RVIA - Consumers - Recreation Vehicles - RV Rentals: Try It, You'll Like It RV Rentals: Try It, You'll Like It With the growing popularity of RV travel, the rental business is booming. There are now recreation outlets nationwide renting motorhomes, folding camping trailers and other vehicles, giving non-owners the opportunity to enjoy the fun and freedom of an RV vacation. For someone who loves RV travel but can't commit to ownership or wants to give RVing a try before buying, renting a vehicle is a smart way to start. Why Rent an RV? Renting an RV is a great way for prospective RV buyers to take an RV on an extended "test drive" with their families and belongings. Rentals give prospective buyers the opportunity to try various types of RVs and learn from actual experience which one is best suited to their particular needs. When you rent an RV, you have the flexibility to make your own travel schedule as you travel in complete comfort. Rentals are the answer for families who already know and enjoy the RV lifestyle but don't want the responsibility of ownership. More than 400 national rental chain outlets and local RV dealerships offer state-of-the-art, late model year vehicles for rent. Most rental sites offer fleets of 5 to 50 vehicles and a growing number of campgrounds offer on-site rentals as well. A valid drivers license and proof of age are required by all rental agencies. Minimum age of driver varies with each rental location, so check before renting if you have any doubts. Rental companies give inexperienced drivers tips and test drives before letting you head out onto the open road. With automatic transmissions, power brakes and steering, RVs are easier to drive than you might think. Once you’ve chosen your vacation destination, you must determine if your plans are to rent an RV near your home and drive there or to fly to the location and rent an RV locally to see the sights. Many larger rental locations offer special fly-drive packages to out-of-town renters. Most RV rental companies provide "housekeeping" packages (dishes/pots/pans) at nominal fees. Most require you to bring your own bed linens and will supply you with bed sizes in advance. Before you rent, check with your automobile insurance carrier to see if the rental RV is covered under your current policy or if additional coverage should be purchased from the rental agency. Most of all, relax, enjoy and have a great family vacation experience! What Types of RVs are Available for Rent? Motorhomes are the most popular rental model; however, travel trailers, folding camping trailers, truck campers and conversion vehicles are now available at many rental outlets. Depending upon the season, motorhomes rent from $70 to $170 per day and truck campers and travel trailers average $50 to $120 per day. Remember, that fee includes your transportation, sleeping accommodations, and a kitchen which gives you the option of reducing food costs. Where To Find a Rental RV?

But I had the ultimate experience when I rode with C & E Motor Coach on a trip to Florida. The coaches were nice and clean. And the staff was awesome! I couldn't believe how comfortable the ride was. Unlike all those other coaches I've riden. I'm glad the coordinator of our trip chose C & E Motor Coach, they really know their business and how to please their customers.

The information given here are meant only asa general guide, it shouldnot be taken as absolute fact . The information provided inthis page can change at any given day. The majority ofmotorhomes tow a passenger vehicle referred to at a dinghy or a "toad" . Important safety, economic and legal issues are related to this activity. Thesafety issues relate to highway speed stability and handling. The legality oftowing a toad is most often ignored because most States do not enforce their ownregulations. Towing improperly can bevery expensive in premature wear and damage. A car can cause a seriousaccident if not set up properly or towed correctly. The safety issues relatedto power are safely merging into an Interstate and keeping up with traffic onhighways. RVs should, however, be more concerned about stopping and turningwhile towing a vehicle. Performing an emergency stop towing a 4500 lb vehiclebehind a Class C can be a bone chilling experience. Most of us will drive manymiles over years of RVing and never have to do a real panic stop, but then whathappens if you are the RVer who has to? Have any of you practiced a full panicstop with your motorhome with towed vehicles connected? If you haven't youshould so that you will know what really happens. Have you tried a highway speedquick lane change? Experienced drivers know that it is much easier to steerclear of an obstacle than to stop before you hit it. If you expect to pull a vehicle with yourmotor home, please use these guidelines when choosing a hitch and trailer: Hitch classification: Class 11. Do not usea load equalizing hitch. It could cause structural damage to the frame members. Limit the tongue weight of trailer ortowing device to a maximum of 250 pounds. Heavier tongue weights can damage yourmotor home rear frame and body, cause unstable driving and handlingcharacteristics, and will restrict your rights under the Owner care warranty. Do not tow a vehicle weighing more than3500 pounds, or which would result in exceeding the GCWR recommended by thechassis manufacturer. Heavier vehicles can cause braking problems, damage thehitch, the motor home structure or drive train, cause unstable driving orhandling characteristics, and/or restrict your rights under warranty. Changingthe trailer hitch will not increase the tow capacity of the motor home even ifthe chassis is rated at a higher level. The Gross Combined Weight Rating (GCWR) islisted on the wardrobe door tag. The GCWR is the maximum allowable weight ofboth the loaded motor home and towed vehicle. Exceeding the GCWR will causedamage to your motor home drive train or chassis, unstable driving and handlingcharacteristics, and will reduce your warranty protection. up Car / TowedVehicles This is about pullingcars behind motorhome. Drawbacks to tow dollies:Initial cost (but some towbar packages cost as much or more); maintenance,licensing, insurance, storage costs. Some CGs don't have space for them. Todaymost people will choose towbars because of convenience. Easy to hook up, lightweight, little maintenance cost. 10 years ago it wassimple deal. $100 ought to cover it. But some packages cost thousands. Selfaligning, self storing, ease of use, etc. Most cars will require amounting bracket. They come in two different styles, reflecting the twocompanies. Blue Ox uses under bumper mounts. RoadMaster built platfor that stuckout in front of bumber, and can store the towbar on top. It was the firstself-aligning towbar. Next step was Blue Ox designed towbar which left towbar onback of motorhome, rather than in front of the tow car. This accommodated tallerMHs with small cars, as it eliminated the need for a ball hitch. So Roadmastersaw benefit and adopted that style, with the Falcon. Blue Ox has Aventa orAlladdin (steel/aluminium). These differences can be difficult to visualize. Theimportant think is to have the dealer talk you all the way through the entireprocess of hooking up and detaching your toad. How many steps are involved? Howmany "pieces" are involved? How easy is it to do on your particulartow car? Safety cables .Federally required. But always cross them, so the cables will "cradle"the towbar if it should come loose. Also, it equalizes length of cable oncorners. Tow Cars :Which cars can be towed? Honda is a good tow vehicle, even though they don'tspecifically endorse doing so. Saturn is highly towable. Jeep Grand Cherokee isa popular choice. It's important to choose the "right" towable. See www.towingworld.com up Weightand Power Safely towing heavy toadsrequires that you have enough power to merge onto Interstates and to keep upwith minimum speed regulations. If you are underpowered or overloaded there is agreater chance of premature wear on you tow vehicle and premature failure.Overloaded motors and transmissions overheat and wear out or fail sooner than aproperly sized combination. If all the Interstates you drive on are flat, thenyou might be able to get away with overloading. up Weight& Stopping Stopping an overloadedmotorhome toad combination in emergencies can be very risky to life and limb.Even if you drive with greater following distances and very defensively you willprobably face a situation that require a panic stop. Un-braked toads can causean increase of 30 to 50% in the stopping distance. So leave plenty of room infront of you at all times for insure proper breaking distance. The most common accidentcaused by improper combination involves the following scenario. Obstacle ordanger causes the driver to stomp on the brakes. A heavy un-braked toad pushesup on the rear end of the motorhome, reducing the weight on the duals. Themotorhome then starts to jackknife and the toad pushes sideways causing anincreased jackknife. The motorhome then hits something like a rut in the roadand rolls over. The Toad will then causea neutral or slight pull action on the back of the motorhome during a panicstop. This pull will tend to keep the combination straight while maximum brakingis performed. We recommend towing the lightest toad you can enjoy (werent Volkswagen Cabriolet Convertible and the four door Jeep Cherokee ). Ifthat is a Chevrolet Tahoe, then you should drive a large diesel pusher. up Weightand Turning Another dangerousmaneuver you may have to perform to avoid danger is a high-speed lane change. Amotorhome with a heavy toad will almost immediately start jackknifing when thismaneuver is performed. With a light toad, little or no wiggle waggle will takeplace. Think about the weight involved. If the motorhome weighs 12000 and thetoad weighs 4000 lb (33%), then for sure the wiggle is going to happen. If themotorhome weighs 30,000 and the toad 2,500 lb (8.3%), then it will seem likenothing is back there. I think a 40% ratio is the absolute maximum for a toad. up Weightand Ratings/Warrant Many Class A, Class C,and Class B coaches have very low tow ratings and GCW ratings. Older ChevroletChassis are rated to tow only 1000 lb of un-braked vehicle weight. Older FordChassis are rated for only 1500 lb of un-braked weight. Any vehicle towed behindone of these chassis absolutely requires a supplemental braking systeminstalled. The GCWR or Gross Combined Weight Rating is the maximum the motorhome,toad and stuff can weigh to stay within the design limits of the chassis. Forexample, if your coach weighs 15,000 lb loaded and ready to travel, and its GCWRis 18000 lb, then your loaded toad can only weigh 3000 lb. GVWR is the GrossVehicle Weight Rating and is the maximum the loaded motorhome can weigh. If youoverload your rig, you won't necessarily break something immediately, but theservice life on the engine, transmission, brakes, suspension, and other chassiscomponents will be signficiantly shortened. I hear often of transmissionfailures on overloaded rigs. If you overload your rig, most often things heat upand cause premature wear on all components. up Drivingwith a Towed Vehicle For the vast majority of the time behindthe wheel, not much skill is required to get this big hummer safely down theroad. We have to remember that it hangs out on all sides more than a car, soparking, turning on residential streets, getting in and out of fuel stops, etcare our biggest challenges. These are not normally life threatening situationsand related accidents are only financial challenges. But at highway speed when acar cuts off our path, or a deer jumps from the side of the road, or some debrisor chuck hole winds up in our lane, turning a reducing radius curve in the rain,child darts out between two parked cars, or hundreds of other infrequentlyexperienced challenges is when we need all the driving skill and properequipment we can get. The accidents caused by these situations frequently resultin personal injury or death as well as large financial losses. Think about the physics of a 4000 lb weight, placed at the end of a lever (towbar) swinging side ways at 60 miles per hour when you try to do a quickavoidance lane change. Think about adding 25% (4000 lbs) to the weight of yourmotorhome (16000 lbs) and then trying to stop. Toads increase the stoppingdistance at highway speeds from 30% to 80% depending on all the variablesinvolved. Think about having to slow the combined rig down half way through anunanticipated steep incline and how hot the brakes will get during long downgrade driving. Think about having to avoid hitting a small child dashing outbetween parked cars. You each can add to this list the your experiences when youneeded to stop or maneuver to miss hitting some obstacle. I am arguing for all of us to be responsible motorhome drivers with the bestskill and equipment available; and to select dingies (toads) that will be thesafest rather than the most trendy or the most comfortable. When I see amotorhome towing a full size van filled with goodies, or a Suburban crammed fullof fishing gear plus a boat on the top, I wonder about the driver and what hisskill level is, and how he's going to feel when all that extra weight causes apersonal injury. We all know that accidents happen even with the best driver,equipment, conditions, etc., but we should not drive an accident waiting tohappen down the road on purpose. I am almost finished with the article comparingtoad braking systems that can add significantly to the safety of dingy towingbut the more I worked on it the more if felt driven to say a few works aboutcommon sense. up
