What can UK motorhome owners learn from the American RV scene? In this episode, Matt and Keith chat with YouTuber Liz Amazing about the rise of full-time RV living in the USA, the growing popularity of boondocking (off-grid camping), and how the vanlife trend is attracting younger travellers, families and remote workers.
From high-clearance 4x4 campervans to the pros and cons of lithium batteries, it’s a deep dive into how RV life in the States compares to motorhoming in the UK and what buyers here need to watch out for.
Liz also explains why she avoids new RVs, how to buy smart in a cooling market, and why buying used often means better build quality.
