rvtime.com exists to make RVing simpler to get into and easier to enjoy. Whether you’re renting your first camper for a long weekend, deciding which RV to buy, or living on the road full time, our job is to give you clear, honest guidance and the real numbers you need to make good decisions.
There’s a lot of noise out there: thin listicles, rehashed spec sheets, and “reviews” of products nobody actually used. We try to be the opposite of that. Straight answers, real testing where we can do it, and recommendations we’d stand behind if you were a friend asking.
Who rvtime.com is for
We write for people at every stage of the RV journey:
- First-timers and renters who want to try RVing without spending a fortune or making an expensive mistake.
- New and prospective owners figuring out which type of RV fits their family, their tow vehicle, and their budget.
- Active owners looking for the gear that’s actually worth buying and the maintenance know-how that prevents costly repairs.
- Full-timers navigating the real questions of life on the road, from insurance to internet to where to park tonight.
If you’re anywhere on that path, we’ve tried to build something useful for you.
What we cover
We follow the whole arc of RV life: rent, buy, set up, maintain, camp, and live. That means rental guides and city-by-city pricing, buying advice and honest model breakdowns, tested gear picks, step-by-step maintenance, campground and boondocking guides, and the practical side of full-time RV living. Start with our beginner’s guide if you’re new, or jump straight to the section you need.
How we work
A few principles guide everything we publish.
We’re independent and reader-supported. rvtime.com makes money through affiliate links, which means we may earn a commission when you book or buy through us, at no extra cost to you. That funding never decides what we recommend. If something isn’t worth your money, we say so. You can read the details in our affiliate disclosure.
We test and research before we recommend. Where we can get our hands on a product, we use it. Where we can’t, we base our picks on real specifications, owner feedback, and how a product actually holds up on the road, not on marketing copy.
We check the technical stuff with people who know it. RV electrical, plumbing, towing, and repairs are areas where bad advice can cost you money or safety. Our technical guides are reviewed by qualified RV professionals so the information is accurate as well as easy to follow.
We keep our guides current. Prices, models, and gear change constantly. We update our content so what you read reflects where things actually stand, and we note when a guide was last reviewed.
Who’s behind rvtime.com
rvtime.com is written and edited by Jason Newman, who researches, tests, and curates the guides, gear, and rentals we cover. For anything technical, our content is reviewed by qualified RV professionals so you get advice that’s both clear and correct. We’re a small, independent team, not a content mill, and we care about getting this right for the people who read us.
