Road trips are the ultimate adventure, but not all routes are created equal. That’s why we asked our readers, “Which type of road trip do you enjoy the most?”—and the results are in! From winding coastal highways to rugged mountain passes, RVers have spoken, and it turns out the ocean breeze is the real MVP.
If you missed this poll, don’t worry—our newsletter is always cooking up fun questions, so make sure to vote next time and have your voice heard! After all, who doesn’t want to help settle the great debate of “beach vs. mountains vs. desert vs. city traffic (yikes)?”
The Poll Results: A Clear Winner (and Some Surprising Underdogs)
Here’s how the votes stacked up:
| Road Trip Type | Percentage |
|---|---|
| Coastal drives | 52% |
| Mountain passes | 22% |
| Urban exploration | 22% |
| Desert trails | 4% |
As you can see, coastal drives didn’t just win—they dominated. Meanwhile, desert trails got fewer votes than a cactus at a water park.
Why Coastal Drives Are the Beyoncé of Road Trips
Let’s be real: coastal drives are the superstar of road trips. With ocean views, salty air, and plenty of seafood stops, it’s no surprise they took over half the votes. Plus, nothing says “I’m living my best RV life” like parking by the beach and pretending you’re in a tourism commercial. Meanwhile, mountain passes and urban exploration tied for second place—apparently, some folks love a good switchback or a city skyline, even if parking an RV in downtown traffic is basically an extreme sport.
Desert Trails: The Underappreciated Underdog
Poor desert trails—only 4% of the vote. Maybe it’s the lack of shade, the relentless sun, or the fact that “scenic cactus views” don’t quite compete with crashing waves. But hey, at least you’ll never struggle to find a parking spot!
Final Thoughts: Why the Ocean Always Wins
So why did coastal drives take the crown? Simple: they offer the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure. You get stunning views, cool breezes, and the constant temptation to pull over for ice cream or a beach nap. Mountains and cities have their charm, but let’s face it—nothing beats the sound of waves outside your RV. As for deserts? Well, maybe they’re just waiting for their moment in the (less scorching) sun.
