What do you call yours?

Is it a Motorhome or Campervan?

RV's are straight forward.

Hi

As you can see we have an Autosleeper Executive not the largest motorhome but it still can be seen by some as a large vehicle.......like when we need somewhere to park or stopover at a pub or such ...then the conversation goes like this " is it okay to park my CAMPERVAN in the car park?.......so you see it all depends Laughing

We had a VW T25 Hitop for several years that was definitely a Campervan. We now have a Fiat ducato Timberland Freedom Hitop Van conversion that has fixed toilet, shower, oven, microwave etc etc and is in all respects a Motorhome. However we have to make the bed up each night and I use it all year round as a runabout, go to work in it, go to the supermarket etc and it will park in most carparks (sticks out a bit) and will go down narrow streets so I still think of it as a campervan and feel more at ease calling it that. We would never want a huge coach built or A Frame that is sitting in storage all winter or only used for long haul holidays. What a waste of money!!
Oh yes and we're going to fit state of the art TV, satellite etc so we don't miss out except for making the bed each night. All of 5 minutes DOH

Give me campervans any time.
