 The best book for those new to RVing October 31, 2007
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
When hub and I decided to go on our first RV vacation we ordered up a batch of books from Amazon on the subject. This is BY FAR the best. Clearly written, funny, sympathetic to newbies, and most important, full of suggestions and tips to make your trip easier. It also has the best "what to bring" checklist of any of the books we looked at. We liked the book so much we took the author's advice and rented an RV for our vacation. We liked that so much we are now about to buy an RV just like we rented - and, just like the authors did with their first RV. Highly recommended - don't leave home before reading it.
 Hmmm...It isn't a horrible book but... September 17, 2007

I dunno, maybe I expected more. It is a nice book...if you're a complete dummy. I shouldn't complain when it's full of fluff mostly.
It only cost $11.50 on Amazon so I shouldn't really complain. But I feel I should warn you not to expect much. It's not a bad book really just kinda not too much information. I mean, do you really need to be reminded to take money and credit cards with you? I dunno-maybe it's just me.

Used this book before renting an RV out of our area (eg we flew to AZ, then rented RV), so we had to pack in advance. This book was the most helpful of the few I purchased. Packing Checklist and chapter on packing was invaluable. I would recommend this book to first time RV camping families!
Highly Recommended for New RVers!! October 27, 2006

A terrific book for anyone thinking about giving RVing a try. "RV Vacations for Dummies" opens with about a hundred pages of information on planning an RV vacation and about actually living in an RV. Some of the information in the first two parts of the book ("Getting Started" and "Ironing Out the Details") is a bit sketchy; however, it is more than adequate to get the traveler on the road. And that, after all, is really the point. Books are helpful in gathering the information needed to get started, but RVing is about "doing" . . . not just reading about "doing".
Our favorite parts of "RV Vacations for Dummies" are the 14 driving tours presented over nearly 200 pages in the latter part of the book. There is nothing like having a trip actually planned to stir up a severe case of "hitch itch" in the most experienced of RVers. The trips set forth in "RV Vacations" are enough to get even RVing "Old Timers" off of the sofa and onto the road.
We highly recommend this book for those new to RVing; however, even those with hundreds of thousands of RVing miles behind them will find value in these pages.
 Same book as Frommer's book. May 25, 2005

FYI: This book and the Frommer's Exploring America by RV (2nd Edition) are identical books.
