1. The Larger The RV, The More The Maintenance 

One of the golden rules of RV is that there’s always more maintenance to be done with larger RV’s. This isn’t to discourage you from buying a larger RV model by any means, but it is just for you to understand that you’ll be spending additional time on maintenance work if you do buy one.

2. Make Sure You Like The Interior 

As you will see on Outdoorsy.com, the interiors of RVs are much nicer and more luxurious than you might expect. Many people have the impression that RV interiors are basic and cheaply made, but the reality is that’s not true at all. Be sure you carefully investigate the interior of the RV’s you are considering in person to be sure you like it.

3. What Is The Miles Per Gallon Of The RV?

The MPG rate of recreational vehicles can vary significantly from eight MPG all the way up to twenty MPG. If you want to spend less money on gasoline during your road trips, be sure you narrow your options to an RV that gets better gas mileage.

4. The Bigger The RV, The Higher The Insurance Bill

Just as larger RV’s often come with more required maintenance work, so they come with a larger monthly insurance bill as well. To lower the cost of insurance for your RV as much as possible, be sure you check in with multiple different insurance rates before you purchase an RV.

5. How Connected Is The RV?

If you want to stay connected with the outside world while on the road, then your RV must have features such as mobile internet, GPS, and/or satellite TV. Make a list of the different connectivity features that you would like your RV to have and then only consider specific models that have those features. You will find that living or traveling in your RV is much more convenient with the more connectivity features it has.
