What doe's it cost to store a RV
I just bought a newer Class A and it's 33FT and the old rig is 27FT and the newer rig may not fit down my driveway. So what can I expect to pay for storage of the RV? I live in California in the Sonor...

I live in the city, with very strict HOA codes, so my absolute best nearby is probably a 20' "B".
Storage here is expensive, and even worse, RVs are common theft/vandalism targets. Even if a tweaker can't get into a rig, they love opening storage bays with a "master key" (a crowbar/long screwdriver), or just grabbing batteries/propane bottles for use as meth lab apparatus.
If you get a storage spot in an urban area, take the televisions off the walls, put them on towels in a drawer. That way, if your rig is hit, you are out just those, not having to pay money for new walls after the mountings were torn off. I'd also find a junk CRT TV, something heavy and non-functional, but looks OK... stick it in the outside compartments (leave the compartments latched, but unlocked with multiple signs saying so). The TV may disappear, but your rig likely won't be vandalized.
I decided to have storage about 40 miles from where I live. The rig is well-protected. Downside is that it takes a good chunk of vacation time for pickup/dropoff, so I end up paying a monthly visit to check and run items, and that's it until winter comes.
