#ThisisRVing
This summer, RV Trader is partnering with Fulltime Families and Jellystone Park Camp-Resorts to show America what RVing really looks like.
The Fulltime Families 6-member crew will visit 7 Jellystone Parks across 5 states and stop in at 4 of America’s best RV Trader dealerships to see family-friendly layouts available on dealer lots this summer.
Traveling full-time in their RV since 2010, Kimberly and her family are encouraging other families across our great nation to go on adventures together and reap the rewards of family Rving.
The journey is currently unfolding across social media as the family gives a front row seat to this 1,000 mile journey from Sunny Florida to Elkhart, IN – the home of many trendsetting RV manufacturers.
Through articles, Instagram shots and YouTube videos, newbies and veteran Rvers alike will become road trippers, witnessing first-hand what it really looks like to RV as a family.
Will you join us on the adventure?
This is RVing!

5 Under $50: Little RV Items that Make a Big Difference
There is no shortage of gear available to the RV enthusiast. You could go broke stocking up on all of the gadgets that some consider absolutely necessary for an enjoyable RV trip.But over the years, we’ve found it’s the little things that make a big difference in our travels. Some items we use over and over again, whether on fall weekend trips or month-long summer adventures.Here are five inexpensive products that you will always find in our RV. They don’t cost a lot of money, but offer lots of bang for the buck.Premium Tire Pressure Gauge, ~$30Talk to any RVer long enough and you will probably hear a tire blowout story. Test your tire pressure on every single traveling day to prevent this from happening to you. We learned this lesson the hard way, and now we have tire safety religion. A Premium Tire Pressure Gauge works well for us, and we actually travel with an air compressor as well, so we don’t have to worry about finding a gas station pump.Nightstick Dual Light with Dual Magnet Flashlight, $32We use a flashlight so often at the campground that it was worth it to spend a bit extra for a quality one. We love this Nightstick, which has two lights–one that shines forward and one that casts light down toward the ground. Two built-in magnets allow it to hang nicely on the RV fridge so it’s always easy to find.Collapsible Containers – varying prices, ~$10Anything that folds down flat when not in use is a bonus for RV travel. Bins are so versatile and can be used inside or outside the camper for laundry, sports equipment or garbage. We particularly love how they make unpacking a breeze at the end of a trip.Packing Cubes, 3 Piece Set, $25Closets and cabinets can get messy fast in an RV, and packing cubes are one of the best ways to keep clothing organized on a trip. Every family member has a different color, and our kids store theirs at the end of the bunks. You will be amazed at how much can fit into a single cube!French Press Coffee Maker, $32We love our coffee, and we take camp coffee pretty seriously. After experimenting with many different products, the French Press has earned a permanent place in our RV. Since no electricity is required, you can easily use it even when boondocking or dry camping. We use the 34-ounce model because, with three young kids, there is never enough coffee in the morning.Want more practical, affordable, and fun tips for RV travel?
