and dealers reported similar strong sales. Jim Cotter also becomes a partner this year.

■ 1999 Show expands to Ag buildings A and B.

■ 2000 This year saw the arrival of the World’s Largest RV, a four-story rig with a hot tub, putting green, sun deck, three

full bedrooms with king-sized beds, 1.5 bathrooms and a built-in barbecue.

■ 2001 Show expands to Bay 4.■ 2003 RV fans were given

special free early-bird entry in order to come browse and then be in time for kick-off at the Super Bowl. The Spokesman-Review RV columnist Julianne Craine was the featured speaker.

■ 2006 Show expands into Ag building C. That year also saw the arrival of the Cash Machine, in which everyone who buys an RV at the show gets to stand for 30 seconds to try catch whirling money.

■ 2008 Show expands to Ag building D.

■ 2012 More than 11,000 people attend to check out six dealers and 40 vendors.

■ 2013 The show celebrates its 25th anniversary with record crowds and record sales.

■ 2014 More than 13,000 people attend the show.

■ 2015 Show expands to Multi Purpose A building, connecting tents and creating more outside space.

2015 RV SHOW

RV HISTORY

Americans, it seems, have been destined to be RVers since the earliest days that explorers set foot on this continent.

Adventurers at heart, settlers came in search of freedom and opportunities to grow and discover. And discover they did – fi rst by ship, then by horse, in groups by Conestoga wagon trains and, ultimately, by motorized vehicles that ushered in the RVs of today.

THE BIRTH OF THE RV INDUSTRYA century ago, the popularization of the automo-

bile, improving roads and America’s passion for ex-ploration gave rise to mass-produced, manufactured recreation vehicles, and the RV industry was born.In 1910, there were few gas stations, few paved roads and no highway system. But there were RVs.

1910 is the year that America’s leading RV histori-ans – David Woodworth, Al Hesselbart and Roger White – cite as the beginning of what has become the modern RV industry.

1910“The fi rst motorized campers were built in 1910,”

says Woodworth, a preeminent collector of early RVs and RV camping memorabilia. “Before then, people camped in private rail cars that were pulled to sidings along train routes. The year 1910 brought a new freedom to people who didn’t want to be limited by the rail system. RVs allowed them to go where they wanted, when they wanted.”

Hesselbart, archivist for the RV/MH Heritage Museum in Elkhart, Indiana, also pinpoints 1910 as the birth of the RV industry. “Camping has been around for centuries, but 1910 is when the fi rst auto-related camping vehicles were built for commercial sale.” Known as “auto campers” or “camping trailers” a century ago, these vehicles were a forerunner of today’s modern RVs.

“There were one-offs [individual units] built prior to 1910,” says White, an associate curator for the Smithsonian Institution. “But 1910 is a good benchmark for the industry.”

THE FREEDOM TO TRAVEL ANYWHERE“The 1910 RVs offered minimal comforts

compared to today’s homes-on-wheels,” says Woodworth. “But they did provide the freedom to travel anywhere, to be able to get a good night’s sleep and enjoy home cooking. One notable contrast to today’s RV was the bathroom. In 1910, it was usually either yonder tree or yonder bush.”

THE FIRST RV MODELSCamping trailers made by Los Angeles Trailer

Works and also rolled off the assembly line beginning in 1910. A version of today’s Type B van camper, the Pierce-Arrow “Touring Landau,” was unveiled at Madison Square Garden that same year, complete with an on-board bathroom. These companies and innovative products were featured in a Popular Mechanics issue in 1911. Take a stroll down memory lane to see where we’ve been.

Only wealthy people could afford the stylish Pierce-Arrow “Touring Landau,” which had tooled leather upholstrey, an on-board bathroom and a telephone between the chauffeur and passengers circa 1910.

Popular Mechanics ad for Pop-Up Camper, circa 1910.

The Conestoga wagons introduced about 1750, in the vicinity of Lancaster, Pa., gave an added impetus to right-hand travel. The driver rode the left wheel horse, postilion fashion, or rode the “lazy board” at the left side of the wagon. From this position he had a good view of the road ahead, and from it he operated the brake. Driving from the left side of the Conestoga made this a forerunner of the current practice of driving from the left side of the vehicle.

2015 RV SHOWTHE TIN CAN TOURISTS

RV camping clubs date back to the Tin Can Tourists of the 1920s and 1930s. The Tin Can Tourists were RVers who braved dust and mud to drive their Tin Lizzies across the U.S. before transcontinental

roads were paved. They camped by the side of the road, heated tin cans of food on gasoline stoves and bathed in cold water.

THE 1930SRVs sold in the 1930s used

aircraft-style construction and came equipped with beds, dinettes, electricity and water. After World War II, the RV industry fl ourished as more Americans sought mobility.

1950From tiny do-it-

yourself kits to plush 30-foot models, travel trailers came into their own as true towable RVs by 1950. Many of today’s RV manufacturers started production in the 1950s and 1960s. The RV’s evolutionary path included advances in

aerodynamic design and interior comforts.1970 AND BEYOND

Also known as pop-ups and tent trailers, Folding Camping Trailers are great for outdoor lovers who enjoy sleeping in a tent without sleeping on the ground. The Folding Camping Trailer stows away for easy, lightweight towing. With canvas sides that extend to reveal queen-sized beds, it’s easy to have a fresh-air experience with all the comforts of an RV.

Folding Camping Trailers appeal to budget-conscious consumers looking for a roomy towable RV.

The lighter weight allows for towing behind many typical family vehicles, including some small cars. It is important to match the loaded weight of the RV to the towing capacity of the tow vehicle. Always check your vehicle’s owner’s manual for towing weight restrictions and have your tow package professionally installed.

Lightweight and easy to maneuver when closed, Folding Camping Trailers are a snap to unhitch from the tow vehicle, freeing the vehicle for errands and sightseeing. The compact size allows for easy storage as well as quick and simple setup. Ample living space means kitchen, dining and sleeping areas are standard, with additional amenities available depending on size.

Some Folding Camping Trailers have slideouts that provide additional living space.

Size 8-24 ft Cost $6,000 to $22,000 Sleeps Up to 8

Folding Camping Trailer

Truck Camper The Truck Camper is a portable unit designed to be loaded onto, or affi xed to, the bed or chassis of a pickup truck. The

slide-in units are easily loaded and unloaded from the bed of the truck, freeing the truck’s bumper to tow boats, ATVs and other trailers.

Pickup truck owners fi nd Truck Campers to be an easy, economical option for camping getaways. The compact size makes them easy for travel on rough or windy roads.

Outdoor sportsmen fi nd them handy for fully equipped base camps in remote locations. The detachable camping unit allows the pickup truck to be used separately at the destination. Small space still offers a range of fl oor plans that maximize living area. Many models also have slideouts, which move the RV wall outward up to three feet at the touch of a button to create larger living areas. Amenities include toilets, showers, kitchen facilities and storage. Courtesy GoRVing.com


2015 RV SHOW

Conventional Travel Trailers offer a wide range of fl oor plans, sizes and conveniences.

Smaller models can be towed by mid-size vehicles, including the family car, minivan, SUV or pickup truck equipped with a hitch. Consult your dealer or owner’s manual for details and have the tow hitch professionally installed.

Lightweight composite models are designed specifi cally for towing behind many six-cylinder family vehicles.

At the campground, easily detach from the tow vehicle to use the vehicle for errands and sightseeing.

Travel Trailers boast all the conveniences of home, including kitchen, dining, bathroom, entertainment and storage.

Slideouts in some models move the RV wall outward up to three feet at the touch of a button, to create larger living areas once the travel trailer is set up in a campsite.

There can be as many as four slideouts in some models, which move the RV wall outward up to three feet at the touch of a button to create larger living areas.

Fifth-wheels often have a large picture window at the rear for panoramic views.

At the campground, easily detach from the tow vehicle, freeing the vehicle for errands and sightseeing.

Lightweight models have been designed specifi cally to allow the use of smaller trucks with less towing capacity.

It is important to match the loaded weight of the RV to the towing capacity of the tow vehicle. Consult your dealer or owner’s manual for details and have the tow hitch professionally installed.

*In several states, additional non-commercial driver’s licensing may be required for fi fth-wheel travel trailers that exceed certain weight thresholds. Check with your local department of motor vehicles for specifi cs.

A cross between a hard-sided Travel Trailer and a Folding Camping Trailer, the Expandable Travel Trailer ends pull out to offer more sleeping room. Expandable units are lighter than the Conventional Travel Trailer and often more affordable.

Smaller models can be towed by mid-size vehicles: either the family car, minivan, SUV or pickup truck. Check with your dealer for your vehicle’s tow limits.

Lightweight versions have been designed specifi cally for towing behind many six-cylinder family vehicles.

At the campground, easily detach from the tow vehicle to use the vehicle for errands and sightseeing.

A generous amount of living space makes kitchen, dining, bathroom and sleeping areas standard, with additional amenities available depending upon size.

The Sport Utility RV, or SURV, is for the active family who wants to take motorcycles, dirt bikes, ATVs or other motorized toys on the road.

Available as a motorhome or towable unit, the rear end of the SURV drops down, forming a ramp for access into a “garage” area where motorized toys can be safely stored; the living quarters are separated by a wall. All the conveniences of home, including kitchen, dining, bathroom, entertainment and storage.

2015 RV SHOW

Your Next Vacation Rent an RV

Buying a pre-owned RV is a great way to make your vacation dream a reality for less. Whether you’re looking for a towable or motorized RV, check with an RV

dealer because they often receive RVs as trade-ins on new vehicles.Just like buying a pre-owned car or truck, RV dealers provide a thorough

predelivery inspection of the used RV. You can visit your local dealer to compare units and features and to fi nd out about extended service agreements.

From family bonding to affordable getaways to spontaneous road trips – the reasons to buy an RV are endless. Here are some of

the top reasons why there’s never been a better time to buy:Many RV models allow a family of four to save up to 59 percent

on vacation costs over other forms of travel. That’s a calculation that takes into account RV ownership costs, including payments, insurance, maintenance, tires, tax breaks, registration and depreciation.

In today’s economy, there are great deals available on new RV models. Consider pre-owned units for more savings.

Financing is readily available for qualifi ed borrowers.You may qualify for a tax deduction because the interest on

your RV loan is generally deductible as second-home mortgage interest. Check with your fi nancial advisor to see if you qualify for the deduction.

Buying an RV

There’s no better way to try before you buy than by renting an RV. Many people rent RVs simply for a change of pace by taking an RV trip to a special event or

destination.You can rent near home and journey to your fi nal destination, or fl y and pick

up your RV at the other end. More than 460 national chain outlets and local RV dealerships rent RVs, including state-of-the-art, late-model-year units. A growing number of campgrounds offer on-site RV rentals as well.

Most RV rental companies offer housekeeping packages (dishes, pots, pans, bed linens, etc.) for a nominal fee, or you can bring your own. Even if you’re driving or towing an RV for the fi rst time, features like automatic transmissions, power steering, large external mirrors and rearview cameras make it easy for experienced drivers to adjust to the difference in size, height and weight.

2015 RV SHOW

An RV should have all the comforts of home, and shouldn’t that be

true for your pets as well? You’ll love sharing your RV adventures with furry friends. Make sure you—and your pet—are prepared for the journey.

■ Introducing pets to the RV lifeYou know your pet better than

anyone, so you’re the best person to answer the following question: How does my pet fare on long car rides and in new environments?

If your pet is prone to anxiety in unfamiliar situations, spend some time helping him get acquainted with his new RV home. Before bringing her aboard, put her bed and toys in the RV so she will rec-ognize them right away and start to get comfortable Take your pet for a short RV ride so he can get used to the moving environment, and spend a night in the RV when its still parked in your driveway so pets can adjust to the routine of life in the RV.

■ Special products for RV petsAlong with the all the pet essen-

tials you use regulary—leashes, collars, tags with cell phone num-ber, pick-up bags, food and treats, toys, bed and cleaning supplies—there are lots of spe-cialty products that RV pets that will make your pet’s journey par-ticularly enjoyable.

■ Water Hole Pet Dish has an anti-splash lid that will keep things tidy when your pet needs a drink while RV is in motion. (available at www.campingworld.com)

■ Enhanced Strength Tru-Fit Smart Pet Harness works like a seat belt for pets and can be used in cars too. Modern RVs should have a seatbelt for every passenger seat, often hidden under couch or dinette cushions; seat belts can be installed in older models of RV as well. (made-to-order at www.straight-linedesigns.com)

■ A Pet Trailer will make your dog the coolest dog at the camp-ground. The custom-made dog-houses with cleverly placed food and water bowls, will capture your style while giving your dog a shady place to relax outside.(made-to-order at www.straight-linedesigns.com)

■ Campground etiquette When planning your RV trip,

confirm that the campgrounds andparks you will be visiting allow pets. Your pet will likely be required to be leashed at all times at certain sites, so make sure you have a long enough rope or chain to allow your pet to move around your campsite without disturbing other campers. Picking up after your pet is absolutely essential, especially if you want a camp-ground to maintain its “pets wel-come” policy. Also, make sure your pets vaccinations are up-to-date, especially since they may be encountering a variety of wildlife.

Located on 17 acres in Deer Park, Parkway RV is a small, family-owned dealership with a

unique product mix, a reputation for honesty and a geographically diverse clientele.

“We’re known for no-pressure sales,” says RV sales manager Thure Ahlqvist. “We have a small and highly knowledgeable sales staff and an excellent service department. We have very low turnover and a lot of repeat business in both sales and service.”

Parkway is proud of its “no-games” pricing strategy, Ahlquist said.

“We’re not an ‘MSRP’ dealer; a lot of dealers will start their pricing at MSRP, of say $37,000,” he said. “Our price will start at $29,950, so there’s more transparency.”

Parkway’s inventory is anchored by a pair of brands that inspire loyal followings.

Lance uses eco-friendly materials to build high-end, lightweight trailers, campers and fi fth-wheels, all of which can be equipped for all-season use. Its products are especially popular in Idaho and Montana.

Aliner’s hard-sided pop-up camper trailers are so light they can be towed by small cars, yet strong enough to offer security, even in bear country. They’re also popular on the west side of the state. “We’re amazingly competitive with our Aliner prices, so we get a lot of business from the coast,” Ahlqvist said.

Recently, Parkway added the Coachman and Gulf Stream brands.

Because it’s associated with Parkway Auto Center, Parkway RV is uniquely able to assist customers seeking a complete package of tow vehicle and RV.

“We have over 325 used cars and trucks,” says Ahlquist, “so we can help the customer create the ideal setup.”

The dealership also is “extremely safety oriented,” he notes.

“Customers will not leave our shop without the proper hitch, trailer control and trailer. We won’t send them out with a trailer that doesn’t match their unit.”

That policy has cost him several deals over the past couple of years, Ahlqvist says. But, on the other hand, “we’ve had to help several customers who bought unsafe packages from other dealers.”

Historically, Parkway used to outsource its service work. In 2014, it built an all-new, fi ve-bay service department, each bay staffed by a certifi ed

technician. “We can handle almost all service

needs, except motor and chassis work,” Ahlquist says. “We tend to go above and beyond the call of duty for our customers.”

Although Parkway doesn’t have a mobile service staff, it is able to send technicians to remote sites if a customer’s rig needs servicing. Service staff also may be called on for custom repairs.

When, some Lance owners from Ohio showed up recently with an axle issue, Parkway’s staff solved the problem in-house, rather than waiting for the factory to ship a new axle.

“One of our techs is just really good at building axles, so we were able to machine and manufacture a new axle for them. They didn’t have to stay here for four to six weeks for a new axle to arrive,” Ahlquist says. “We had them on their way within a day-and-a-half.” For more info visit www.parkwayrv com/ or (509) 265-2925

2015 RV SHOW

By Renee SandeMarketing Correspodent

It all began with a motor home and a dream.In 1996, 48 year-old Joe Cahn

wondered if it would be possible to attend games in every National Football League city in a single season in his new RV.

What he discovered along the way, was that being in the parking lot was at least as much fun—if not more—as being in the stadium.

“[Tailgating] is the original Facebook, but the good thing about tailgating is when you ‘friend’ somebody you get some food,” said Cahn, in an advocate.com interview.

The self-described “Commissioner of Tailgating”—whose adventures were the focus of a TLC 6-part series last winter, “Tailgate Takedown,” calls the activity “the happiest place anybody could ever be.”

Cahn’s stadium adventure shows just how important a role the RV plays in creating the ideal

tailgating home base. Local RVer Chris Newberry

agrees. He and his wife Amy have

enjoyed pre-game parties at Eastern Washington University, his alma mater, since 2005.

But the good times became even better last July when they purchased an 18-foot travel trailer.

“We typically set up Friday night—two other couples join us—then we spend the whole weekend [at EWU],” said Newberry. “It’s nice to be able to have everything game-day ready and have a place to get out of bad weather, if need be.”

Tailgating traces its history back to 1869 and the fi rst football game between Rutgers and Princeton universities, when fans arrived in their carriages and brought along their own picnics.

John Sherry, University of Notre Dame cultural anthropologist, conducted a two-year study of college tailgating and found that the activity

is “more about sharing than competition.”

“The individual traditions they are creating add to the larger tradition,” he says. “They see it as participating in the team experience.”

While times have changed, Tom and Karen Stebbins, also local EWU and WSU tailgating enthusiasts, bring along a kegorator and a grill, which declares that food and beer are two of the most important elements to a successful parking lot function.

“Having an RV makes it a fun place to gather around. It’s an open house atmosphere, always with lots of food, beer, and music,” said Tom. “We have a good time.”

Modern tailgating generally has an anything-goes feeling, but regular revelers and RV owners do have some guidelines that they follow. Here are some strategies from “Tips for Tailgating.” ■ Common items easily

forgotten. Bottle openers, cork screws, lots of paper towels, garbage bags, sunscreen, baggies, foil, Frisbees, footballs, toilet paper, extra ice, chairs, spare containers, antacid, fi rst aid kit, jumper cables.

■ Plan your menu. If going with a big group, make it potluck. It’s fun to share and exchange dishes, plus it saves money. Prepare burger patties in advance.

■ Start RV refrigerator several hours before to make sure food stays fresh and cold. Load with pre-cooled items so it doesn’t have to work too hard.

■ Prepare your water tanks. Add enough water in your RV’s black tank to cover the bottom after dumping and fl ushing. Make sure everyone knows what can and can’t be put in the toilet. Be sure toilet paper is septic-safe.

■ Early bird secures a spot. Look for a prime spot near the end of a row to have space to

open your awning and set up chairs. If you don’t know, call in advance to confi rm whether a special parking permit is needed for your RV.

■ Have lots of water. Drinking water will help you and your friends stay hydrated and help keep sobriety in check.

■ Know the limitations of your generator. Be careful when running the microwave, blender and TV all at once as you could trip a circuit breaker. Know where the breaker panel is just in case. Check your generator a day or two before.

■ Meet your neighbors. Tailgating environments are like a great American neighborhood, where you can walk through “backyards” of fellow fans without privacy fences. Have extra food on hand, be a friendly neighbor, be respectful to opposing fans and have a good time. You may meet some new friends or pick up some great RV tips.

■ Clean up after yourself. Respect your team and respectthe stadium grounds by keeping the place clean. Have plenty of trash bags in your motor home to minimize litter.

2015 RV SHOW

Some questioned the judgment of Nick and Karyn Dietz when they founded Airstream of Spokane 10 years ago.

Skeptics argued that not only would the pricey travel trailers prove too rich for the region’s frugal blood, but the Dietzes would seal their fate by selling Airstream products exclusively, with no loss leaders to keep cash fl owing during lean times.

However, one decade and a Great Recession later, the Dietzes are very much enjoying the fruits of their foresight. Though the recession clobbered sales, Airstream of Spokane continues to see the same growth that has prompted Airstream to expand its production capabilities by 50 percent.

The national company saw sales drop by 60 percent during the recession, but its rebound was quick and substantial, causing a slowdown

in customer deliveries. “We’ve had a couple of years of signifi cant

backlog,” says Nick Dietz, Airstream of Spokane president. “It’s been a challenge to keep up.”

But strong sales are not the only good news for the Dietzes this year. In May, Airstream recognized the local company’s commitment to customer service with its National Excellence in Service Award.

When they opened the Spokane location, the Dietzes knew a thing or two about selling high-end products to clients who relied on them.

“We had run a wholesale Honda engine distributorship for 18 years,” Dietz explains. “We thought we had the expertise to be able to sell a premium product at a premium price. Our philosophy was that the people who were using our products were trying to make a living with a small engine.”

These customers deserved the same level of professional service as any customer whose livelihood depends on a product, he says.

That philosophy came with the Dietzes into the RV business:

“We wanted our customers to know that we understood that their RV travels were the most important thing they were doing at the time, and

not just something to take lightly,” he said. Airstream of Spokane experienced sales

growth in each of its fi rst four years. When the recession hit and sales fell off the cliff, the company survived on the strength of Airstream’s loyal customer base.

“The advantage you have as an Airstream dealers is that you have customers who have vehicles that are 20, 30, 40 years old, and they’re loyal,” says Dietz. “They prefer to work with an Airstream dealer. So service was defi nitely part of our success.”

Airstream doesn’t hand out its National Excellence in Service award gratuitously. It’s given irregularly and awarded to only one dealership at a given time. It’s based on evaluations provided by Airstream national’s service managers, and on customer surveys, and refl ects such qualities as the quality and appearance of the dealership’s facilities, its presentation of Airstream products and overall professionalism.

“We’ve been fortunate to work with some really great customers, and it’s fun being able to deal with a product that has the history and quality that Airstream does,” says Dietz.For more info visit www.airstreamofspokane.com or call (509) 534-8599

RVs Northwest has the distinction of being the area’s oldest RV dealer — it

celebrates 30 years this year!It also was the fi rst RV dealership

to set up shop along Interstate 90 20 years ago.

Today, owners Ron and Tina Little continue to make sure that all customers receive the same high levels of service and quality products, not just at the Spokane Valley location but at newer locations on North Division and in Coeur d’Alene.

“We have the genuine desire to help people fi nd the right RV to fi t their needs and to provide quality well-trained parts and service personnel for any needs after the sale,” he said. “My philosophy is simple — treat people so well that they won’t consider going anywhere else.”

He began working for the dealership in 1992, and became owner in 2001. He’s also the past-president of the Washington RV Dealer’s Association and currently represents Washington state as a member of the Board of Delegates of the National RV Dealers Association.

The family-owned business also includes daughter Melissa Allen, who runs the Parts Department, and her husband Jamie Allen, the Service Manager.

Last year, RVs Northwest launched a RV rental program, which Little says has been a big success.

The rental fl eet includes six motor

homes and six trailers, and is expected to grow to keep with demand. Customers can use it for tailgating, camping, Northwest sightseeing, family get-togethers or just about any occasion.

To make the rental experience even more convenient, RVs Northwest is willing to deliver your rental anywhere within 100 miles of Spokane. If needed, they can even set it up and collect it for you.

If you end up enjoying the rental program so much that you want to invest in your own, the ‘try-before-you-buy’ program can refund the cost of

the rental when you purchase your own.

The dealership is now accepting rental reservations for the 2015 travel season.

RVs Northwest has built its reputation on creating a professional no-pressure atmosphere.

“We like to give the customer a full walk-through to show them all the features and how easy they are to operate — we try to get them to visualize using their RV and really experience what life could be like in it,” he said. “We try to treat everyone like a friend or relative, and help them fi nd exactly what they want.”

2015 RV SHOW

http://www.rvsnorthwest.com/


2015 RV SHOW

Freedom RV is perhaps best known for its extensive lineup of motorized RVs, says general manger Jim Fisher.

“We are probably the predominant motorized dealer in town,” Fisher says. “We carry the top-selling brands, including Tiffi n, the most in-demand product out there. It’s the Mercedes-Benz of the industry.”

The dealership also carries the country’s top-selling gas-powered Class A motorhome, Forest River’s Georgetown, and the best-selling Class C Sunseeker, also from Forest River.

“We just added Jayco’s motorized products, as well,” Fisher says.

Anticipating another year of strong sales, Freedom has increased its inventory. And, now, with its product line well established, Freedom turns its attention elsewhere.

“Our main focus now is customer service,” the GM says. The industry’s rapid post-recession

growth places pressure on the entire industry, he explained, including manufacturers, suppliers and dealers.

At the recent annual meeting of the Recreational Vehicle Dealers Association, customer service was a key topic, he says. Among the key issues: “ … getting work done in the time that the customer wants it done.”

Dealers have no choice but “ … to rethink their dealerships.”

Deciding to be proactive, Freedom is recreating its service capabilities, adding staff and space and refi ning its processes.

“We’ve increased our technical staff,” Fisher says, “During our peak season, we’ll keep our Service Department

open longer.”Freedom recently converted the former detail

shop to a warranty and vehicle-prep shop. With the additional staff and space, Freedom will be able to pre-prep every vehicle before it’s sold.

“This allows us to deliver the vehicle more

quickly to the buyer,” explains Fisher.Pre-prepping also ensures that no RV is

delivered without being thoroughly prepped. Techs typically spend between fi ve and seven

hours to ready a fi fth-wheel or travel trailer, Fisher notes, and a motorized vehicle requires seven to ten hours. At the season’s peak, when sales are high and customers want their rigs, the process may be rushed.

Fisher says the new approach prevents that. “I’ve put in place a new prep checklist. And

because we’ll be pre-prepping the vehicles, we can know that no shortcuts have been taken.”

Freedom has boosted the number of vehicles it stocks, hoping to reduce the lapse between purchase and delivery.

“We’ve increased our stocking level to be able to have the prod the customer wants at the time they want it,” he said. “Last year, it could take 8-12 weeks to deliver a vehicle; it could be the end of the season before the customer got it. This year, we will do better than that.”For more info visit www.freedomrvusa.com/ or call (509) 921-9977

2015 RV SHOW

The motor purrs, the hot chocolate steams, and the ski lifts whir.

It’s dawn, you’re in your RV, and it looks like you might be the fi rst ones to carve fresh tracks at your favorite ski area.

Motor homes are becoming popular ways of getting up to the mountain plus fun places to stay during and after a fun day on the slopes.

For the most part, most ski areas welcome RVers, who can park right in the parking lot – but there are some guidelines to keep in mind.

“We see a lot of campers,” says Amy Trowbridge, from Mt. Baker, a popular camp area, ski area and Washington destination for many RV owners. “On an average weekend, we’ll have 10 campers but on a big event weekend like last year’s Banked Slalom competition, we probably had 30 campers in the lot.”

She said there aren’t any hook-ups and the road can be tricky, but it’s worth it, as long as RV owners are prepared.

“People have to be ready for lots of snow—the road is snow-covered, so traction tires or chains are often required,” Trowbridge said.

Plenty of Northwest ski areas welcome, or at least don’t mind RV owners.

Mt. Bachelor near Bend, Ore., allows rigs to stay in the parking lot since it’s on the national forest, which allows up to 16 nights of camping.

However, some ski resorts do discourage overnight campers, due to homeowners association regulations or local zoning restrictions. It helps to call ahead or check the web page prior to packing everything up.

In the Inland Northwest, Schweitzer Mountain Resort, Lookout Pass, 49 Degrees North, Mt. Spokane, and Silver Mountain all permit RV camping at their location or nearby.

Or if you want to drive a little further, you’ll fi nd more in surrounding

statess, such as at Bridger Bowl, near Bozeman, Mont., where RV owners can get fi rst crack at 350 inches of the light and dry powder, plus ample parking, a restaurant and a brewpub.

“The caveat is that we don’t have power hookups or water or dump, so the vehicle must be completely contained,” said marketing director Doug Wales. “We appreciate people checking in with us at the main offi ce if they plan to spend the night. They have to move the RV early in the morning for snowplowing, but other than that, we welcome RVs.”

While the opportunity to walk out the door to a ski lift is great, travel experts suggest that RV owners should give their rig a good inspection before heading up the hill.

Since most aren’t built necessarily for winter conditions, it helps to be ready for anything.

Your RVs should be equipped with winter tires. Bring along chains and know how to use them, since they can be trickier than car chains.

If your rig has a slide-out, beware that it can freeze. Experts suggest checking the slide-out mechanism ahead of time. Whether it’s the hydraulic system, a worm-gear slide or rack and pinion slide, you need to know how to access the system, and which tool can retract it manually.

Catalytic or ceramic heaters provide an inexpensive and welcome extra heat source.

Other tips address condensation build-up, particularly for RVs that use propane. It’s easy to pop a vent or inch-open the jalousie window. If snow is blowing in, create a temporary curtain on the outside so moisture escapes instead of drives inside, or park in a sheltered spot. Another solution is purchasing a dehumidifi er, which can be stowed when not in use.

Hoses should be disconnected, or only reconnected to fi ll the internal water tank. Some people use heat tape, however, at temperatures near zero or colder, the heat tape might not

be suffi cient. The sewage dump hose should only be attached at clean-out and notably, should be propped at a downward angle into the dump—no loops or low spots.

For those shopping for four-season RVs, the RV Consumer Group http://www.rv.org/ rates the rigs for snow-condition driving, double-pane windows, insulation factors and more.

MountainWest AAA notes that nearly a quarter of weather-related crashes happen on snow, slush or ice, resulting in more than 1,300 deaths and 116,800 injures annually.

Overall, with some precaution, taking your RV for skiing can be a great experience. Just ask Jan Lutesen, a Minnesota resident, whose family likes to stop for snow whenever they fi nd it.

“We love taking the RV and the family to different ski areas,” he said. The family recently stopped to snowboard and camp at Lookout Pass on the Montana-Idaho border. “We were driving to Seattle and stopping to ski along the way. It’s fun and easy and you just have to drive carefully on the snowy roads, not be in a hurry.”

2015 RV SHOW

Some people keep their same RV for years. Others like to upgrade every now and then – maybe you have more or less people

joining you as life circumstances change. Maybe there are some cool improvements and features in newer models that make it worth upgrading.

Whatever the case, the Inland NW RV Show is the perfect opportunity to see what’s new, and area dealers are happy to give you the low-down on different brands. Here’s a sneak peek about what’s new in 2015.

AIRSTREAMAirstream plans to show something big at the

Spokane RV Show: the 2015 International Signa-ture 27 with a front-bedroom fl oor plan.

Nick Dietz, president of Airstream of Spokane, said traditional Airstream fl oor plans feature a rear bedroom, with the living and dining areas up front. The front-bedroom layout reverses that.

“The uniqueness is that it allows the use of pan-oramic windows at both the front and rear,” Dietz explains. “You have an unobstructed view out the back, where the dining area is located, as well as from the bedroom. Once you move the tow vehicle away from the coach, there are views from the front and the back.”

Add to that large side windows, skylights and Airstream’s VistaView portal windows and the International Signature becomes airy and bright.

“At last, we found a way to improve the iconic design of the silver aluminum Airstream: with an interior from award-winning architect and de-signer Christopher C. Deam that allows light to pour in the panoramic windows and refl ect off sleek polished surfaces to create an environment that simply takes your breath away,” according to company materials.

Three new interior colors are available: Oyster, a light, off-white; Espresso, a rich chocolate-brown tone; and Salsa, a deep red.

The plan includes abundant concealed storage and a “headwall” queen bed, which creates more walk-around space by locating the head of the queen-sized bed against the front wall.

Quietstream is a ducted air-conditioning system

that provides even heating and cooling throughout the coach.

Typically, trailers are heated and cooled from a single point, Dietz explains. But Quietstream employs ceiling ducting to circulate treated air directly to the coach’s regions. The revision prompted Airstream to reengineer the structure of its coaches’ roofs for the fi rst time in 30 years, Dietz says.

All Airstream trailers are now equipped with Dexter’s Nev-R-Adjust self-adjusting braking system. The technology eliminates the need to manually adjust brakes every 12 months or 12,000 miles.

Coaches 25 feet and longer add Dexter’s Nev-R-Lube maintenance-free bearings.

“Both of these technologies are meant to save time and money and to add to customer safety and security,” Dietz says.

FREEDOM RV Freedom RV has aggressive plans for the 2015

RV Show.

“We have more space than we’ve had in a long time,” explains general manager Jim Fisher. “We’ll have 55-57 vehicles inside and another 15-20 outside.”

Freedom’s team has even set an ambitious show target: 100 sales, and its selection of mostly motorized vehicles should make this goal do-able.

The dealership’s efforts will focus on the Tiffi n family of Class A diesel pushers and Forest River’s Georgetown, the country’s best-selling gas-powered Class A motor home.

“Tiffi n has a wide range of motor homes, starting with its entry-level gas-powered products, which start at about $120,000, all the way up to the $400,000 range,” Fisher notes.

Tiffi n’s two hottest sellers are its Phaeton and Allegro Bus diesel pushers, both of which “are pretty much impossible to get,” says Fisher.

Available in lengths ranging from 38-42 feet, the Phaeton is the best-selling diesel pusher.

The Allegro Bus (37-45 feet) is a favorite among full-timers, says Tiffi n: “Designed for upscale residential living, the coach spoils you with elegantly appointed luxuries melded with

practical comforts.”

“Tiffi n has a strong brand-locality following,” Fisher says. “Its founder, Bob Tiffi n, is legendary in the industry for taking care of his customers.”

For the past few years, Forest River’s Georgetown (27-35 feet) has outsold all other gas-powered Class A motor homes.

The Georgetown is recognized as a quality-oriented mid-level product, with its entry-level coaches priced from just under $100,000 and ranging upwards to “the high-end stuff, with quad-slides and all the extras,” Fisher said.

“It’s very well-built and is bread-and-butter of Forest River’s motorized line,” he added. “Over the years, they’ve refi ned it to be a great product at a great price.”

R’nR RV R’nR RVs added a third store this year,

brought in a new brands and shuffl ed a few models between locations.

“We’re excited because we moved our Cougar fi fth-wheel products from Airway Heights to Liberty Lake,” said general manager Jerry Wagner. “That allows us to keep a larger inventory, and moves the No. 1 fi fth-wheel closerto town.”

With extensive features, innovative fl oor plans and attractive pricing, Cougar products have been the country’s best-selling fi fth-wheels for 13 consecutive years.

Replacing Cougar at Airway Heights is Forest River’s Prime Time products, including Crusader fi fth-wheels and Avenger travel trailers.

“Prime Time is one of the industry’s stronger up-and-coming products,” Wagner says. “They build excellent products and do nice interiors.”

The new Lewiston, Idaho, store recently added Jayco’s Jay Flight aluminum-sided travel trailers. Priced signifi cantly below fi berglass competitors,Jay Flight is the country’s best-selling trailer, Wagner says.

He expects a strong response at the RV Show to Winnebago’s new Trend Class B+ motor home. The gasoline-powered Trend costs thousands less than diesel-powered competitors and fetches up to 15 mpg on the highway.

Class B+ vehicles are built on the chassis of full-size vans. In Class B, the existing van body is modifi ed and a full complement of RV systems installed.

2015 RV SHOW“It’s more like a Class C motor home, but

without the overhead bed people are used to seeing,” says Wagner.

Winnebago also offers the new Winnebago Brave, a retro-styled trailer that resembles a 1970-vintage Brave. “It looks like the old Brave on the outside,” the GM adds, “and even has a little of the early ‘70s appearance on the inside.”

A new line is the Spartan toy hauler. Spartans feature luxurious and subdued “residential” interiors, replete with amenities like Corian countertops, Lane furniture and Samsung entertainment centers.

Canada’s Northern Lite is back in business following a factory fi re. Production of its unique molded-fi berglass truck campers in its new factory began in November.

“They’re just coming back out, and we’ll have them at the show,” Wagner says.

Northern Lite’s two-piece molded-fi berglass campers weigh 25 percent less than conventional wood-frame campers, with weight savings of 1,000-1,500 pounds. “The fi berglass molding process is not inexpensive,” Wagner notes, “but you can haul a 10-foot camper and still tow a boat or horse trailer.

Block-foam insulation provides four-seasons climate control and all Northern Lite campers are equipped with solid-wood cabinetry, LED interior lighting (and available exterior lighting) and 95-watt solar panels.

RVS NORTHWESTVisitors to the RVs Northwest area can see an

excellent variety of products, especially if you’re looking for something fun to pull or a pick-up camper.

“We have something for everyone,” said owner Ron Little. “This includes smaller, lightweight trailers for people with smaller trucks or sport utility vehicles.”

The family-owned dealership is proud to carry four-season trailers produced in the Northwest especially for Northwesterners. These brands include the always-popular Arctic Fox, Nash and Desert Fox brands.

“These are true four-season trailers, fi fth wheels and toy-haulers that come complete with insulated holding tank areas where warm air circulates around the suspended tanks,” Little said.

Residential-quality insulation and optional thermal-pane windows provide comfort in both hot and cold conditions.

Little said the Arctic Fox is one of the best-built pick-up campers around. It offers four-season durability plus all the amenities for a perfect camping experience.

Also included in the Arctic Fox family is the lightweight Wolf Creek camper, designed to provide the same durability and comfort but in a lighter version.

Another new all-season product is the Outdoors RV lineup of fi fth wheels and trailers.

Interiors are not only designed to be visually stunning but also provide the maximum amount of storage and ease-of-use, like a 26-foot center-island fl oor plan that features opposing slide-outs. It’s available as the Glacier Peak fi fth-wheel and Creekside travel trailer.

Another new offering is from Star Craft, which offers a range of travel trailers, from the entry-level Starfl yer to higher end Travel Star, all with the same attention to detail and high craftsmanship.

Little said the staff at the show or any of the three locations is always happy to talk to people about products that can best fi t their lifestyle, interests and budget, whether they’re fi rst-time shoppers or ready for an upgrade.

“We try to offer everything from entry-level trailers to luxury motor homes,” Little said. “We love seeing people come back. It confi rms we are providing the level of service people expect.”

PARKWAY RVThure Ahlquist can’t fi nd enough good things

about Lance RVs.

“Lance is an upper-end, high-quality trailer,” says Ahlquist, sales manager at Parkway RVs. “They are the upper end of the small-trailer market and we’re really proud to have them.”

Lance builds truck campers, fi fth-wheels and lightweight traveler trailers.

“They’re one of the few RV makers in the coun-try that uses computer modeling, so their trailers have incredibly tight tolerances,” he said.

Rather than using plywood in wall construction, Lance uses Azdel, a thermoplastic composite. Azdel is an effective insulator and resists rot, mold and mildew. It’s stronger than plywood, too, says

Ahlquist; “You can pound on the walls and you won’t hurt them.”

Built in California, Lance’s products are envi-ronmentally friendly. For 2015, the company has eliminated all instances of mercury.

Another mainstay of the Parkway lineup is Aliner’s hard-sided A-frame pop-up camper trail-ers, which are preferred by buyers seeking the simplicity of a tent trailer, but who also want the security of solid walls.

Aliner’s aluminum-framed campers range in weight from 3,000 to 4,000 pounds and can be towed behind most passenger cars.

“You can tow an Aliner behind a Subaru,” Ahlquist says. “You can also take them into any park, where there’s the threat of bears.”

Setting up an Aliner in a campground always draws a crowd, he says; “They go up in, like, fi ve minutes.”

Parkway recently has added a pair of new brands.

Coachman builds a wide range of motorized RVs and towables, ranging from 19-foot trailers to 40-foot diesel pushers. Parkway will focus on the Freedom Express and Catalina travel trailers.

“We’re really excited about that trailer,” says Ahlquist, “Coachman builds a really good entry-level and midrange product.”

The other new products come from Gulf Stream.“They make a really good upper-end mid-level trailer with a lot of quality interior products, from countertops to lighting. They’re really moving forward in the market, coming out with new fl oor plans and ideas,” he notes; “We’re excited to havethem in the fold.”

Parkway will carry Gulf Stream’s lightweight Gulf Breeze, Streamlight and Vista Cruiser travel trail-ers, some of which will be at the show.

‘One size fi ts all’ doesn’t work at all for RV owners.

Everyone may want something different — maybe more space for kids or grandkids. Pull-outs. Room for bikes. Less space but something simple to drive.

However you want it, R’n R RV can help. Since 1991, the dealership has offered plenty of options, whether it’s a fi rst or fi fth purchase.

“Our goal is to provide our customers with a one-stop shop for all RV needs,” said General Manager Jerry Wagner. “We have, by far, the area’s largest selection, the largest volume of certifi ed technicians, and amenities that others just don’t compare to.”

R’nR RV’s Liberty Lake location covers 15 acres with vehicles plus 40 service bays that can accommodate more than 200 RVs. Overnight spots are also available with full hook-up capabilities by appointment for out-of-town customers.

“Our service facility is unique in the number of certifi ed and master certifi ed technicians,” Wagner said. “We even handle full body paint and repair, which 99 percent of dealers just don’t have the capability of doing.”

Customers can visit a 1,200-square-foot RV camping store with parts and accessories,

the area’s largest in-stock selection, and a full-lunch restaurant, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily.

Since 2008, R’nR has also provided RVs, trailers, and campers at its Airway Heights location (formerly Blue Crick RV).

R’nR now has a third location: a sales lot in Lewiston plus a service and parts facility in nearby Clarkston.

With all three locations, R’nR carries over 400 new and used RVS from

top manufacturers, including Winnebago, Coachmen,

Dutchmen, Forest River, Intermountain

RV, Keystone, Starcraft, Adventurer, Northern Lite,

Fleetwood, Heartland, and Roadtrek. The new location also will carry Itasca motor homes and Jayco towables.

The Liberty Lake and Lewiston locations also now carry Berkshire pontoon boats.

One product increasing in popularity is ultra-light travel trailers.

“They have all the new-build characteristics as the heavier models but are more fuel-effi cient and can be pulled with a mid-size SUV,” he said. “Between our three locations, without a doubt, we can fi nd the RV best suited to our customer’s needs,” said Wagner. “What we are able to provide our customers is very rare for an RV dealer.”

Habitual, flawless execution. This isthe key to a bull’s-eye. An archer draws back their arrow.

An index finger anchors somewhereabove the jaw line. Lips familiarizethemselves with fletching, let go a briefexhale – a routine that resembles themurmurings of a prayer. Nothing else exists in the periphery.

There is no sound other than measuredbreathing, the twang of string, air beingcut. A thud asks the question: Waseverything perfect?A lapse in concentration during the

draw cycle could spell a miss, even atclose range. Should fingers curl at thenock, an arrow will slip off the rest. Atense draw hand that jerks uponrelease, instead of relaxing, causes anopposite reaction from the bow hand,again meaning a miss.

Any archer that fails to keep eyes onthe target and reflect after the shot willform bad habits. In these respects, thisgame is more than just a sport.During the Middle Ages, King

Edward III required all able-bodiedmen to make use of bows and arrowson their holidays and during theirgames, for he considered the longbow“no small advantage to ourselves in ourwarlike enterprises.” The English longbow is speculated to

have had a draw weight up to 200pounds, over twice the weight today’sstrongest shooters pull. Examining theskeletons of longbow archers revealedenlarged left arms and bone spurs thatpeppered their wrists, shoulders andfingers.

However, for modern archery, thatamount of strength and sacrifice is farfrom necessary.

2015 RV SHOW

Is this the year you join the nearly 10 million American RVers who’ve already discovered the thrill of the open road?

Spokane-area RV dealers say the number of fi rst-time buyers is growing quickly.

“We’re seeing more and more fi rst-time buyers all the time,” says Jim Fisher, general manager at Freedom RV. “We’re seeing more younger buyers; I think people have a bit more leisure time and they want to spend it with their families.”

First-time buyers may be surprised to learn they can fi nd a suitable travel trailer for less than $15,000, he notes. With a $1,500 down payment, credit-worthy buyers spend less than $150 per month on a new trailer.

Buying that fi rst RV can be daunting, though. Options are endless and mistakes can be expensive. Jerry Wagner, general manager at R’nR RVs, urges buyers to do their homework:

“People need to be realistic about how they’re going to use their RV,” Wagner says.

Typical getting-started questions may include:■ How will you use your RV?■ Will you travel cross-country or weekends nearby

camping? ■ Will you tow your RV or do you prefer a self-

contained motor home?

■ Do you plan to get off the beaten path, or only stay in public parks and campgrounds?

■ If you plan to tow, how much weight can your tow vehicle safely handle?

■ What type of fl oor plan is right?■ How many people will occupy the RV at one time? ■ What are your sleeping requirements? ■ Is there enough seating space?

“Decide what’s important to you and make sure you get it,” says Jeanie Froehlich, who, with her husband Jay, hit the road this fall in a 20-foot travel trailer. “In a smaller trailer, you have trade-offs; you may decide it’s important to have larger bathroom and less storage.”

Other questions could include:■ Movement: Can you walk around the entire bed or is it built into the corner of the walls? Are there windows where you want windows? If you’re traveling with children, does the fl oor plan minimize the likelihood that everyone be in the same place at the same time?■ Storage: Is there enough room, inside and out? How about counter space for the kind of cooking you will do? Are there enough cabinets and drawers?■ Airfl ow. If you plan to spend most of your time in warm locales, is the air conditioning adequate? Is there enough insulation to keep the unit cool in the heat and warm in the cold?

■ Water/waste. Is the bathroom large enough? Can you stand up in the shower? Can you sit on the toilet? How’s the water storage tank capacity? Can you carry enough fresh water for the type of traveling you will do? Are the gray- and black-water tanks large enough? How about propane tanks?

■ Equipment: Do you need a generator? A phone jack?

■ Construction: How was the RV built? Do you want a lightweight trailer for added fuel effi ciency, or a heavier trailer prepped for four-seasons use?

■ Fuel: If you’re buying a motor home do you want gas or diesel? Which is more practical for how you will use it?Once a prospective buyer has considered these

sort of questions, it’s time to go shopping.R’nRs Wagner suggests that prospective buyers

visit during the week, because a dealership is slower on weekdays and a salesperson will have time to talk.”

An experienced salesperson will also ask these types of questions to help guide the conversation and fi nd the best fi t.

“The customer has to let the salesperson help them,” said Wagner. “We want happy customers; we want them to buy the right rig the fi rst time around.”

Possible buyers should follow their own instincts, rather than listening to the advice of friends and family, he said. “They shouldn’t let friends tell them what they should or shouldn’t buy.”

The Inland NW RV Show is all about making your dreams come true, especially if they may involve fi nding

a great rig and taking your family on a memorable road trip.

And that’s not the only dreams you can have: visitors to the 2015 show can enter to win the ultimate RV experience: a trip to Sturgis, S.D., for the 75th anniversary of that community’s motorcycle celebration.

If your name is selected in a random drawing, you’ll receive a rental of an RV from RVs Northwest for the week of Aug. 1-7, 2015, which will be enough time for you to drive

to Sturgis, spend three days partying with 100,000 of your new pals, and heading back home.

During your stay in South Dakota, you’ll receive three days of hook-up at Buffalo Chip, a campground near where the action is. You’ll also receive two All-Access passes for the concerts at Buffalo Chip, and a $100 gas card.

All it takes to enter the Sturgis Giveaway is to be at least age 25 and to visit the RV Show and turn in an entry form on or before 4 P.M. Jan. 25. The promotion is sponsored by 101.1 FM and RVs Northwest.

2015 RV SHOW

If you have the opportunity to purchase a RV at this year’s show there’s something crucial

you can’t forget: to spend some time inside the American Family Insurance Cash Machine.

Being able to spend 30 seconds in the booth of whirling, swirling currency is an extra treat for people who invest in an RV. While they’re inside, various denominations of bills whirl around, and the goal is to grab as much as you can in the allotted time.

Steve Cody, owner of the RV Show and Sale, said some people look forward to the cash machine experience as much as they do taking ownership of a new rig – maybe even more so.

“Even if someone just spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on an RV they really try to make sure they get their time in the booth,” Cody said. “Everyone loves that experience.”

Since so many RVs are sold during the RV Show, there will likely be many opportunities for visitors to cheer people as they enter the booth and see how much cash they can emerge with. Cody will also make announcements inviting people to that area before this happens.

■ Camp closer to home. With more than 16,000 campgrounds nationwide, RVers can enjoy the outdoor experience whether they travel fi ve miles or 500 miles.

■ Stay longer in one place. Many RV parks are vacation destinations in their own right, offering pools, playgrounds, hiking trails, entertainment centers, organized activities, convenience stores and so much more.

■ Pack lighter by not topping off fresh water tanks until at the campground and by purchasing fi rewood and other camping materials on-site to keep

the RV lightweight while traveling. Be sure holding tanks are dumped before heading out to further lighten the load.

■ Tune up the engine of your motorhome or tow vehicle, infl ate tires properly and conduct regular

maintenance to maximize fuel effi ciency.

Some other facts tokeep in mind:■ Fuel is typically only

the fourth largest expense on a road trip, behind lodging, food, vehicle payment and maintenance.

■ Airfares and hotel rates also rise when fuel costs increase and fuel surcharges are added. You can avoid those costs in an RV.

■ Fuel prices would need to more than triple from their current level to make RVing more expensive for a family of four than other forms of travel.
