How would you like to try living in a luxury MH for a week?

FYI - The Travel Channel is running a sweepstakes contest, and the lucky winner will get a 7 day vacation in a luxury Class A motorhome. The itinerary includes the Grand Canyon, Sedona and Navajo Country... You just gotta answer a few multiple choice questions...

If you're thinking about getting into RVing, this might be a fabulous way to try it out!! OR if you already HAVE a beautiful Class A (lucky you!) or something smaller, or even just a car and a tent for now, here are some tips for great places in Arizona to go this summer...

Travel channel sweepstakes AND tips for great places to RV in Arizona...

Since it has closed, maybe I will be announcing to all that I have won soon... I did get registered a few times, even as late as yesterday, so it must have ended May 31... I see Rio one runs 1 - 30 June.

I already do

It's been a while since I was over there... as a kid my fav route from CG to Sedona was Schnebly Hill Road. I wonder if I could get the Class A through that OK?

This appears to be closed.

The only thing that comes up on Travel Channel's website is a trip to Brazil. That might be interesting in a class A, but I don't think that is what they have in mind!

Well, it would seem that in 7 days going between Phoenix and the Grand Canyon via Sedona you might travel 700 miles round trip. Call it 1,000 miles to be conservative. If you get 10 miles to the gallon, that's 100 gallons.

I think $500 would cover the fuel.

If it is a true luxury RV it is probably closer to 5 mpg. If you have that kind of money who cares about fuel economy. Last year my Daughter & SIL filled the tank on their '82 Bluebird for under $700.

They will give you $500 spending money too. That would be about 2 tanks of fuel. LOL

It depends what exactly their idea of a luxury RV is (I suspect it might not be a luxury RV by many RVers definition) but many DPs have a 150 gal tank and even though I think AZ has relatively low fuel prices, $500 isn't even a full (150 gal) tank of diesel ...

Who pays for the fuel ?

Actually, we have a pretty nice MH already. A luxury MH would, in my opinion, just have more glass and chrome to clean and polish. and probably white leather sofas for our dog to scratch and get dirty and white carpet for him to get dirty.
It would be nice to have a MH with 4 slide outs, just to have to extra room.
