When they first came out, nobody thought they would last, that they were no more than a passing fancy. But they now make up one of the most important, fastest growing slices of the entire recreational vehicle industry. We’re talking about; fifth wheel toy haulers. Although they were once made by only a handful of […]

Human beings have always been RVers of a sort. Currently, RVing is one of the most popular modes of vacation transportation.

When the fall season rolls around many RVers alter their style of dress, put a different wreath on the door, adjust their daily routines to accommodate colder mornings or potential overnight freezes. Some of the changes are tedious. Others are lovely. One particular fall association that many look forward to is Fall foods for the […]

Fifth wheel trailers have many uses and advantages. They are a favorite amongst the wild group at the sand dunes because they provide the storage room for dune buggies, sand rails, ATVs, etc. while also providing comfort and plenty of living space for a big group. The fifth wheel RV is also popular amongst retired […]

Many parents go to great lengths to provide their kids with an RV vacation. Some parents place the greatest importance on pulling kids away from all the electronics that seem to invade every aspect of life for today’s youth. The removal from the digital extravaganza is temporary at best so parents should have a plan […]

The amazing state of Colorado boasts 26 ski resorts, more than 100 vineyards, and over 120 craft breweries (more per capita than any other state).

Anyone regularly in charge of providing sustenance for a group or family is constantly on the lookout for new recipes, new snack ideas and new ways to present the same staples they’ve been eating for years. This is an unavoidable kitchen phenomenon. Every chef or amateur cook is going to adopt certain methods and staples, but will eventually want to try something new. When it comes to RV cooking, this can be a little more difficult, but RVers should never let that scare them away from a new recipe or cooking method. Fifth wheels can come with every feature in the traditional kitchen and RVers who find that their fifth wheel is lacking a specific element or that they simply miss an aspect from kitchen’s past…they can always make a change and have their RV’s kitchen space updated to suit their needs. It’s as simple as that.

August has officially become the “back to school” season. Most are setting their summer travels aside and heading home to get grounded again. They’re getting their kids back in their at home routine to prepare for the beginning of another school year. These folks will most likely travel here and there throughout the year, but save the majority of their on the road adventures for summer and other major holiday breaks like Spring Break and Winter Break. Then there are the RVers who aren’t ruled by the school calendar. This unique group of travelers has chosen to home school their children in the fifth wheel camper.

While most children still have the summers “off” from the traditional, regimented school schedule, that doesn’t mean time shouldn’t be spent furthering their education over the break. At the very least, summer vacationers should consider a summer reading list. It’s an easy way to keep the brain active even while spending family vacation time traveling in the fifth wheel.

Fifth wheel trailers are often outfitted to drastically decrease the need for packing. This is one of the many advantages of RVing. Due to the fact that the RV provides accommodations for traveling as well as a substantial amount of storage for items needed while on the road, many lose the stress and worry that is often associated with “packing for a trip.” While this is one of the advantages of the recreational vehicle, it can also lead to a recurring problem.

Many modern day drivers and RVers have access to roadside assistance coverage. It is convenient. It is affordable. In fact, it is often included in the price of normal automobile insurance for regular family cars, the fifth wheel trailer, motorized RVs, etc. The general idea of roadside assistance is to have a backup to call in case of emergency. We recommend viewing the roadside assistance coverage not as a backup, but as the one to call first. It decreases the stress of “finding” someone who can drop what they’re doing to help with your roadside emergency. It also avoids the issue of out of town roadside assistance needs for those who are on the road in their fifth wheel trailer or other RV.

Many parents have already made plans for this summer. Some even have detailed itineraries outlining the basic summer agenda so there’s no confusion. Suzy might have dance on Tuesdays and Thursdays and Billy could have swimming every weekday morning at 7am and Nelson signed up for football and has a month long camp mid-way through the break. Mom and Dad both work and have limited times during which it would be appropriate to take time off work. This sort of summer schedule is becoming more and more common. It’s the reason that it’s also becoming more and more common for families to decide they don’t have time to take a summer vacation. They’re too busy. Keep it simple this summer with one of the popular fifth wheel trailers. Recreational vehicles are a great way to maximize a travel budget and to enjoy quality family time, but for many, the greatest advantage is spontaneity. The getaways don’t have to be weeks long anymore. More often than not, families are indulging in multiple day trips throughout the summer. The RV allows them to do so without wreaking havoc on their finances.

Everyone has a Bucket List. It might be mental. It might only have a few things on it. It might even be completely forgotten for long periods of time. It doesn’t matter. The vast majority of individuals have things they someday want to do or see and when it comes right down to it, that’s all a Bucket List is. Some aren’t aware of the fact that the RV lifestyle is completely indicative of all things Bucket List related. Many RVers were actually led to the RVing life by their own personal Bucket List. What is it about the 5th wheel toy hauler and other versatile RV choices that are so amenable to the completion of items on the lifelong “to do” list?

Most firmly believe that dieting and traveling don’t mix. The majority of travelers tend to reach for high fat, easy access foods while on the road, but this is a choice. RVers can just as easily choose to use their time away from home to pick up new eating habits, develop a healthier lifestyle and get away from the old routine that has led to the need for dieting. The fifth wheel trailer shouldn’t be viewed as a problem when dieting. Instead it should be viewed as an opportunity.

This month fifth wheel camper owners have the opportunity to indulge in what they love while supporting the government. That’s because April 21-29, 2012 is National Park Week. It’s the week that America celebrates the 84 million acres of awe inspiring scenery, historic and cultural landmarks and amazing wildlife if natural habitats throughout the nation. RVers everywhere should take advantage of the opportunity to get in their fifth wheel camper and get to the nearest national park. Get in the RV, head to the park and then get out! Hike the trails, discover and learn, and share memories with loved ones during this year’s National Park Week.

Fifth wheels and National Park destinations are favorites amongst the RVing crowd. As is the case with chocolate and peanut butter, the two simply go together beautifully. They compliment each other and create something unique that most agree is even more likable than each ingredient alone. RVers who haven’t yet dipped their traveling toes in the National Park arena are missing some of the most easily accessible, affordable, and amazing destination locations on the list of RVing hot spots.

Fifth wheels feature spacious, often luxurious floor plans. Many have a surprising number of amenities and features. Some might even say they offer all the comforts of home and more. This can lead to dissent amongst the ranks. Some RVers will find themselves indulging in the luxuries offered inside the fifth wheel RV instead of enjoying the hot spots and local sites that are right outside. One way to get everybody on the same page is to announce a night of cooking around the campfire. There’s nothing like gooey Smores to clear out the fifth wheel and get everyone out in the great outdoors.

Part of the beauty of the RV lifestyle is the sheer accessibility of the outdoors. Many find that they can extend the time they spend enjoying the beauties of nature by using outdoor grills attached to their fifth wheel trailers when preparing meals. Some RVers feel very comfortable grilling, but there are those who are new to the experience. If grilling isn’t part of the RVer’s cooking repertoire, helpful hints and tips and recommended tried and true recipes should be considered to increase the chances of success. That way the learning process is enjoyable and will result in an RVing future filled with grilling success and tasty meals both prepared and enjoyed in the great outdoors.

The fifth wheel is one of the most popular types of RVs on the road. It is prized for its spacious floor designs aided by the slide outs that have become common in recent years. Many RVers find that they can maximize their comfort as well as their ability to “vacation” on the road through its unique features. Many recreational vehicle owners ensure this is the case by identifying the accessories and tools that will maximize their RVing experience.

The 5th wheel toy hauler is a bit of a conundrum for some RVers. There’s a lot of confusion. There are also several myths that should be discussed in order to get a clear idea of the 5th wheel and even more specifically, the 5th wheel toy hauler.

I’ve purchased more than my fair share of recreational vehicles and of all those that I’ve owned and made use of, fifth wheels are my favorite. Fifth wheels might not be the best choice for EVERY RVer, but they are definitely the best choice for me and I would have to guess that their advantages would make them the best option for a pretty big group of RVers.
