RV ShareFor many, the thought of travel this summer might seem intimidating. Airport security queues, hotel rooms and middle seats feel as foreign as the destinations that they used to accompany. But what if you could still travel this summer without having to stay in a hotel or homeshare, or set foot on a train, bus or airplane? RVshare allows you to do just that. Simply input your location, dates and the number of people and you’re met with tons of RV rentals designed to help you tackle the great American road trip. RVshare works by linking RV owners with would-be RV renters. Whether you’re looking for a luxury motorhome or a more economical camping trailer, there truly is something for everyone. With no excuse not to travel this summer, the only question is where are you headed?
