About This Quiz
RV's are sort of like camping for people who don't like camping. You can go pretty much anywhere you want to go, from big cities to highways, to national parks, and not have to worry about where you are going to sleep at night, or even how you are going to get where you are going. Basically, you are cruising around in a hotel on wheels, except for the fact that all the amenities that your hotel has to offer is up to you. Whether you want things to be bare bones with nothing but the necessities, or if you want your R.V to be as tricked out as something you would see on MTV's "Cribs," you can do it either way, as long as money is no object.ÂÂ
Once you decide what your RV is going to look like, then it's time to figure out where you are going to go on vacation, and yes the two things do have a lot to do with each other. Where you end up taking your RV has a lot to do with what is going on inside your RV. Take this quiz and find out where you and your RV should go on vacation.
