7 reasons to own an RV
Why go RVing?
From freedom and family memories to real cost savings over flying and hotels, here's why so many Pennsylvania families make the switch to RV travel — in the words Fretz RV customers use themselves.
1. I'm free
RV owners often describe their RV adventures as free as a bird. Whether they're visiting friends and family or touring the countryside, they have the freedom to go where they want, when they want, for as long as they want.
2. Economy
RVing remains one of the most economical ways to vacation. PKF Consulting analyzed family vacations and found that a family of four flying and staying in a hotel would save 37% to 52% by traveling in a Class C motorhome or pop-up camper instead. Fuel prices would have to more than double for a typical motorhome vacation to cost more than flying and a hotel stay.
3. Pass the torch
Fretz RV has been serving customers since 1946, and we now have third-generation customers buying RVs from us. Studies show parents who took RV vacations as children are more likely to want to recreate that experience for their own kids — the RV lifestyle builds memories and values passed from generation to generation.
4. Know who's slept in your bed
With your own RV, you always know exactly who slept in your bed last night. Can you say the same about a hotel room?
5. Have pet, will travel
Why leave your furry family members behind or put them in a kennel when you can bring them along? Most campgrounds are pet friendly, and pets love camping as much as kids do.
6. "Are we there yet?" — not anymore
In a motorhome, kids can play games at the table, watch a movie, grab a drink, use the bathroom or have a snack right in the comfort of their own "home" — no more endless backseat complaints on long trips.
7. Skip the airport hassle
No shoes off, no liquids limits, no security lines. Flying has gotten less enjoyable every year — one more reason to hit the road in your own RV instead.
