RVing solo

I am planning to drive from New York to Fort Launderdale, then onto Yuma, Arizona. Is this a crazy idea for a single woman without a gun? Also, please explain why you think what you think.
  • No, I don't think it's crazy at all.

    I don't think it would be crazy for me (a single guy) to do the same sort of trip, provided employment and financial and other mundane details cooperated, and I don't see any reason why it should be different for a woman rather than a man. There certainly are some neighborhoods where one would not want to be, whether man or woman, armed or unarmed; but the best solution is to avoid those neighborhoods if possible and basically just exercise a bit of common sense.

    This time of year, I think it not the least bit crazy to prefer to be someplace more southern than New York!
  • Gee, I hope so. My reason for thinking that? My daughter has been full timing alone for over a year now and last I looked, she was very sane.
