This week, we share a study that shows that some people plan to camp MORE with higher fuel prices. Ford has been fined for faking payload numbers, a potential DEF shortage, a new 5th wheel hitch from @CURT, a safety alert for Roadmaster Nighthawk tow bars, and more. 
To claim your Roadmaster Nighthawk update kit, contact Jennifer Lee directly at 360-597-2434. If you prefer, you can also email Jennifer at jlee@roadmasterinc.com. Even if you no longer own your tow bar, contact Roadmaster so that ownership records may be updated.

316. The "DO NOT STOP" list and Best Places for Short RV Overnights

This week, is RVing the cheapest way to vacation? A recent RVIA report featured in RV Today Magazine seems to think so. Our thoughts on the data, plus are you new to towing or driving an RV (like Abby)? If so, we've got plenty of tips, tricks and first-hand accounts on ways you can safely build confidence to tow or drive your RV. This discussion is great for all you seasoned RVers (like Jason)!
