South America??
Has anyone actually RV-ed in S. America seeing as this sub-forum has S. America in the subject? Would you rent an RV there, or somehow ship one there? My bucket list has a visit there, but not very...

Don't want go anywhere where it's risky.
Best not to dwell too much on the risks involved in normal everyday living then. Getting into a car is one of the riskiest things you will ever do and yet you don't give it a second thought. About 40,000 fatalities per year in the USA
There are a million blogs from travellers to central and south America.
Moglander.com is one who has finished and he has a list of similar blogs on the right side of the page "BlogRoll" and each of those will also have lists of other blogs. Enough reading for years.
We have bought two vehicles there and spent 9 months so far in Argentina, Chile, Brazil, Bolivia and Peru and currently have the vehicle stored in Peru for when we return in about 5 months to continue where we left off.
Safety?? Just as we did in Mexico for three months, we boondock wherever possible and have had no significant problems that we haven't had similar in the USA.
No bears!!!!
Links to Photos with fairly extensive captions and maps are in my signature.
Have you researched this? It's a wild place . I would'nt even consider it personally knowing what I do.
Sigh!
So much to see here at home.
said with dying last breath in many cases.
Home will be there til the day you die, but even when overseas travels start closing off due to ill health and finances and physical ability and all sorts of other factors, you can still continue to explore your own country - of course, provided you have good health insurance.
