Would you buy a used car from a well-dressed, friendly, middle-aged man or woman, who placed a classified ad, and who meets you midday at a restaurant? Oops! You may be getting scammed. Here are tips to protect yourself.

RVs are a unique way to travel with no hotels or crowded airports. It's just you, America's highways, and anything you want to see. Owning an RV, however, can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Minnesota has several RV rental agencies, many in Minneapolis or St. Paul, all close to the airport. Other rental agencies are in north- and south-central Minnesota.

Arizona is one of the most beautiful desert states in America. It is home to the Grand Canyon, the red cliffs of Sedona, mountains, and endless sights in Phoenix. And perhaps the best way to see all these attractions is to travel by RV whenever and wherever you like.

Since Florida is a peninsula, it is lined with beaches on every side but one. And you can visit the Atlantic Ocean, the Florida Keys, and the panhandle by traveling in your rented RV. Plus you can stop at Disney World and Sea World on your way.
