Relieve Pressure at the Pump: Money-Saving
Tips for RVers
Don't let steep fuel prices squelch your travel plans. With a little advance
planning, you can travel smarter and still enjoy your RV travel to the fullest.
Despite high prices at the pump, RV travel is still one of the most
cost-effective and enjoyable ways to travel. The biggest advantage? You can
easily control your travel budget. Here are some simple ways to cut costs on
travel:
- Join Good Sam Club
and enjoy valuable member benefits and discounts.
- Spend less time driving and
more time enjoying. According to the RVIA, 52% of RV owners plan on spending
more time at campgrounds (or in one place) and 45% will reduce the distances
they travel this season. Take advantage of destinations that offer plenty of
activities your family enjoys.
- Keep your tires properly
inflated.
- Use the air-conditioner
sparingly. When the air-conditioner is running, it puts an extra load on the
engine, increasing fuel consumption.
- Avoid long idles. If you plan
on being stopped for more than one minute, shut off the car. Restarting the
car uses less fuel than letting it idle for this time.
- Keep the latest edition of the Trailer Life Directory
in your rig so you can quickly locate campgrounds and attractions offering a
discount to Good Sam members.
- Protect your RV and your
family while on the road with Good Sam Emergency Road Service
