BUY OR RENT

Are you feeling the call of the road? There’s really no wrong answer here, just the right choice for you.

Pros of renting

• Cost-effective — if life is busy and you only travel a few times a year, renting is an economical way to get the family away.
• Low to no commitment — try the RV lifestyle before you buy into it, and find out exactly what you like.
• Feature discovery — renting a few different units is the fastest way to learn which features you actually want in one of your own.

Pros of buying

• It’s yours — you don’t have to share it, and you can do whatever you want with your unit.
• Long-term value — past a certain number of trips a year, owning costs less than renting again and again.
• Convenience — leave the camping gear in the RV and you only have to pack fresh supplies before a trip.
