Full-time RV’ing is changing the way Americans live
A new trend is sweeping America. Jaded by the traditional lifestyle of brick and mortar homes, wannabe wanderers of all ages are hitting the open road to start life anew in a recreational vehicle.
In the past, RV’s are most commonly used for long-distance vacations or recent retirees looking to explore America in their Golden Years. Just like the Tiny Home craze that has captivated our collective imaginations of exploration – much like how the pioneers felt about Manifest Destiny – Americans are looking for a simpler way of life.
No, this isn’t just a trend of a midlife crisis. They desire something more than what a traditional 9 to 5 job or cookie cutter home can offer. These bold road warriors are also looking for a more practical, yet authentic lifestyle. The fact is, more than a million Americans live full-time in a recreational vehicle and they aren’t motivated by financial desperation.
Digital Nomads change the way we look at sustainable living
Known as “Digital Nomads” or “full-time RVers,” they’ve bucked societal norms and shocked family members by living their lives on the open road. Sounds sort of romantic doesn’t it? We thought so, too. Aside from the obvious metaphor of America’s love affair of living life on the open road, many couples who have made the leap have reported an overall happier and stronger marriage.
Sporadic nomadic traveling isn’t just for retirees or the “young at heart.” Americans of all ages have emptied their savings account to join the caravan. More than 10.5 million American households now own at least one RV, which is an increase of three million just a decade ago. Also, more than 50 percent of those sales are now going to younger couples. In retrospect, the RV craze might be the only modern American trend that has transcended multiple generations. Well… besides Facebook, of course.
RV’ing is a generational overhaul
Unlike Facebook or any other social media platform, however, Digital Nomads are looking for more of a disconnect rather than to be helplessly tethered even more to our modern society. Even for those folks, who are not ready to fully commit to this modern Oregon Trail, Rv’s remain a great way to wind down and escape from society. We give us a respite from the daily drudgery of going to work and paying bills.
For those not quite ready to fully commit to the RV lifestyle, we have a line of customized metal RV covers that give your vehicle the protection it needs while you take care of your adult responsibilities. Available in almost any size imaginable, a RV cover shields your toy from blustery winds and snowy winter days. They are also advantageous during spring and summer thunderstorms when wayward tree limbs and hail can wreak tremendous damage on your RV.
Just like a garage, you can customize your metal RV cover
Choose from metal RV carports as long as 61’ and as wide as 40’ for extra large RVs, or even 21’ and 26’ RV carports and covers for motorhomes or trailers. You can order the sides of your RV shelter to be along the top or bottom or even fully enclosed for complete protection against the elements.
Many customers choose to use 12 gauge steel frames for their RV carports and covers for added durability. The choice is yours when it comes to protecting your RV! You can also add side paneling to protect your RV from blinding UV rays, which can prematurely age your vehicle.
