RVing in the USA

Are people watching RVing in the USA?

While, like most of MotorTrend's shows it is half Infomercial, I am enjoying the half hour break from some, of the repetitive MotorTrend content.

Just watched it this morning, about the hot air balloon festival in Albuquerque. I enjoyed the show.

There's an additional RV show on MT about two hours earlier. I just recorded it, haven't watched yet. It has to be better than the one show that was on travel channel and showed a couple looking at three units of TT or RV and "oh my, what will they buy?"

Early Sunday morning on MT. I watch them, but get turned off sometimes when they show the high dollar RV's. I'm not rich.

What I'd like to see, which matches more of what Motor Trend usually airs on Sunday, would be a TT, RV, or tow vehicle maintenance show. Give us tips on towing, routine maintenance, DIY repairs, etc.

hour long show consist of 45 mins of commercials.. Actually, i get better enjoyment watching travel videos on Rumble and YouTube. If you want to see some wild and weird Desert formations in the Mojave Desert, Google Camping at the Trona Pinnacles.

On now. Escapees seemingly focused on newbies today.

Just turned it on for the first time. Waiting for the commercials to end, still waiting. Looks like they just tried to tip over a class A. I’ll turn it on next Saturday to get a feel for the show.

I don't see this having many more commercials than most other shows. But, I guess I'm spoiled. We always pause shows (in this case to make coffee). Then I FF through any commercials.

I actually thought that sway bar demonstration was the best part of the show

Here is the thing. I already pay too much for cable tv. Motor trend, paramount+, discovery+, ect are going to have to survive with out any funds from me.

LOL. While I agree cable TV prices are rediculous, I don't think anyone here can help with affordability. Motor Trend is part of my package. We plan to "cut the cord" within the next few years.

You've already watched what they have to offer... Full of re-runs.. you can see most of those on PLEX free... We cut our cable and been using Fubo TV (streaming) at half the cost of Direct with exact same ch line up

I have it set to record on my dish hopper, that way I skip commercials and they don't bother me so much anymore.
