Everything RVs and More

Driving around today, I noticed something.

There are still a lot of RVs sitting in storage lots.

Not just a few. Rows and rows of them.

And it got me thinking...

What's the point of owning an RV if it spends more time parked in a yard than parked beside a lake, river, mountain, or campfire?

Maybe that's just me.

On the flip side, kudos to everyone who was towing today. The wind was no joke. Every time I saw a trailer on the highway, I was silently wishing them a safe trip and hoping they arrived with their nerves intact.

I've also noticed more and more "Walmart campers" lately. Sometimes that's part of the adventure, but there are a lot of other options out there if you're willing to look for them.

The funny thing is, all of these observations point back to the same idea: getting more value out of your RV.

If it's sitting in storage, maybe it could be earning income when you're not using it.

If you're traveling, maybe there's a more interesting overnight stop than a parking lot.

If you're road-tripping, maybe it's worth knowing which overnight spots are actually RV-friendly before you pull in.

And if you're towing through days like today, having the right insurance and roadside protection probably isn't the worst idea either.

I've put together a directory of RV-related brands and services that I've either used, researched, or found useful over the years. You might discover something that makes your next trip a little easier.

Now I'm curious...

How many nights has your RV spent camping so far this year compared to sitting in storage?

You know what’s funny?

A few years ago, the idea of having groceries delivered directly to your RV campsite would’ve sounded lazy to half the campground… and genius to the other half.

Now? After doing Instacart deliveries myself AND seeing full-time RVers use it while traveling, I kinda get both sides of it. Especially after long drive days, bad weather, breakdowns, or those “I really don’t want to unhook tonight” moments.

On the flip side, I’ve also realized it can actually become a pretty decent side-hustle for RVers trying to fund fuel, groceries, or campsite fees while traveling.

So I broke both sides down in a brand new guide:

grocery delivery for RVers
campground delivery realities
Instacart shopper side-income
what actually works
what doesn’t
and whether it’s worth it in 2026

For those of you who RELY on starlink, are you setting it up properly at campsites? Here's a practical article you can read to determine the best setup!

The basic Starlink RV setup is fairly simple. The harder part is learning how to set it up well instead of just tossing the dish on the ground and hoping the

Did it SNOW this May Long Weekend for you?

Are you ready?

May always feels like the real beginning of RV season.

Campgrounds start opening.
Reservations suddenly become serious.
And people start remembering all the little things they meant to fix over winter.

Some parks are already doing soft openings, while May Long is right around the corner for many others.

There’s just something about that first trip of the year that hits differently.

Windows open.
Coffee outside again.
Campfire smell in the air.

Who’s heading out for their first camping trip soon?

What’s the one thing you ALWAYS forget before the first RV trip of the season?

Be honest.
