15 Signs You’re Addicted to RVing

Renting an RV
Your ceiling is leaky, your toilet doesn’t flush and you haven’t had a working dishwasher in five years… but your RV has new leather seats and a new state of the art navigation system.
Christmas is only one day… your RV travel is MONTHS of fun.
Who needs a new shirt or an ugly tie? You’d rather have money to pay your entrance to one of America’s majestic national parks.
Friends and family just know you’re gone most of the summer. In fact, they help rent out your house.
Some people have artwork, you have maps of all the places you’ve been. Honestly, you have enough to wallpaper the hallway. If you were in town more often, maybe you would do it
You don’t need pen, paper and a textbook to learn. The world is your classroom. The RV is like your study hall.
Directions are overrated. You have a GPS system. Sure, sometimes it’s off… but there is NEVER a need to stop and actually ask someone how to get somewhere. That would just be a waste of time.
The open road calls your name at night. Even if you don’t have a big trip planned, sometimes it’s just fun to go to the grocery store in your RV. That helps ease your travel withdrawals.
How can some people consider “going an hour up the road” a vacation?? You need hundreds, scratch that, thousands of miles to get out of your state and explore the country via road trip.
Some people work hard to upgrade their house, your goal is to get OUT of your house and see what America has to offer.
You don’t arrange your life by months, you time things by your trips. As in, the grandkids will come after we see Yosemite, and then Julie’s wedding is right before we go to Zion National Park.
You may notice people start to walk away from you at parties, but really they’re the boring ones! Don’t they want to hear about your latest excursion?
Your hometown is too small. It gets old seeing all the same folks at the local diner. You want to be anonymous in a brand-new city and state.
You spend at least an hour a day exploring your travel options. It’s necessary research to plan your next trip.
Your RV is your escape, your sanity. Home for a month… and you get the itch.
