Very Thorough
This book is a must read for anyone even considering taking to the road in an RV for a long period of time. The book is very thorough and goes over tons of stuff that most of us wouldn't normally think of. A lot of simple living info as well as safety. It covers tips on how to store things and simply how to get the most out of your small space. It goes over the different types of RV's, what they come with and how to choose the best one for you. It goes over how to add a satellite, weight...really it went over so much. It is really great in even helping you decide whether you really want to go for it or not. It's a real reality check, yet doesn't try and steer you in any certain direction. It just gives you the facts and then some great info for in the case you do decide to get up and go.

The Pros and Cons of motor home living.
A very helpful book for those people who wanted to own an RV in the future like me. Since I was a kid I am curious what an RV is and I just usually see it on hollywood movies and I do not have any idea on how to have one and what are the pros and cons of having it. And now, after reading this book I still wanted to have an RV in the future. Because this book has helped me know what are the things I need to consider before owning one.

Very basic info!!!!!
Info is okay but could have had a lot more. I was interested because we are going on the road for a couple of years soon and wanted to see if there was info that we might need. We really knew as of this as it was just the very basic. How that the writer has basic outline maybe a rewrite would expand the sections and give more detail. Would have liked to see how to layout a trip plan, finding good campgrounds, traveling with pets and their needs and more.

Always like to promote camping in what every way you choose ...
Always like to promote camping in what every way you choose to go. We started out with a 10 X 18 tent with a separate floor. We learned quickly that those old canvas tents shrink when it rains so it's best to pitch them with some slack. We camped with three kids for years in that old tent. Then my husband built in an old delivery van with all the comforts of home, stove, refrigerator, air conditioner, etc. (no bathroom) and we camped in that for years. About ten years ago we bought a real RV and it works real well for us. Not real large or fancy but good to go anywhere and with a generator we can camp lakeside or in a campground. Love it! We are in our 80s now and have health issues so don't go so far or for so long, but we have years of happy memories camping with our kids and people we met along the way.

not very helpful
If the glaring grammatical errors don't put you off, this book might be worth reading. But it's not simply due to the extreme lack of detail. I would have liked to read in some depth about how one might deal with laundry other than a washer and dryer versus laundromat. Cooking choices and hints surely should go beyond folding handles an pans and two recipes for cooking. And not a mention of camping/parking options, costs, and why some might be better than others.

I was disappointed in this short book. Unless this is the very first book you have read regarding RVing, it is too basic and simplistic to justify its purchase. Even if this is your first book about RVing, there are better introductory texts. There were also numerous grammatical errors that were distracting. A quick and simple read, but not worth the Kindle price.

Very informative - great for beginners!
MOTORHOME LIVING FOR BEGINNERSCover Art: ExcellentWhat a fascinating little book! Most of us are molded by traditional and routine lifestyle and are oblivious to the options that are easily available in our day. This book by Jim Jackson describes one of the options as being an adventure in RV living. As described in his book, he makes it simple to make the transition with his step-by-step procedures and suggestions.We have friends that live in RV's full-time, going from place to place, meeting new faces--and their small kids love it! In fact, just this morning, my niece bought her dad one and I asked her to read Mr. Jackson's FREE (helpful) book.Check it out! Explore. Dream. Discover. Highly recommended for all!Review by author of: Children's Books: How Strong Are You, Little Wave? (ADVENTURE & EDUCATION KIDS BOOKS COLLECTION: BEGINNER READER: EARLY LEARNING) (VALUES E-BOOK)

Great book to start with.
A great beginner book, it made me understand the differences between the different classes of RVs. I will refer back to it when the time to make a final decision. Each type has its pros and cons, you just have to find the right fit for you. Good quick read, and I like that it is text to voice enabled.

Don’t bother if you’re not American
Disappointed that it’s not made clear in the description that this book is intended for Americans, travelling in the USA. Much of it is irrelevant if you’re in the UK. The layout and content is amateurish- just another hastily and lazily KDP self-published pamphlet (it’s very short). There are much better books out there. Don’t bother.
