A trip in an RV shouldn't ruin your marriage … or your day
A trip in an RV shouldn't ruin your marriage or your day
Mistakes happen, especially when you're somewhere unfamiliar, but the results of a recent survey may still surprise you.
The survey found that among RVers, a spouse is more likely to be accidentally left behind than the dog.
A leading RV insurer, The Progressive Group of Insurance Companies, surveyed more than 1,000 RVers countrywide to uncover amusing mishaps they've experienced while traveling.
The survey found that the most common blunders made while traveling are:
driving away with the steps extended;
backing into something;
misjudging overhead or side clearance space;
not connecting taillights correctly; and
running out of gas.
The survey found that 53 percent of RVers spend a month or more each year traveling the open road, and 42 percent travel more than 500 miles per trip.
Traveling the open road in an RV can be a great adventure, but sometimes it gets a little bumpy. That's why RVers were also asked about their RV insurance in Texas. When mishaps happen, you want to get back on the road fastideally with all of your passengers on board.
Only 28 percent bought a stand-alone RV insurance policy with specialized RV coverages. In fact, 54 percent simply added their RV to their auto policy, and 14 percent didn't buy any RV insurance. "Although it is legal and you are covered for at least any automobile liability, it is not a good idea to simply add your RV to your auto Texas auto insurance policy," says Lucas Ziegler, agent at Texas Prime Insurance. "You will have a lot of gaps in coverage and you will be missing a lot of potential benefits like; RV roadside assistance, vacation liability, replacement cost valuation on your RV and more. Go to our website for RV insurance in Austin to learn more," says Lucas.
/>Although mishaps can sometimes be funny, they can also lead to costly damages. Simply adding your RV to your auto policy can leave you woefully under protected. It's important to know what coverages are available to adequately protect yourself and your vehicle. Moreover, when an insurance company specializes in RV insurance (or any specialty insurance) the claims adjusters are have more experience handling a claim. "My customers are generally more satisfied with the claims service and overall process when the claim is adjusted by an adjusters who does nothing but adjust RV claims," says Lucas.
"Progressive insurance offers one of the most comprehensive insurance policies in the market," says Lucas. "Progressive insurance Texas policies offer; replacement cost valuation, vacation liability, personal items, RV roadside assistance. Further, you can get a few discounts and benefits like; multi policy discount, diminishing deductibles, and more," says Lucas.
"There are huge differences in coverage and services from companies that specialize in RV insurance," says Jesus Olivares, RV insurance agent at Texas Prime Insurance. "Check with your insurance agent or do research online so that you buy the policy and coverages that are right for you."
