    ^ additionally a lot of people with RVs don't use them around this time of year it's more of a summer/vacation thing. So if you post on and look/post on craigslist, someone might be able to do a rental for you for way cheaper than it is for you to do it through a dealership, because at least someone would be paying part of their payments when the RV would be sitting parked in storage somewhere. I've been looking into it but its kind of amazing how cheap RVs actually are. You can get a really really nice 2004 with levelers, shower, bath, new kitchen and everything for less than my SUV was when i bought it new (28k) which makes payments somewhere around 350 or less depending on how long they have it financed for (a lot of people finance RVs for longer than 5 years). Renting someones RV for a month its not being using it would actually be paying the payment and some down on the princible if they gave it to you for $500 (which would save you a TON on motels). You can add drivers to the insurance I think for little to no cost which is what my friend did for the time period I'm using his vehicle. You can tow your car behind it if you want. Most camping and RV hook up places range between $35-45 for RVs but you might also find some very nice friends along the way that will let you park on their street (which is what im doing right now in Seattle).
