What will we do when fuel reaches $6 per gallon?
I'd really love to move to an electric RV.
Electric? You're kidding right? Unless the energy density goes up many factors BEV is a pipe dream for the RV industry.
As long as you're not lead footing it a gas Class A is not horrible for MPG. I get 7.5 to 7.85 MPG in my rig and I've got a Toad behind me.
So $6/gal would suck, but my calculations for our most taken trips to Orlando show that once you factor in hotel costs that it takes it to $7/gal before you're not saving money taking the RV. Factor in "I'm in MY home, not some hotel room" and you can take it even further.
