Camping on the roadside has always been a part of the American
landscape, starting with covered wagons.
However, it was not until 1910 when Pierce-Arrow introduced the
Touring Landau in Madison Square Garden that ‘RVing’ as we know it
began. For RV enthusiasts who like to know these things, the Landau
included a chamber pot, a sink, a folding rear seat that converted
to a bed and a telephone that connect the passengers to chauffeur,
reports the RV Museum and Hall of Fame in Elkhart, Ind.
Whatever your call to the open road may be – an adventure,
family time, or solitude – preparation is key. When stocking your
cabinets with games and supplies, take the time to review your
insurance policy. Did you add some features to your RV? Do you need
to add more coverage to replace your personal effects? Should you
increase your emergency expense coverage? There’s a good deal to
review.
Once you’re covered, and if you’re having trouble deciding where
your next epic RV trip will be, you can’t go wrong with the
classics.
