Fayetteville, NC (PRWEB) June 12, 2008 -- RV Education 101, a video and RV Information Company releases a new DVD titled, Drive your Motorhome Like a Pro. In this video, hosts Mark Polk (RV Education 101) and Lorrin Walsh (Professional driver & author of Drive Your Motorhome Like a Pro) provide the tools to help the RV consumer drive their RV like a professional driver. That means professionalism developed by the ongoing awareness of driving motor coaches, and the execution of unique driving techniques needed to become a safer and a more confident driver.
Mark Polk stated "Driving a motorhome, especially for the first time, can be very intimidating. The truth is with power steering, automatic transmissions and great visibility, almost any experienced driver can quickly adapt to driving a motorhome. The question is; are you driving it the right way? Lots of people have been driving motorhomes for many years without a real understanding of the dynamics and driving techniques of driving a large vehicle." Drive Your Motorhome Like a Pro is a complete video guide to professional driving techniques for beginners and experienced drivers. It takes commercial driving training techniques and converts them to layman's terms, and it explains basic rules you can apply to any vehicle you might drive.
Polk goes on to say, "Out of the fifteen instructional DVD's we offer, this is probably one of the best titles to help educate the RV consumer on such an important topic. I have always felt that driving a large vehicle, like a motorhome, requires some additional training above and beyond your typical automobile. I thought I knew a lot about driving large vehicles, but by the time we finished this project I realized there was a lot I didn't know."
Drive your Motorhome Like a Pro includes charts & hands-on instruction covering basic definitions, pre-trip inspections, setting the mirrors, seat position, steering, reference points, transmissions, driving, backing, braking and a bonus chapter on improving fuel efficiency.
Dawn Polk, co-owner, added, "We don't want RVers to be overwhelmed with their new RV lifestyle. Our goal with all of our products is to teach the consumer all that we can to make their RV experiences everything it should be, safe, fun and stress-free. RV owners can review our RV training videos as many times as needed."

Tips on Maintaining an RV
So you just bought a new RV. Or maybe it?s not the fact that it?s new; it?s more that it?s you that?s new to it. The RV itself is a mammoth of machinery you never in your life ever owned.

Bathroom Furniture For An Rv
Life in an RV can be wonderful or frustrating, depending on what you make it. The author lived full-time in an RV for two years, working on a commissioned book. Actually, she lived in two RVs, one after the other. The first was a 20' motorhome. Those of us who were "full-timers" rather than vacationers joked about the way to get along with your spouse in a small RV. Whenever you meet going in opposite directions, hug and pivot. We hugged and pivoted in the tiny 20' motorhome for 365 days. Then we "moved up" to a 30' 5th wheel and continued to hug and pivot for another 365 days. It was part of keeping a happy marriage while living 24/7/365 in a small RV.

RV Parks Modern Camping
What happened the last time you looked at your wife and told her that you wanted to go camping? You know, real camping with sleeping bags, a tent, and a campfire to cook the meals?
