Resources WE use as full-time Rv'ers
Wholesale warranties
There are a couple things my husband and I always disagree on, however I usually win! One is having a warranty! When we purchased our RV we had an warranty through the dealer. In December 2016 after much research we decided to go with Wholesale Warranties. They are great to work with and we have been extremely pleased with what they cover (based on the warranty we purchased). They respond to the repair place promptly and pay them promptly which many warranty companies do not do. Just this year, 2019, we have used them to replace the compressor in our air conditioner, motor in our big slide and our transfer switch. Wholesale Warranties helps us remain "Happy Campers"!
Passport America - Discount Camping
One way we save while traveling is with our Passport America Discount Card. It's only $44 annually. It is good at over 1800 campgrounds. You can search for campgrounds on the Passport America Website or they have a free app you can download. Normally if you use it two nights it's paid for itself!

Escapees - Mail service & Much more
One of the most asked questions on any RV site/Facebook Page is: "how do you get your mail". Escapees in Livingston, TX has been our domicile/mail forwarding service from day one. Plus when we first started using Escapees our address change saved us enough on auto insurance to pay for the cost of the membership. 10 years later we are still happy. Wherever we are we just contact them and within 2-3 days we have our mail. Escapees receives and holds our mail (including packages, certified, and registered mail) for us. When we're ready to have our mail forwarded we just call, email, or send instructions online with where we want them to send it. Membership also includes a monthly magazine full of information from fellow RVer's which we really enjoy. They also have many other services we have not taken advantage of but should:
- 15- 50% discount at over 800 commercial RV parks.
- 18 Escapees parks with a choice of short- and long-term stays. (We have stayed at the one in Livingston!)
- An online mapping tool, complete with reviews, directions and contact information.
- The RVer Job Exchange matches job opportunities with traveling workers who want full or part-time work.
- Large rallies and casual events, some with a focus on education and time to get to know your fellow RVer's.
- Discounts with several industry leaders offering ways to save you money on some of the best products and services out there.
- Xcapers - for the new generation of RVer's.
RecPro
We love the results of the furniture we ordered from RecPro. The quality, color, how they fit, comfort! They also recently started making Driver and Passenger Captain’s Chair’s which will be our next purchase. As I follow RecPro I’m finding out they have almost everything RV related. In fact, they are also now making custom baggage doors which I’ve seen many people searching for. They stand by their product. We had an issue and they immediately handled it!!! If you are looking for furniture or any other RV related items, please check out RecPro. If you like what you see and place an order would you please consider using my referral code ENJOYINGLIFE. With this code, you will receive 5% off and I will receive 3% which will help keep us on the road enjoying life!!!
Weebly
It's easy to communicate with your friends and family while on the road with a Weebly Website/Blog!
I had been considering doing a website or blog for some time. In fact, Jim and I both wrote some content when we previously traveled in the RV and were signed up to do one. Well it never happened. As we all know, technology changes rapidly. I knew there were several options for doing a website fairly easily so I started researching. I probably looked at between 10-20 and narrowed it down to 4 or 5 which I researched even further. For me, Weebly seemed to be the easiest, most cost-effective option. Added advantages include that it automatically does a "mobile" version. That may not be the correct way to say it but since so many people use their mobile device now to access the internet that was important. It also has a blog option which I look forward to using. In addition, there are tons of tutorials to help make it easy to use. I could go on and on but so far I am extremely pleased with my selection!
