Colleen and her engineer husband, Alan, have travelled extensively through the USA in a 30’ motorhome. So what? Lots of people are traveling like that in America … but not many Europeans! At first it seemed an impossible thing to do but, with determination and the help of the internet, they solved the problems. Now they are able to spend two to three months, twice a year, meandering in their own time through rural America. Extraordinarily satisfying. Although an apparently expensive project, the fact that they spend most of their time “boondocking” (free camping in gorgeous places) makes the whole thing affordable. To keep the RV in a faraway storage facility, primed and ready for the next trip, took a great deal of head scratching and planning. This book is the product of their gathered experience: from maintenance of the RV to fixing an Onan generator – it’s all in there. We hope you will find the manual useful – maybe it will give you the incentive to try the same thing … the joys of having time to “stop and stare” in this busy world cannot be measured. Try it!
Please note: The book was written for American residents. If you are not a resident then you will need more information on buying and owning an RV in the USA. You should buy instead our book American Motorhome Lifestyle Handbook for Europeans: A foreigner’s Guide to Purchasing, Maintaining and Enjoying an American Motorhome/RV in the USA. All the extra information contained applies to anyone who is non-resident and wishes to own and travel in the USA in their own RV.
