Trailer disadvantages
As for the minuses - here it should be called the journey itself in this van. Indeed, in Russia and neighboring countries, parking for campers with sources of replenishment is rarely found..
- And also roads are considered an independent disaster. Not all vans can carry Russian off-road, of course, there are such models, but they are quite expensive.
- If there is still parking for them, you will have to pay for them.
- For a large auto trailer and auto cottage you will need a special category of driver’s license.
- In addition, it becomes a problem if the owner lives in the apartment and does not have space to store the house. The price of annual storage can be compared with the cost of a budget tourist trip for two for several weeks.
Varieties of Motorhomes
The car-house can be of two varieties:
- Trailer wagon;
- Based on a minibus or bus.
The trailer house can be stationary and portable. Sometimes you can even meet trailers, tents. They can be transported assembled.Its advantages include the fact that it will loosen less during movement, as well as its height, due to which there will be no difficulties along the way.
But the disadvantage will be that it takes time to assemble it, so upon arrival at the parking lot you won’t be able to immediately relax.
A tent trailer is a combination of a wagon with an attached tent. Most often, the dimensions of such a trailer are small, so it won’t be able to accommodate a large company there. In a tent trailer, the dining area is usually located in the middle in the part that is on wheels, and two bedrooms are located on the edges.
Quite often there is a canopy in front of the tent, so you can spend time in the fresh air.
