We recently asked our readers a fun and intriguing question in our newsletter: “Do you often travel to Canada or Mexico in your RV?” The poll aimed to uncover the adventurous spirits among our RV community and see how many of you are crossing borders for your travels.

With the holiday season upon us, we thought it would be the perfect time to explore this topic. Remember, these polls are a great way to share your experiences and insights, so make sure to participate in our future newsletters to be a part of the results and findings!

Poll Results: Crossing Borders or Staying Home?

Drumroll, please! The results are in, and they are quite revealing.

  • A whopping 93% of you voted “No,” indicating that you do not often travel to Canada or Mexico in your RV.
  • Only a brave 7% of you said “Yes,” showing that a small fraction of our readers are taking their RVs on international adventures.

The Great North and the Sunny South: RV Adventures or Not?

So, what does this tell us about our RV community? It seems that the vast majority prefer to keep their wheels on familiar turf. Perhaps it’s the lure of the many fantastic destinations within the United States that keeps you grounded.

After all, why deal with border crossings when you have the Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, and countless other wonders right here at home?

Or maybe it’s the thought of navigating foreign roads and customs that makes you think twice. Let’s face it, the idea of explaining to a border officer why your RV is packed with what looks like a small department store can be a bit daunting!

Why Not Canada or Mexico?

For those adventurous 7% who do take the leap, hats off to you! You are the trailblazers, the Lewis and Clarks of the RV world. Traveling to Canada or Mexico in your RV can be an exhilarating experience, filled with breathtaking landscapes and rich cultural experiences.

Yet, for the rest of us, the comfort of familiar campgrounds and the convenience of not needing a passport seem to outweigh the call of the wild.

Conclusion: Why We Think the Results Came In As They Did

In conclusion, the results of our poll suggest that most RVers prefer the comfort and familiarity of domestic travel. This could be due to several factors: the ease of travel within the United States, the abundance of beautiful and diverse destinations, and perhaps a bit of hesitation about the logistics of international RV travel.

While the idea of exploring Canada or Mexico is appealing, the practicalities of such trips might deter many from making the journey.

However, for those few who do venture across borders, the rewards are undoubtedly rich and memorable. So, whether you’re a homebody or a globe-trotter, the world of RV travel has something for everyone. Safe travels, wherever the road may lead you!
