Book excerpt: Are you a beginner who knows nothing about RVing? With over 11.2 American households owning an RV, times are changing. RVing has exploded onto the scene, and with that come many new RVers. Too many times, I see newbie RVers make the same costly mistakes over and over again. Do you know what caused the power to go out or why the RV is leaking? Not everyone is born a handyman. Or are you stressed about picking the right RV? I mean, there are a ton of options. Do you even know how much money you're leaving on the table from clubs and discounts? Probably not. When starting out, it can be so overwhelming that you don't even enjoy your brand-new RV. New Rvers continue to repeat history, but I believe you can rewrite the narrative. In this book, you will discover How to save $340 a year with a free RV app The perfect time to buy an RV What you need and don't need to pack Why you keep on having RV plumbing issues The best way to handle the dreaded black tank What you need to protect your RV from unclean outlets How to get the fastest internet on the road The Average RVers spends 3-4 weeks in their RV each year, and the living expenses can range anywhere from $1400 to 3,000 a month. Learning how to save on these expenses will keep you out on the road longer, allowing you to stay away from that tedious 9-5 job. I continuously see people pack things they never use and forget the essential items they need. Packing doesn't have to be complicated, stressful, or confusing as people make it. New RVers burst pipes, breakwater pumps, and create leaks yearly after year, just because they don't use the right products. It's such a simple fix, yet so many don't know about it. Did you know that by plugging into one bad outlet, you can completely fry your RV's electrical system? You think I am lying, but this happens every year to even the most experienced campers. Most RVers can't even get internet access, or when they do, they get trapped into a plan that's way too expensive. Rving has a steep learning curb, but getting over it should be a fun adventure, not a stressful, chaotic, and tedious process. You can start thriving and get over the beginners learning curb even if you've never stepped foot in an RV before. If you want to make RVing feel like a vacation and not a giant chore, then scroll up and hit the add to cart button.

Yes, you got it right up to 1000 x return on your investment in this little book and education it provides you. If I only had knowledge about RV facts and awareness about traps before RV purchase, it would save me much more than 1000 x and this is fact for many people which experience I am witting about in the book for learning purpose of everyone.

Education is investment in our self and that may be the best investment we can make. If you know someone that is about to buy any kind of RV or someone that is sunbathing RV in storage or backyard instead of using it. With this book as a gift, you can save them many Thousand's, and improve the quality of their RV'ing experience significantly. A vast majority of people overpays RV boldly. They could get years of eating out for what they overpay for RV. And a waste majority of people overpays extended warranty even more boldly. They could get lifetime fuel for what they overpay for extended warranty. I have heard a rumor that some states may limit margin on the extended warranty to 100% by law. It's your choice you can wait for government protection or you educate yourself and start making wiser choices right now. Most of RV user go through several RVs and lose many teen thousand's in the process of slow and expensive learning trough trade-in. Before they finally get the right RV that serves heir travel style and lifestyle well. You do not need to be one of them. One of my trade-in experiences: I overlooked only one thing, the number of toys we will carry with us. More precisely, I did not forget I was just not precise enough, what exactly where and how easy it will be to reach it-use it. Salesperson impresses me with enormous storage volume number... So I conclude we'll fit in somehow... I nearly faint when hearing the price for a trade-in of our class A for same size class A toy hauler two years later. As I was able to start breathing and gain conciseness, it was clear I did not pay enough tuition for RV school jet. I already spent a lot for RV schooling in the past so I slow down and start asking right questions...Same money as trade-in would cost, got us brand new custom-made class B and several years traveling, 160K miles on three continents. Trough lifetime of RV'ing on five continents I meet many people in different situations and notice too many time people are saving on the wrong end. I meet a couple that paid 150 K for RV and then runs out of money for traveling. In an outstanding RV kitchen with marble countertop, they microwave canned food that even their golden retriever keeps his nose away. If they would take little time and educate themselves and get clarity, how they will use RV? What kind of RV will serve their situation and needs best? They will get the same year, same quality and size RV for 99 K and have 50K left over for traveling. You can do a lot of traveling with a 50K in the pocket. Traveling and education may be the only purchase we make that enrich us. So spend less on RV purchase and more on traveling!. Good luck and God bless you.
